Midnight Sun is the first novel in the Twilight saga from Edward’s point of view. It is very interesting to see the story through Edward because he has so many conflicting thoughts about Bella and her well-being around him.

My favorite part of this story is Edward’s protectiveness towards Bella and she doesn’t even know it.
