'Midnight Sun' By Stephenie Meyer Hits Bookstores In August 2020

Midnight Sun by Stephenie Meyer, which is a reverse-perspective retelling of the Twilight novel by the same author, had long been overdue and some of us thought it may not even be published at all. It had suffered a lot of ordeal after chapters of one of its earlier drafts had leaked online, was overtaken by the Shades of Grey mania, and a movie of the same name but of entirely different story (or is it) made some of us forget the book entirely.

Now, 12 years after it was initially anticipated, the author has surprisingly announced that the said book will finally be published in August of this year. Following this announcement is the unveiling of its familiar-looking and fitting cover art and its synopsis .

Check out the cover of Midnight Sun by Stephenie Meyer.

Synopsis

It's here! #1 bestselling author Stephenie Meyer makes a triumphant return to the world of Twilight with this highly-anticipated companion: the iconic love story of Bella and Edward told from the vampire's point of view.

When Edward Cullen and Bella Swan met in Twilight, an iconic love story was born. But until now, fans have heard only Bella's side of the story. At last, readers can experience Edward's version in the long-awaited companion novel, Midnight Sun.

This unforgettable tale as told through Edward's eyes takes on a new and decidedly dark twist. Meeting Bella is both the most unnerving and intriguing event he has experienced in all his years as a vampire. As we learn more fascinating details about Edward's past and the complexity of his inner thoughts, we understand why this is the defining struggle of his life. How can he justify following his heart if it means leading Bella into danger?

In Midnight Sun, Stephenie Meyer transports us back to a world that has captivated millions of readers and brings us an epic novel about the profound pleasures and devastating consequences of immortal love.

Midnight Sun by Stephenie Meyer will be released on August 4, 2020.
