Edward in the sunlight was shocking. I couldn't get used to it, though I'd been staring at him all afternoon. His skin, white despite the faint flush from yesterday's trip, literally sparkled, like thousands of tiny diamonds were embedded in the surface. He lay perfectly still in the grass, his shirt open over his sculpted, incandescent chest, his scintillating arms bare. His glistening, pale lavender lids were shut, though of course he didn't sleep. A perfect statue, carved in some unknown stone, smooth like marble, glittering like crystal.

The first time I heard of this abomination was from a passing conversation with a friend who I know browses /a/, and recommended the book to me.
Of course, I'm more in tune with classical English literature, so I just brushed it off once I heard that it was about vampires or something inane like that.
