Twilight

I didn't know that a vampire love story would work. But it did. I was afraid that it was going to be a cheesy-high-school-teenage-romance-angst-ridden-flick (think High School Musical meets Interview), but it wasn't. It was surprisingly good.
Also, there are new ideas to the vampire mythology from this book/movie that I found surprisingly pleasant - diamond skin, sunlight immunity, and "vampire vegetarians;" and a few others borrowed - unique powers to each vampire, and possibly rival wolves.
