I'm sorry, I just don't like this book as much as the original. When he left, I stopped reading it.
This book kept me reading. I was upset by the twist and had to start next book right away.
This one was painful at times but necessary. I recommend re-reading it after you've finished the Saga. It's less painful once you know the end. We had to know Bella and Jacob's relationship and its complexities.
I liked this one a good bit less than Twilight.
The beginning of this book had potential, however, it spirals downward fast.
Bella slowly becomes a character that I can tolerate less and less. There are new characters introduced into the story with potential themselves.

The beginning of this book had potential, however, it spirals downward fast.
Bella slowly becomes a character that I can tolerate less and less. There are new characters introduced into the story with potential themselves.
Overall, I just felt that this book dragged on and on. Nothing memorable stood out from it that contributed to positive character or story growth.
THIS WAS WAYYYYYYY BETTER THAN TWILIGHT. Although you don't see as much of Edward, it's worth it in the end.
This novel was much more action packed than Twilight and much easier for me to get into. I am looking forward to reading the next two in the series!
" When the Cullens, including her beloved Edward, leave Forks rather than risk revealing that they are vampires, it is almost too much for eighteen-year-old Bella to bear, but she finds solace in her friend Jacob until he is drawn into a "cult" and changes in terrible ways."

Just awesome. I recommend this series to everyone. I keep hearing everyone complain how whiny Bella is, but she has her moments of strength too. I never expected anything that happened in the second book after finishing the first one. A nice surprise, and I can not wait to get my hands on the next in the series.
If you read the first book in the saga (Twilight, this is the second book) you'll know that Edward leaves Bella. Anyone who's been through a terrible breakup will be able to feel the emotion in this book. It is nice to see her relationship with Jacob deepen, though.
Well, I’ll say it again: I approached this series with the LOWEST expectations, I am embarrassed at how involved I am with the key players of this saga (they’re VAMPIRES for the love of god) and I am bitter, nay resentful, that I have to be at work today and not at home, knee deep in book 3.

Well, I’ll say it again: I approached this series with the LOWEST expectations, I am embarrassed at how involved I am with the key players of this saga (they’re VAMPIRES for the love of god) and I am bitter, nay resentful, that I have to be at work today and not at home, knee deep in book 3. Stephanie Meyer is an amazing story teller!!
After I finished Twilight I went to see the movie (Let me just say I thought they cast the film perfectly). That same night I went home and started New Moon. 200 pages later, I was still on the couch, about 3 glasses of red deep and 10,000 tissues into the most ludicrous sob fest of my life. The central story line of New Moon is gut-wrenching. There are parts where my stomach literally hurt because I was so worked up and heart broken. I just kept thinking to myself, no, Stephanie Meyer, no. You can’t do this to me. You can’t do this to Bella. You can’t do this to non-existent vampires everywhere.
Ugh! What is the deal? I can’t get enough of these books.
Rating: 5 out of 5 stars
Suggested With: Entire blocks of time and a complete sense of reckless abandon!
I cried for the entire first half of this book. Don't read if you have work in the morning. A real emotional roller coaster. Won't be as good with out the groundwork established by Twilight so don't skip.

It's a great book! The sequel to Twilight
This sequel to Twilight is more about Bella's werewolf friend Jacob and the warm friendship they developed after Edward left Bella.
I found this to be the hardest one to read. When Edward leaves Bella and she is so lost for so long...it's heart wrenching. And it makes the book move slowly. It is nice to see and learn more about Jacob.

The second chapter of the saga only deserves 3 and not four stars. This is due to the author's decision to introduce the werewolf topic...I honestly think that by doing this, Meyer introduced a cliche', something that we had already seen. The book really reminded me of the Underworld movie...
In any case, the story is compelling and a page turner. I really hope Meyer will not fuck this up by having Bella leaving Edward for Jacob, or else I will go mental..

Secondo capitolo della saga...mi e' piaciuto, certamente, ma merita una stellina in meno di Twilight per il semplice fatto di aver introdotto l'argomento licantropi...penso che i vampiri nella storia sarebbero bastati e avanzati. Con i lupi mannari si entra troppo nel genere classico, temo. A tratti mi pareva di leggere il copione di Underworld, un bellissimo film sulla lotta vampiri/licantropi, appunto.
Detto questo, la storia ti tiene incollato, c'e' poco da fare. Spero solo che nel terzo o quarto libro la Meyer non faccia cagate, e non mi tiri fuori una trama con Bella che lascia Edward per mettersi con Jacob perche' altrimenti sclero...
Per finire, ho letto questo libro in inglese, e la lingua mi e' piaciuta molto, mentre il linguaggio usato nella traduzione italiana di Twilight mi era sembrato molto scarno e banale.
Okay, I have to be honest - the first half of this book was really rough - depressing, and not much action. But I loved Twilight and was determined to follow through.

Okay, I have to be honest - the first half of this book was really rough - depressing, and not much action. But I loved Twilight and was determined to follow through. At almost exactly half way, something happens and suddenly the book is more interesting. I LOVED the second half. So, two stars for the first half, four for the second.
This book was so much better than the first. It kept me on the edge of my seat and I couldn't stop until it was finished. It took me a day to read this large book. Stephenie Meyer wrote these in a wonderful, suspenseful and romantic way.

The first part of this book made me so depressed when Edward left Bella and my heart ached as I read but I couldn't put it down because I had to believe that they would end up back together. Their reunion and the way she saves Edward's life is great and made me feel whole again. I felt so much better knowing Edward and Bella were happily together again as a couple.
Loved this book, I am totally addicted to the series now, I cannot wait to get my hands on eclipse!

Bella, once again mellodramatic, this time over Edward's absence, goes into a deep depression and becomes deluded with hallucinations and craziness (because that's the sign of a healthy relationship). She starts to hang out with Jacob and actually becomes a bit less crazy and possesses a bit more personality, I liked that. While the idea that Bella CANNOT function or remain an independent personality from Edward really annoys the crap out of me, I loved the pre-werewolf stuff Bella goes through with Jake. Rest is a waste and completely ridiculous.
as most second books in a series, I felt that this book could've been better, yet Stephenie Meyer does not disappoint. This book was fantastic, despite minor falling in the beginning of the novel.
