    Just a few pages in, I found that I had high hopes for this sequel. Edward leaves, and Bella is able to pursue a more appropriate relationship with Jacob Black and to try to re-kindle some normal friendships with her schoolmates. However the reprieve from Edward is all too short. From that point on, I found myself disliking Bella and all of her melodrama more and more with each page of this book.

  • I was devastated when Edward left Bella, not leaving a trace of the Cullen’s existence. I was distraught to see that Bella slipped into her zombie like state, not talking to anyone, not eating, not even remembering the months that passed by when she snapped out of her daze.

    I was devastated when Edward left Bella, not leaving a trace of the Cullen’s existence. I was distraught to see that Bella slipped into her zombie like state, not talking to anyone, not eating, not even remembering the months that passed by when she snapped out of her daze. Jacob is a nice boy & makes a great friend always watching her back, but I prefer Edward. I hope things will stay strictly platonic between them, & maybe Edward will turn Bella one day. Although I must wonder what will become of Bella & Jacobs friendship if she does become a true member of the Cullen family.

  • At the risk of sounding as deranged as Edward finds Bella, I'd really love to jump into this book and have a go at being Bella. These stories definitely swallow you up like only a truly great book can. And while I have a lot of books I love and have read over and over, I can't really think of the la ... Continue

    At the risk of sounding as deranged as Edward finds Bella, I'd really love to jump into this book and have a go at being Bella. These stories definitely swallow you up like only a truly great book can. And while I have a lot of books I love and have read over and over, I can't really think of the last one that had this kind of effect on me. (Discounting Twilight, since it's still the same story.) Stephenie Meyer may be claiming her own Revered Author Shelf in my room!

  • The only reason why I gave it 4 stars instead of 3 was because I never have had just one book invoke every emotion out of my body. I have never cried that hard while reading a book. Extremely realistic writing style.

    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. The plot line including Jake drove me crazy, and I honestly feel it wasn't needed, but whoever said love was this easy?

    The plot was okay, and the treatment of vampires and werewolves in the series is somewhat unique, but the major problem I had with the book is Stephenie Meyer's remarkable ability to misuse the English language so thoroughly. There were grammatical errors all over the place in addition to spelling and usage errors as well. A good editor and more basic grammar lessons are needed for Ms. Meyer.
