Awful! I couldn't stand the main character's whinginess after getting dumped by her vampire boyfriend. Throughout the book, I kept thinking she needed to realize that there's much more to life than her boyfriend. ( )

Snippet:

I started reading the next installment of this series while at my parents’ place Christmas Eve. When I had gotten through the first few chapters, I had to go sound off at my younger sisters for not warning me … that the entire focus of the story changes!

Now, don’t get me wrong. I like other kinds of supernatural things, not just vampires. But, when I’m expecting a vampire story, why do I then have to read through almost 400 pages with very few mentions of vampires, not to mention having to learn a whole new set of supporting characters?

Definitely my least favourite book of the series. It could have been much better, had someone with better writing skill tackled it, even with the same basic narrative arc.

Great book into a good movie! New Moon is the 2nd book in the Twilight Saga. It is about Bella and her life after Edward leaves her. Then, he asks the Volterra if he can die, because he thinks that Bella is dead. Then she spends time without the vampires and spends time with Jacob Black, a werewolf. Then, she goes on a quest to find Edward, and then they kiss and everything is okay. One other thing... IT IS THE BEST BOOK EVER!!! ( )

i just finished reading the twilight saga for the second time and i think new moon has got to be the best! the movie could have been better because i had big expectations! i still love it though! ( )

I could do without so much of the Jacob stuff...it gets to be enough information after a while, but still, leads into the story further and draws you in. It is why so many are so emotionally invested in this series. ( )
