Most codependent relationship I’ve ever read. Bella is just dead inside without her Edward. Edward is the same without Bella. Bella has to have a boy around to feel okay, whether it’s Edward or Jacob. I wanted to strangle her. Edward too. Also Jacob for good measure.

Hated all the navel gazing. A fair amount of action happens. But each time it’s followed by pages of badly written thoughts from Bella about what it all means for her and Edward. 300 levels of parsing.

Truly awful tripe.

I've been bitten by the Twilight Saga! But it's not until I reached "New Moon" that I was hooked. ( )

Excelente, debo admitir que las alucinaciones de Bella me aturdian por ratos pero luego comprendi lo que puede hacer una mujer enamorada "arriesgar su propia vida solo por escuchar por momentos su suave y aterciopelada voz"... creo que este libro me ha dejado un tanto suceptible pues tuve muchas lagrimas a flor de piel :'(... espero pronto poder comenzar a leer eclipse.

Not a great book, but not a bad book either. I am a much bigger fan of Jacob then Edward. Jacob is a much more fleshed out character in my opinion. Bella on other hand, I am not so sure about her. To weepy for my tastes, at least in this book. ( )

The writing isn't atrocious, but it isn't great either. Luckily, the story is damn fun. ( )

Despite Bella's flat and obsessive personality, this tale of tortured demon lovers entices.

Less streamlined than Twilight yet just as exciting, New Moon will more than feed the bloodthirsty hankerings of fans of the first volume and leave them breathless for the third.

This best-selling sequel to “Twilight” — which introduced Edward, the world’s most gentlemanly 17-year-old vampire, and Bella, an ordinary teenager in Forks, Wash. — appropriately begins with an epigraph from “Romeo and Juliet”; love and death are once again entwined in their curiously absorbing romance.

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0316160199, Hardcover)

Legions of readers entranced by Twilight are hungry for more and they won't be disappointed. In New Moon, Stephenie Meyer delivers another irresistible combination of romance and suspense with a supernatural twist. The "star-crossed" lovers theme continues as Bella and Edward find themselves facing new obstacles, including a devastating separation, the mysterious appearance of dangerous wolves roaming the forest in Forks, a terrifying threat of revenge from a female vampire and a deliciously sinister encounter with Italy's reigning royal family of vampires, the Volturi. Passionate, riveting, and full of surprising twists and turns, this vampire love saga is well on its way to literary immortality.
