Love stories. Horror fiction. Now in a Special Trade Demy Paperback Edition. The dramatic sequel to TWILIGHT, following the tale of Bella, a teenage girl whose love for a vampire gets her into trouble. I stuck my finger under the edge of the paper and jerked it under the tape. 'Shoot, ' I muttered when the paper sliced my finger. A single drop of blood oozed from the tiny cut. It all happened very quickly then. 'No!' Edward roared ... Dazed and disorientated, I looked up from the bright red blood pulsing out of my arm - and into the fevered eyes of the six suddenly ravenous vampires. For Bella Swan, there is one thing more important than life itself: Edward Cullen. But being in love with a vampire is more dangerous than Bella ever could have imagined. Edward has already rescued Bella from the clutches of an evil vampire but now, as their daring relationship threatens all that is near and dear to them, they realise their troubles may just be beginning.

For some reason I think that this is my favorite book in the Twilight series so far, I enjoyed the story progression, though there were several points in the book where I visibly cringed.
Just as ridiculous as the first. The introduction of Jacob brings new meaning to domestic violence city. And this one really drags. Maybe because there's hardly any vampire lust in it, I don't know. It took me a lot longer to read than it should have.
How did I fall into reading the second book of this series!? It's like a car crash. I'm not supposed to look and ... did I just see a disembodied arm? Whoa...that car flipped over!
Yea, it's like that. I think the way I've learned to approach this series is to read it like I'm Stephenie Meyer's editor. Nate actually forced this upon me since we decided to read this together at the same time. His request, ‘Can you just cut out all the making out and moping?' had a magical effect. New Moon seemed concise, engaging, and actually funny at times.
Loved the scene with Jacob hanging on the tree in Bella's yard and the vote scene at the Cullen's place.
Looking forward to dissecting Eclipse next week. :)
