Because the Twilight saga is at it's very best a love story, I found this book to be both heartbreaking and frustrating. With the leading man out of the picture I discovered just how weak the character of Bella truly is. Though understandable that a love triangle can make for interesting reading, the character of Jacob, no matter how pathetically he throws himself at Bella, could never contend with what had already been written as a one and only true love. I found his pushiness irritating at best and Bella's inability to draw clear lines for him even more so. The redeeming parts of this book for me were new insights into the vampirical governing society and the dynamics of Bella's relationship with her father. Overall, New Moon is a story about dwelling in heartbreak and depression and--I think the reason Jacob has become such a popular character-- the glimpses of light that can be found in very dark places.

Jacob is soooooooooooooooooooooooooo hot.

Well what can i say about this amzing heartbraking book! honestly, from my opinion i liked it very much beacuse not only beacuse of the moral but because of the way the story goes, such as, when jacob comes to rescue bella but yet he edward is still thinking about her and thats what makes there love so strong and powerful!. Lets just say this book got all my attention and grabed me the reader very strong. ( )

aardige opvolger, lekker tussendoor boek ( )

Slow until rescued by the appearance of werewolves but the contrast between the intensity of Bella's responses to her abusive vampire boyfriend and the flat prose in which this is described was too great a hurdle for me to cross. ( )
