 What??? October 7, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I really loved the first book and had high hopes. But as other reviewers have mentioned, Bella's character just does not progress the way it seems she should. She is still a very immature, selfish, snotty little brat. It would make more sense if Edward didn't put up with it and told her to shape up or ship out. But he doesn't. And then there is the whole RIDICULOUS deal with Jacob. She is supposedly so in love with Edward that she would DIE if he were to leave her, but then she keeps going behind his back and hurting him to see stupid, arrogant Jacob. Edward needs to grow a pair and make Bella stop acting like a spoiled child. I will be reading the final book just to see how it ends, but I am doubtful. Oh and teens, this is NOT how love is in the real world.
 Couldn't put it down October 6, 2008
I think this is the best book in the Twilight Series. I literally could not put it down. I'm glad I bought the hard back copy because I will definiitely want to read it again and again.
Best Book in the 4 book series! October 6, 2008
Wow, what can I say. I really loved this book. I was surprised, I am 44 and started reading the twilight series by chance just for something to do while my husband watched football. I became so engrossed in the books that I read all 4 in just 6 days. The amazing thing is I am not a reader. These were the first books I have read in more than 5 years.
I cannot recommend these books by SM enough. They are so vividly discriptive and she teases you so well by writing almost what you want to happen and then pulling back at the right moment.
I am a Jacob Black fan. The way SM has written the series I am always pulling for him and I feel so much compassion for his character.
Fantastic!! October 5, 2008
The sequel of the Twilight Saga did not disappoint.
I first read Stephanie Meyer's "Host" and loved it so much I couldn't wait to read more from her. I purchased the "Twilight Saga and read all four books. They were all great.
She writes from a first person prespective and you come to love the characters, especially the innerworld of the heroine. She begins as a teenager with all the self-consciousness, weaknesses, and foibles of a teen. She is the definition of a clutz.
Through each successive book you watch her grow and mature into a really wonderful adult heroine.
These books are full of monsters, many of which I came to love.
I can't wait to see what Stephanie Meyer comes up with next.
Engrossing Series October 5, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I am not an adolescent girl, and usually get impatient with the endless tension (usually born of bad communication skills or stupidity, or both) that is Romance. Somehow these books transcend my usual reading preferences. Though, unlike many readers, I thought the last book in the series was the best of the bunch. My reward for three books of somehow, against-my-will, engrossing angst.
