Product Description
Legions of readers entranced by EMTwilight/EM are hungry for more and they won't be disappointed. In EMNew Moon/EM, 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.

 Co-dependent Bella: Act II January 9, 2009
Anyone who enjoyed the first book but found the phrasing repetitive and the character of Bella to be mildly annoying, be warned. br /br /Pgs 1-70 are actually interesting, aside from Bella being a brat about turning 18br /br /Pgs 70-400 are basically the plot of the first book, recycled, with Jacob as the new love interest. As with Edward, she shuns the other kids at school, wants to spend all her time with him, and, when she finds out what he really is, she embraces it, meets the family...etc etc.br /br /pgs 400-the end are essentially the only novelty to the book. Even so, it's ruined by the fact that Bella is so helpless and insecure. I don't understand why Edward loves you either, Bella, but he does. And I don't want to have to read 500 pages of him convincing you of that.br /br /This book is basically ACT II of the first book, but with a few less obnoxious descriptions of Edward's bronze hair/marble body/topaz eyes, and a few more obnoxious descriptions of the aching hole/depression in Bella's soul when Edward leaves her.br /br /Bella morphs from being slightly annoying and whiny, to being completely pathetic. Her world revolves around Edward, so when he leaves, she is left in a catatonic state...until eventually she decides to rebel and do crazy things, in the hopes that she might hear his voice (oh yes, that velvet voice of his is in this book too, and velvet must be on Meyer's 'favorite adjectives list"). br /br /But then Bella finds reason for living again, in the arms of another man, Jacob. Her basic attraction to him is based on...wait for it..."she's less miserable with him". Hmmm....the co-dependent latches on again. She completely leads him on, because the whole time she is with him, she is still thinking about Edward and how she can reunite her crazy messed up head with a precious delusion of him. br /br /In the end, Edward and Jacob are mortal enemies (oh no!) and Bella is left choosing between the man who is the world to her, and the man who is the world to her when the man who really is the world to her is unavailable. Gee, I wonder who she'll choose in the end. Apparently Meyer wants us to think it's a toss up and plans to make another book of it. Yeah right.br /br /I can only hope that the third book doesn't contain the following phrases and/or words, because I HATE THEM BY NOW:br /br /grimacedbr /smirkedbr /topazbr /velvet voicebr /touseled bronze hairbr /marble slabbr /perfect facebr /singing laughterbr /aching holebr /russett skinbr /angelic anythingbr /it felt like I was dreamingbr /I wasn't sure if it was a dreambr /it had to be a dreambr /br /
 Great Book January 9, 2009
The book was in excellent condition, however, it took a bit longer than what I had hoped for to get shipped. Understandable though because of the holiday season.
Moving tale of love lost and found again! January 9, 2009

 Not as good as the first January 9, 2009
This book was a little slow compared to the first. I'm not putting in any spoilers so I'll just end it at that.
