 A fairly good read. August 11, 2008

An enjoyable read but follows a very similar pattern to the first book which makes it far too predictable and slightly repetitive. Having said that, I think the relationship between Bella and Jacob was far superior than Edward and Bella - how many people will shoot me down for that? :). I think this is because it's much more natural, the latter's relationship always seemed a bit superficial, what with Bella always being dazed by Edward's beauty. Then again, perhaps Jacob is too good for the likes of Bella. Her constant references to her metaphorical holes did irk me quite a bit. Also, the comparisons to Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet were just a tad too corny.
 WARNING: This series is highly addictive!!!! July 30, 2008

I got 'NEW MOON' as a mother's day present because, after a few inquaries from my husband, all I could think of that I really wanted after reading 'TWILIGHT' was to get my hands on the rest of the books in this series! So my husband although a bit confused dutifully went to the teen section of the local bookstore and purchased my copy of 'NEW MOON' and from the time he brought it in the house until I finished it I was barely able to put it down.
Although it is hard to say I think that I may have liked 'NEW MOON' even better than 'TWILIGHT'. One reason for this is that the action started much earlier in the book. From Bella's discoveries about the LaPush Gang, to the return of her nemesis, all the way to the mysterious and ancient vampire sect, the action in 'NEW MOON' rarely slows.
The second reason I liked 'NEW MOON' so much is Jacob Black. It was a joy getting to know his character and to see Bella blossom when interacting with someone outside of the Cullen Family. Don't get me wrong I love Edward and the entire gang but in my opinion, Jacob Black brought out all of the best qualities in Bella whereas Edward seems to reduce her to a love sick, disagreeable...well...brat. Not to mention Jake is just an all around sweetie!! For these reasons, I am reluctant to say that no matter how much I love Edward (and I do) I am officially on Team Jacob!
On one last note, I cannot recommend this series enough. If you have not read it hurry and get on this ban wagon now! It doesn't seem to matter how old you are or what sex you are for that matter, I have not met one person who has read this series that has not become completely addicted to it (What DO you put in these books Stephenie Meyer??). Do believe the hype it seems to just get better with time.
thank goodness for that July 13, 2008

I was very weary when I started reading this book. I'm not a Jacob Black fan and it irritated me to the very core that his presence took over almost the whole book. The only thing that kept me going was the fact that Edward was always on Bella's thoughts and that she could hear him talking to her. I felt at least that he was still around. I kept flicking to the end to see if he would turn up (I know, I'm terrible but I'm sure i'm not the only one!)...and then the last couple of chapters sent me into a frenzy! I have never been so tense and excited about an ending in my life. It was such a relief to get rid of Jacob, for a while at least.
I'm just about to start the third one tonight and again I'm weary about it. I'm not sure I'll enjoy the love triangle thing but hopefully Bella will be sensible and pick her TRUE love - who we all know is Edward :)
'Riveting' and 'deeply moving'... June 24, 2008

'New Moon' (NM) is the second book in The Twilight Saga, written by the amazingly talented Stephenie Meyer.
'New Moon' starts roughly four months after the end of 'Twilight', with Bella's eighteenth birthday. What should be a trouble free birthday party turns into a disaster, after Bella gives herself a paper cut. This event, in a way, shapes the whole book, as it's the reason why Edward does what he does (no spoilers here), and the reason why he starts to re-think his relationship with Bella.
'New Moon' focuses more on the character of Jacob, who we were previously introduced to in 'Twilight'. He becomes very important to Bella, and plays a pivotal role in The Twilight Saga.
'New Moon' is just as compelling as 'Twilight', and raises many new questions, which will both shock and surprise you. The back of the book describes it as 'riveting' and 'deeply moving', which I 100% agree with. Just a word of advice: try not to skip forward. I know it's hard, but do your best. You'll know what I mean when you read it...
Still got it June 16, 2008

S.M still had my undivided attention with this one, although I found the first book to be a bit more exciting than the second. This is often the case with a new series as it's all so new and exciting. While I liked the development of Jacob and Bella's friendship, I kept wishing for Edward to sweep in and stop it all from going too far. I still prefer Edward to Jacob, although it sounds like things are heating up in the 3rd book!
