Book Summary:
I knew we were in mortal danger. Still, in an instant, I felt well. Whole. I could feel my heart racing in my chest, the blood pulsing hot and fast through my veins. My lungs filled deep with the sweet scent that came off his skin. It was like there had never been any hole in my chest. I was perfect--not healed, but as if there had never been a wound in the first place.Review:
SPOILERS FOR THE PEOPLE WHO HAVEN'T READ THE BOOK
The next book in the TWILIGHT SAGA.
Bella looses Edward in this book and for months she is broken and she feels lifeless. Then Jacob shows up. Jacob, the sixteen year old who doesn't know when to give up...
I really don't like Jacob at all. To me he just keeps persisting when he KNOWS that Bella is in love with Edward and what comes out of that? That's right. Bella starts to have feelings for him. Hurray now we have the wonderful mixed feelings when Edward almost dies.
In this book I really thought Edward was a psycho. She could have been in a coma for all he knew and he would have gone all the way to the Volutri to kill himself. Seriously, why can't he just make it a little less dramatic and go to figure out exactly WHOSE funeral it was. Not just assume that the funeral was for Bella.
Wouldn't you go to the town to see what was going on before you make rash assumptions that can get you killed..for good?
Then, because of Edward's "I'm going to kill myself" phase, the Volturi have now figured out that Bella is immune to mind reading, Jane's power of hurting people mentally and finally Aro's "reading every thought you've ever had" bit. And they also want to either kill her or turn her into a vampire because of how much she knows...great...
Thank you Edward.
Then to top everything off Jacob tells Charlie about Bella's motorcycle and she gets grounded for a long time.
Thank you Jacob.
Jacob is gone because of Edward.
Thank you Edward.
But now because of what Jacob accused Edward of he's really pissed.
Thank you Jacob.

Hmm...not certain you really liked your read through on this one, late or not. My two cents....Edward reacted that way because of the old adage "love is blind"....he didn't think about it, he just felt. Grant it not the best option when dealing with life and death, but alas there it is. Jacob, yeah...seriously needed to get a clue, but it all played into the final outcome and why he couldn't just go away. ^_^
ReplyDeleteI read this entire book in a day. I actually rather enjoyed it even though I'm not a huge Jacob fan. I was really interested in learning about Jacob's tribe and traditions. Also, that part in the book when Edward leaves and those pages are blank besides the month had a huge impact on me. It was beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the review!
I did not enjoy this book either. Finally, someone who has the same feelings as me for twilight!!!
