Quarter 2- Blog Post #10- New Moon

New Moon
Stephanie Meyer

I finally finished New Moon, and I loved it! For some reason, I liked it better than Twilight, even though bad things happen, like Edward breaking up with Bella. The book ends with a cliffhanger, so I am very excited to start Eclipse. What happens in the end is that Jacob drops off both of the motorcycles, so that she will get grounded and will have to spend less time with Edward. He does this without knowing that Bella is already grounded. When Bella goes to see Jacob for the first time in a while, Edward comes also and Jacob reminds him of the treaty and that if he ever bites a human, the treaty is broken. Bella did not know this, so was very surprised. I wonder if Edward will turn Bella into a vampire still, and Bella will still want that, knowing that the treaty might be broken. Another dilemma is that Victoria is still on the loose, so I don’t quite know what will be happening with that in the next book. I also wonder what Bella’s punishment will be for the motorcycles, because she already knows that Charlie will be extremely angry. I hope that Jacob will remain friends with Bella even though all of this has happened, and Edward is here to stay. So much happened in this book and it was very interesting and intriguing to read about. New Moon was an amazing book and I really recommend, but read Twilight first!

Quarter 2- Blog Post #9- New Moon

New Moon
Stephanie Meyer

New Moon is so good and I am almost finished! I have about 40 pages left and I really want to finish but I just haven’t had a chance. Since Bella has arrived home, she has spent a lot of time sleeping and with Edward. As soon as she got home though, Charlie started yelling at her and Edward for just leaving like that and now Charlie claims that Edward isn’t allowed on their property. Bella hasn’t really talked to her dad since she has come home because she has slept, but she is preparing for the worst. Once Bella woke up, Edward was in her room and she thought she was dreaming. Things were too good for Bella that she didn’t think that they could possibly be happening to her. She also was afraid of waking up and the “hole in her heart” being torn farther open. Edward tries to convince her that she is not sleeping. They talk for a while and Edward promises never to leave Bella again and it was a big mistake on his part. He was doing it to protect her and he admitted that he lied to her when he said that he no longer loved her. Bella was so surprised when she heard this and relieved at the same time. It is sad to me that Edward had to lie about that on top of leaving her because it made the whole experience more difficult. Bella decides that she wants to get the Cullen’s opinions on her converting to a vampire. I am very excited to see what they think and if Edward will agree with them. Bella is very eager to become a vampire but I want to see how it works out.
