erm. this book was um. probably my least favourite in the series bye
 can i also talk my shit and say FUCK JACOB BLACK!!!!!!!!
im so sorry i cannot understand team jacob fans. bro

assaults bella once & guilt trips her into kissing him

. he can kiss my ass. fuck jacob black. he was so incredibly insufferable for 99% of this book that i groaned every time he appeared. and DONT GET ME STARTED ON BELLA AND JACOB!!!!
bella u need to get ur shit together.

stop thinking u love jacob because to me its so fucking clear she doesn't love him shes just incessantly needy.

anyways um that's honestly my biggest gripe with this book.
that and you can smell the mormonism in this book unlike any other. like seriously the

no sex before marriage cockblock

occurring TWICE is so fucking funny it has me rolling.
anyways im also lowkey getting sick of how fucking needy bella is. GIRL GET SOME SELF CONFIDENCE JESUS CHRIST YOU CAN EXIST AWAY FROM YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH MEN!!!
ummm now what did i like? its a twilight book duh. automatic win. also i enjoyed the edward x jacob solidarity. i also LOVED the backstory dumps from rosalie and jasper <3 my loves they both deserved better when they were humans.
anyways im looking forward to the cgi baby nessie.

edit 5/2/2024: don't get me fucking started on imprinting. i forgot to add this but on god

one of the wolfies imprinting on a fucking child

was my last straw

I loved Eclipse, it’s honestly such a good book and no one can change my mind. I do think it’s well-written, I love the characters (apart from Jacob in this book, he made me go nuts haha) and it had a lot of plot twists. Watching the movie right after finishing the book, is honestly the best thing in the world and the casting is sooo good please. Also, still don’t understand this whole hate thing from the past against Kristen Stewart. Obviously this isn’t regular acting but she represents Bella perfectly in the way she choose to act.

Nonostante sia un finale decisamente particolare, mi è piaciuta l'idea finale di mostrare che Bella sia in realtà innamorata di entrambi perché penso che molto spesso nei libri sia presente l'idea di un singolo unico amore, quando in realtà posso esistere diversi tipi di amore che convivono tra loro.

Ho trovato alcune parti del libro un po' ripetitive, sia nella trama sia nel modo stesso in cui erano scritte. Nel complesso però il libro mi è piaciuto e l'ho trovato piuttosto scorrevole. In generale mi è piaciuto il modo dell'autrice di descrivere i sentimenti e i dubbi di Bella, anche se alcune volte erano probabilmente troppo drammaticità (anche se la drammaticità di bella è sempre stata presente anche nei libri precedenti quindi non è esattamente una sorpresa). Continuerò sicuramente la serie leggendo anche il prossimo libro.
