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

2.5

Even when I was reading these books obsessively when I was younger, I disliked Edward’s controlling nature. Now that I’m older, I’m very concerned that this book in particular helped reinforce the normalcy of that manipulative and borderline abusive behavior. Although Jacob isn’t let off the hook either. The treatment of his assault of Bella (and the implication that she secretly wanted it) was handled incredibly poorly.

-I did like this book i really did it was a five stars for me up until Bella admitted she loved Jacob and Edward thats sort of where my 5 stars went to a 4 stars i have a strong dislike to multiple love interests/love triangle whatever you want to call it as soon as that happened i immediately stopped enjoying the book and my anxiety went nuts i wished it was only Edward and Bella I'm so relieved i finished the book but now I'm nervous to read the next one long story short this book is gonna be a four stars from me ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️-
