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.

Okay, so far Im gonna have to say this is my favorite of the book series so far. But oh my god, it made me hate Jacob so much. So I'm going to rant about it.

The fact that Jacob kissed Bella even though she was in a relationship and continued to kiss her even though she was activly trying to get him to stop disgusts me. And the fact he blamed her for her breaking her hand when she hit him. I get she should of known not to hit him but it was obvious she didn't like the kiss and I would of hit him too. Then to the fact he threatened to kill himself if she didn't kiss him made me so mad that I had to sleep on it. I never knew a fictional character could make me so mad. I get there are likely worse characters than Jacob that I've read about and they haven't pissed me off as much, but maybe it's because I have been threatened like that before so it hits a nerve for me even more than a character murdering someone or something like that. It just made me so mad, I ended up ranting to my friend and I still feel very angry even now. I'll likely be thinking about it for days. And don't get me wrong, Edward has is bad moments but I don't think he could top this for me. But I can't wait to see how much more Jacob can piss me off in this next book. I do still enjoy this book though, the emotions it gave me was nice even though it was quite a bit of anger and not as much of anything else. It just made me surprised that I could feel so angry towards a character but it was a overall enjoyable book. Definitely my favorite book in the series so far but I'll have to see where the last one goes.

-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 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️-

Book 2 was so strong, so I was majorly confused as to why this one left me just bored out of my mind. Towards the end, I just get so frustrated with the characters for beings so insincere, repetitve, creepy, and possessive. Yes, that even counts Bella, who is back to having no personality. 

It was a drag and I hate Jacob, that is all. 

3 / 5 D-
