Its good but it's very slow and only got my heart racing when I was nearly finished. Its no where near as good as the first book Twilight.

Midnight Sun made me want to reread this. This book is a melodramatic mess. I remember this book being the one I liked least when I read the series originally. I did like the scenes with Jacob much more this time around - Edward definitely loses his appeal as you realise how creepy and manipulative he is.
I will always find the empty pages with the months written on them absolutely hilarious. I aspire to be that dramatic after a break up. If anything this book could be a self help guide on how not to deal with heartbreak.
One star for pure nostalgia - these books will always give me the ability to time travel right back to being 12/13 again.

I hated this book so much and it got me in a slump. The writing style was so akward and i cant relate to bella at all. This just didnt made any sense, the only thing that got me trough this book was the promise that i would read ruin and rising next. I feel like r&r is gonna break my hart

honestly i enjoyed it. the only reason i’m ranking it 3 and not 3.5 or 4 is that when edward came back i was reminded by how ANNOYING bella and his relationship is. i actually like edward as a character but then together (and bella in general)? just no. bella is fine i guess a little annoying but bearable. but when it comes to edward? girl get a grip. i hate how much i love this series

Parts of this book were better than the first one don’t get me wrong. Unfortunately the lows were WAYY lower as well. I loved the whole middle section with Jacob and learning about the werewolves. It was great and sweet and cute and pretty much exactly what I would want from a simple YA paranormal romance. Was the explanation and exploration of depression and suicidal thoughts surface level and boring? Yes but it was fine. I have my expectations set low in these books
The last fourth of this book takes such a wild and incomprehensible u turn that I cannot justify giving this book a higher rating. If the book had decided to do anything else for the ending it could have been better than the first book. Flying off to Arizona randomly for two chapters just for Bella to have a near death experience in the last book was already over the line but now (view spoiler)
Bella is also so annoying with Edward. Edward do you really love me? How could Edward love me? Edward must not really love me. Do you think Edward really loves me? SHUT UP! (view spoiler) She is really an anxious attachment, codependency queen.
Note to anyone reading this that isn’t already an adult, if your entire happiness is attached to the men in your life, go to therapy. She dated Edward for 6 months, he is gone for like 4.5 months by the time she is hanging out with Jacob. Then that whole fiasco is at least a month if not more. If the depression is lasting longer than the length of the relationship itself, then you have some serious attachment issues.
The middle was fun, the rest was annoying. Bella is really starting to annoy me as a protagonist.
P.S. Team Jacob
