4.5

This is my favorite of the Twilight saga books. It's the most plot-driven book in the entire series. Because of the events of the first book, Bella is in danger again from Victoria while a murderous rampage is happening just a few cities away in Seattle. The deaths of all these innocents has put the Cullens--and the pack--on edge.

Eventually, the werewolves and Cullen Coven are able to form a shaky alliance to bring down their common enemy. Vampires.

Of course, Victoria is playing with Edward and Alice's abilities and is able to remain undetected while she creates a newborn army to kill Bella. Edward eventually kills her in the end and Bella realizes she loves Jacob Black and Edward at the same time. Of course, she is never going to act on her desires for Jacob....except for this one time to save his life. It doesn't work out for the two of them.

I love this book. There's so much going on and so many connecting plot elements. This was originally meant to be the end of the saga, but Stephenie pushed for her original ending. Eclipse ties up all the loose ends, is plot heavy, and manages to get lots of romance in there.

3.0

This book was 200 pages too long. The middle was so boring. Nothing was happening and Jacob was getting ON MY LAST NERVE. As usual bella and Edward were so cute and I’m glad they ended up together. This book was unnecessary long and I could not even tell you what happened for a good 350 pages in the middle. I liked seeing Rosalie and Jaspers stories as I think they showed us a different side to them. Now, for Jacob. He infuriated me the whole time as he was being such a pick me boy, not needed. He literally manipulated bella into kissing him by saying he would kill himself if she didn’t! What a jerk. The ending was mid and I found it super confusing. I got into a reading slump reading this book too, and never felt any motivation to pick it up. The climax happened really quickly but I liked it.
