Well... This entire book was annoying and boring.
Fist of all, Jacob was pathetic, disrespectful and a piece of shit. I cannot stand him. I liked him in the previous book, but in this one he was SO ANNOYING AND EMBARRASING. I wish he died like he said he was going to.
Secondly, all Bella and Edward did was have multiple arguments. Where's the romance? How am I supposed to believe that she's deeply in love with him if all she does is start arguments with him over EVERYTHING. It's so annoying. Every page would go like this:
<b>Bella:</b> No, Edward, I don't want to do this.
<b>Edward:</b> Why?
<b>Bella:</b> Ugh, just forget it. I'm tired.
<b>Edward:</b> No, I want to know what's upsetting you.
<b>Bella:</b> <i>I looked into his eyes and I started feeling butterflies. He is so beautiful. I want him and only him. I cannot live without him</i>
<b>Bella:</b> UGH!!!!!!!!!!! I DON'T WANT TO MARRY YOU AND I DON'T WANT TO DO THIS AND THAT AND LEAVE ME ALONE. <i>He's so perfect...</i> UGH, YOU'RE SUCH A JERK.
Just because she's thinking that he's beautiful and her body reacts to him, doesn't mean that she's really in love. That's just lust.
And Bella was so horny the entire book and that was EXTREMELY annoying, too. Just calm down, fucking hell. No one is that desperate. You disgust me.
Also, the whole lore and backstory of Jack's pack was BORING. I don't give two flying fucks about it. I don't care, I don't care, I don't care. It's sooooooooooo boring.
Another boring aspect was Jasper's backstory. BEEEEEEEEGHHHHHHHHHH (that's the sound of me vomiting). I didn't care.
The whole fight between Victoria, the newborns, the Volturi, the Cullens and the werewolves? Don't ask me anything about it because I skimmed through it. IT WAS; YES, YOU GUESSES IT: BORING!!!!!!!!!!!!
The only redeeming qualities this book had were Edward and Alice. I do like them both and I am always on Edward's side. I'm probably in the wrong here, but Edward is way better than Bella and she doesn't deserve him and I will unapologetically defend my point of view until the end of time. Edward rocks, Bella sucks.
This book was also really easy to read, even though there were so many BORING parts, I finished quickly.
