Product Description
Legions of readers entranced by Twilight are hungry for more and they won't be disappointed. In New Moon, Stephenie Meyer delivers another irresistible combination of romance and suspense with a supernatural twist. The "star-crossed" lovers theme continues as Bella and Edward find themselves facing new obstacles, including a devastating separation, the mysterious appearance of dangerous wolves roaming the forest in Forks, a terrifying threat of revenge from a female vampire and a deliciously sinister encounter with Italy's reigning royal family of vampires, the Volturi. Passionate, riveting, and full of surprising twists and turns, this vampire love saga is well on its way to literary immortality.

 A good addition to the series however............. December 2, 2008
Edward fans may be a little disappointed with his absence for a good portion of the book. Still it establishes the bond between Bella and Jacob so it is a good addition to the series and worth reading.
 Hope Eclipse is better... December 2, 2008
I'm a sucker for the first book. I read it in a day. The love story is so deliciously impossible. I'm starting to think I was reading the book for Edward, because when I got into New Moon, I got bored.
Edward disappeared. Until the very end. I got through the novel so fast because I skipped ahead, hoping he would come back. He graced the pages again and the book ended.
I hope he stays put in Eclipse. And Bella puts a sock in that hole in her chest.
Anne Rice made better vampires. I wish she would still write about them.
 Read the complete saga (4books) within a week!! December 2, 2008
Moonlight was a great book, again, I couldn't put the book down. I've seen the other reviews and they only talk about what happened in the book, I don't want to kill other peoples' excitement about reading it. As the title says, read the 4 books in a week...worthwhile...LOVE IT!!
I'm not a teenager, I'm a mom of two and in my mid 30s, very easy reading, I got hooked on the story and the characters...
Vampire fans, you'll like these books if you enjoy seeing a new age vampire...:)
 Great but it lagged for me in the middle December 1, 2008
Events occur that bring Bella closer to her friend Jacob (the indian kid in the first book who first gave Bella the idea that Edward was a vampire). And they become best friends.
Jacob carries Bella through many dark hours. The only ray of sunshine in her otherwise bleak life.
This book MOSTLY develops the relationship of Bella and Jacob, and to absolutely no surprise IMO reveals that the myths about 'the cold ones' that Jacob told before weren't the ONLY myths that were true.
This book could still be quantified as a love story, but doesn't carry the same fresh upbeat feeling of the first novel. I was a bit impatient waiting to get to the part I knew would be coming (I knew it had to), so i read this book rather quickly, and was only satisfied again near the very end.
Here's a teaser
"Yes, fear would have made more sense, but all I felt was an overwhelming satisfaction. THe meadow was a magic place again. A darker magic than I'd expected, to be sure, but magic all the same. Here was the connection I'd sought. THe proof, however remote, that somewhere in the same world where I lived - HE did exist"
Annoying teen angst December 1, 2008
Twilight, the first in the series, was well worth my time. The second installment, New Moon, gets grating and annoying. Bella's ineptness wears thin, and I begin to wonder what, exactly, is it in Edward that makes all the grieving worth it especially when there is a real character in Jacob in her life. But then again, I've not been a teenager in a while.
