I've been reading Eclipse for two days now. I couldn't help myself and had to spoil it.
That was such a great review, and I'm impressed you could keep it spoiler free. You can see what Stephenie thinks about the debate between Edward the vampire or Jacob the werewolf or find out Stephenie's favorite music. We are noticing a huge uptake in Stephenie Meyer books! Due to the interest in Stephenie, we arranged for an exclusive interview with her and have posted the transcript on our web-site. Hi - Great review of the book! I work at chapters.indigo - a Canadian bookstore. Their love is their only redeeming quality.įor a less enthusiastic review which contains a few spoilersīookBinge's review of Eclipse again not so enthusiastic again has spoilers I think that may be the point, I disagreed. After a moment he smiled a teasing smile I still think it would be a better story if either of them had one redeeming quality. His face was thoughtful as he considered my words. How nothing can keep them apart - not her selfishness, or his evil, or even death, in the end. I'm not sure, I said, scrambling for coherency while his gaze unintentionally scattered my thoughts I think it's something about the inevitability. He reached across the table to cradle my face in his hand. Honestly though why do you read it over and over? His eyes were vivid with real interest now, trying -again- to unravel the convoluted workings of my mind. He smiled, evidently satisfied that he'd distracted me. Perhaps it's because I'm not impressed by antiquity. You have some serious issues with the classics, I snapped. it isn't a love story, it's a hate story. I don't know how Heathcliff and Cathy ended up being ranked with couples like Romeo and Juliet or Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. The characters are ghastly people who ruin each others' lives.
Photographic memory or not, I don't understand why you like it. Not all of us have photographic memories, I said curtly. I can't believe you're reading Wuthering Heights again. There were slight things-things that could add up to a good bit of frustration if you kept count and read with initial mindset that the novel was going to be a bitter disappointment-that annoyed me in the book. If I were in charge would I have done things differently.yes. Some are completely disenchanted with the series. That appears to be happening with Eclipse as well. The release of New Moon saw some skeptics who were thoroughly disappointed and hated the way the direction was going. Twilight will always be my favorite and my best. I wouldn't expect to be as head over heels in love with any sequel.

(239-260)Įclipse is exciting, fast-paced, full of action and romance. Bella attends a bonfire with Jacob-as a friend not a date. And Alice, well, she's been fleshed out in the other books-both Twilight and New Moon-but for me this is the first time I really appreciated the ensemble cast of Cullens.Īnother highlight, for me, was the presentation of werewolf folklore. And we also hear Jasper's story for the first time (287-309). For example, we see how Rosalie came to be a vampire (152-168) and they have their first and only heart-to-heart talk. We get more back stories on how this vampire family came to be. But mainly Edward's.after all if she accepts his arrangement she'll be part of his family for life. Whose family? Well, Bella's to a certain extent. So my telling you this is not a spoiler!) After all, if it's talked about in the prologue on the first 's not really a shocker. (But if you're a fan you've come to expect this. Which as you know always leads to an exciting climax complete with chase scenes and close calls. As with Twilight and New Moon there are bad guys-vampires actually-who are out to get Bella and friends. Not on most days.) It has plenty of action as well. (But don't count out or young werewolf, Jacob. What does Eclipse offer readers? It has more Edward and Bella than New Moon. Eleven months of wondering if this next book would be the one.the one where Bella's biggest dreams come true. Eleven whole months of wondering just what would happen next between Bella Swan, Edward Cullen, and Jacob Black. If you're like me, you've been waiting for the release of Eclipse since five seconds after you read the last page of New Moon. Spoiler free review of Eclipse by Stephenie Meyer
