Customer Reviews

fun read
Well written, easy read and really interesting plot line. If you can handle hours of immature adolescent obsession than this is an excellent book.

Good Read!
Suspenseful page-turner! Yeah, it’s kind of like a soap opera, maybe even a little Jerry Springer; the vampire-werewolf-human love triangle is pretty crazy! But the craziness is what makes this story so good, because you don’t know what to expect. It is truly an adventure! More importantly, what girl doesn’t want to read about being special and adored?!

Every Bit as Enjoyable as Twilight
Stephenie Meyer lit the publishing world on fire with her remarkable debut, Twilight, where we were introduced to Bella Swan and her vampire boyfriend Edward Cullen. After reading and loving every minute of Twilight I was anxious to dive into New Moon to see what awaited this unlikely couple.

New Moon shifts gears early on and it doesn’t take long to figure out that this story is all about Bella and Jacob Black. Edward is an integral part of this story, but his character is absent for most of the book. Instead, Meyer focuses the story on the friendship between Bella and Jacob that began in the first book. As Bella spends more time with Jacob she begins to notice that something isn’t quite right with him. When she finally figures out what is going on she is floored by the drastic change of events. Having a vampire for a boyfriend is strange enough, but it seems that Bella Swan’s best friend just happens to be a werewolf.

New Moon is a fun, mesmerizing tale that is every bit as enjoyable as Twilight. This time around we are treated with Meyer’s take on the werewolf genre and her werewolves are just as intriguing as the vamps. The tension slowly builds as we learn that werewolves and vampires are fierce enemies, which only makes Bella’s dilemma even more excruciating.

Stephenie Meyer continues to wow me with her addicting storytelling and her uncanny ability to make me care about these characters. There is something so authentic and engaging about these novels that makes them absolutely impossible to put down. I can see why young adults have devoured them, but I’m also finding out how enjoyable this series is for adults as well. You can label the Twilight series YA fiction, or teen paranormal romance, or even horror love story. I’ll call it what it really is: stellar storytelling on every level.

The stage is wonderfully set for Eclipse and once again I can’t wait to dive in.
