Amazing November 19, 2008 Stephanie Meyers is a grand author. Her books are absolutely absorbing and completely thrilling. A wonderful book to read. Alice Cullen is the best!
AMAZING!! November 19, 2008 I completly loved this book. Once you begin with the first book of the series (Twilight) you will be tangled with the Bella & Edward love story. I also love that the books are good for all ages so mothers & daughters can enjoy them together.
NEW MOON November 19, 2008 OOOOHHHHH MY GOSH !!! This is a GREAT READ!! The series is AWESOME!! I could hardly put any one of these books down. I recommend them HIGHLY!-I also would not say that this is a" teeny bopper" book, adults will enjoy all 4 books. Buy them, you' ll miss sleep but you'll love it!!
Fascinating Concepts Add Zest November 18, 2008 Due to circumstances involving my local library, I never read "Twilight" but only this second book in the series, "New Moon."
It's a Young Adult Fantasy novel, which is a genre that I love even though I don't belong to its target audience anymore. I'm not a teenager nor female, a combination which would be ideal for maximum enjoyment of "New Moon." So I probably did not get maximum enjoyment out of it, but I liked it well enough.
The book starts with Bella Swan, the protagonist, spending her eighteenth birthday with her vampire boyfriend Edward and his family, but because of an unhappy accident during the party, Edward decides that Bella is not safe in his family and they ought to move far away. Which they do.
Left without her boyfriend, Bella struggles with depression and meets someone else ...
The story goes on from there.
What I liked about the book was not the love story as such, but fascinating concepts such as Bella having hallucinations of Edward's voice when under an adrenaline rush and consequently seeking ever more dangerous situations in order to keep hearing Edward's voice - a quest that eventually puts both her and Edward into great peril.
That twist and the ending of the book added the necessary zest to what might have otherwise been a fairly bland and overly teenage-pleasing story.
I can't say that this has been my favorite Young Adult novel I've ever read, but it was worth the read. And who knows? Maybe, if the situation at my local library had been different and I'd read the first book in the saga first, I would have enjoyed the second book even more than I did. I certainly do not recommend starting with this book, as I did.
Given that it's my own fault to not have read "Twilight" first, I give "New Moon" 4.5 out of 5 stars.

Delaneys Review November 18, 2008 This is one of the best books inthe whole world. i am telling you though not to read this one if you did not read twilight or you will be very confused. i ccant wait to see the twilight movie. best series ever. ipersonally thought it was gonna be stupid with the whole vampire thing but i read it all in one day
