Review

The third book in the Twilight Saga, I have to say is the worst. Throught out the whole book Bella is faced with the complicated descicion on whether or not to stay with her love Edward or Jacob the young werewolf, all the while vengeful Victoria is building an army of new born vampires (crazy, wild and blood thirsty) to seek Bella out and redeem the death of her mate James. The only reason I gave this book the rating that i did is because this is the book where Edward and Bella finally decide on a compromise- Bella will marry Edward before he changes her. This is one of the best parts of the book, that and the witty and sarcastic personality of Jacob. In New Moon I didn't find Jacob half as attractive or interesting as Edward but by Eclipse i was completely in love! Jacob really catches your sympathy in Eclipse and you can't help but want Bella to choose him over Edward. Another thing that is really great in the book is the fact that it goes more into detail about the former lives of the Cullen family members and also the history of the Quiluetes. Rosalie, Jasper and Esme all share a little piece of thmselves with Bella which is quite interesting to read! The Quiluetes on the other hand are filled with pack drama and old legends of how they became. Though this book is not the best in the saga it is certaintly important to the collection. YOU NEED TO THIS READ THIS!
