Eclipse by: Stephenie Meyer

Eclipse, written by Stephenie Meyer, is narrated by the main character Bella Swan. The main characters in this book are Edward Cullen, Bella's vampire fiance, Alice Cullen, Edward's vampire sister and vampire that can tell the future, Emmet Cullen, Edwards vampire brother, Rosely Cullen, Edward's sister that envy's Bella for being human while she stays a "monster", Jasper Cullen, Edward's brother, vampire that can control emotions, and leader of the vampire and werewolf army, Carlise and Eseme Cullen, Edward's parents, and Jacob Black, the werewolf Bella both kisses, and admits to Edward she.. sort of loves him.






It's just a few weeks before high school graduation, and although most girls Bella Swan's age would be focused on what to wear to the big dance or how to pass Calculus, Bella has a few more important things on her mind. Now that she's been reunited with her vampire boyfriend Edward, Bella must decide whether, and when, to join him and his coven, to give up her mortality, friends, and family, to live, like Edward, forever. Bella has grown up a lot since she fell in love with Edward. Back then she was naive, weak, and easily swayed by Edward's insanely good looks and effortlessly romantic charms. Now, though, in Eclipse, Bella is finally thinking a little about the implications of her decision to become a vampire and even standing up to Edward's dominating, overprotective tendencies. Edward is an old-fashioned guy. He won't turn Bella into a vampire unless she marries him first, and the idea of telling him she's getting married at 18 is more terrifying than admitting to her future transformation. Bella would also have to move far away from her beloved dad, Charlie, during their dangerous "newborn" vampire period, when she would be unable to control her bloodthirsty urges. And then there's Jake, the werewolf who finally pledges his love to Bella. Is she really ready to leave him behind? Bella does feel some urgency for this decision, though. She has made some enemies who would be more than happy to harm her while they still can. What's more, there's a newborn vampire on the loose in Seattle, terrorizing humans and threatening either the Cullen family or Bella herself. Clearly, time is running out while Bella hesitates. How much time does she have left to make these hard decisions?






I chose to read the Twilight Sega: Eclipse because both, Twilight and New Moon caught my eye. I love the well Bella thinks in this book, it's confusing at first but then you realize it's only confusing because you feel the same way as her, confused. What i didn't like about this book was the fast it was so long. They put way to much detail into it and it at some parts it went on and on. I still loved it! I'd recommend this to anyone who loves love stories or are a fan of the Twilight series books or movies.
