3.5 stars! Lots of teenage angst, slightly unhinged, slightly chaotic, but very, very entertaining haha
I like that we got a bit more of the politics of the vampire world!

This book, though, did push me to team Jacob 🫣. Felt very meh on Edward in this book, but I'm curious how my opinion of the main characters will change throughout the rest of the series!

Reread (2024) ~•~•~ "Time passes. Even when it seems impossible. Even when each tick of the second hand aches like the pulse of blood behind a bruise. It passes unevenly, in strange lurches and dragging lulls, but pass it does. Even for me." ~•~•~ "These violent delights have violent endsAnd in their triumph die, like fire and powderWhich, as they kiss, consume." For a book about heartbreak.. it oddly makes you feel warm and fuzzy. This is hands down the best book in the series, despite the lac...

please, this book would have been 20 pages long at best if this girl went to therapy

You know its true love when its between a 100+ year old virgin pedophile and a 18yr old child with one brain cell😌

She is so bad at everything, like she cant even put herself in danger properly

Have you ever been reading Twilight and been like, wow, I wish I could read this book except with no romance, a ton of suffering, a protagonist who’s heartbroken to the point of nonfunction for most of the book, way more of the characters you don’t care about, and also a lot of extraneous Native American stereotyping?Because if so, Stephenie Meyer wrote this book for you.You have to hand it to Steph for a writing a smash hit book and then being like I wonder what would happen if I took all the g...

"Forbidden to remember, terrified to forget; it was a hard line to walk." Really cringing at my younger self..And yet....I still loved itSo, I guess I'm cringing at my older self too. "Before you, Bella, my life was like a moonless night. Very dark, but there were stars, points of light and reason. ...And then you shot across my sky like a meteor. Suddenly everything was on fire." When Bella gets a paper cut during her birthday, she (in typical ridiculously unstable fashion) slices her arm ope...

Stephen King once said, "Stephenie Meyer can't write worth a darn. She's not very good." I couldn't agree more, Stephen. With that, we shall kick this off with a joke: Heh. This re-reading is brought to you courtesy of Project: Hindsight. I'm sorry folks. I just could not get through this shit book another time. However, since I've already read it a few times, I feel extremely confident in skipping to the review. But first, can someone please explain to me why this book is 563 pages?! Ser...

This should suffice.

Keep in mind that though this review is about to wheel off into an angry rant, this book is good. The series is addictive. And as I said previously about Stephanie Meyer, if you want to cease brain function for a few hours, she's your girl.The beginning is slow, the middle is gold, the end is lacking. The blank pages to represent months passed in zombie-depression, great idea.Now, my problem. My problem is not so much with the story as it is perhaps with the idea behind the story and thus, the a...
