New Moon (Twilight #2) By: Stephenie Meyer

New Moon (Twilight, #2)New Moon by Stephenie Meyer
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Bella is turning 18 , Edward is giving her a party. During the party Bella cuts her self and Edward races to save her from being attacked by the still very young vampire Jasper. Bella wants Edward to change her into a vampire, she is now one year older than Edward was when Carlisle turned him. She wants to stay the same age as Edward, not go through her eternal life being a lot older than he is. But Edward and the Cullen family decide to leave Forks after the incident with Jasper at Bella’s Birthday party to keep her safe. Bella goes into deep depression without Edward being around and learns that when she is danger she can hear Edward in her head.

Her relationship with Jacob becomes stronger, she comes to think of him like a brother but Jacob falls in love with Bella. Jacob helps Bella restore a couple of motorcycles and teaches her to ride. Riding the bike recklessly is when she learns that being in danger is when Edward comes into her head. She has an accident while riding the bike and is injured.

Edward knows that something has happened to Bella. He calls her house and is told that Charlie has gone to a funeral. Believing that it is Bella’s funeral he decides to go to Italy to see the Volturi, vampires that can and will kill him if he provokes them. Alice sees in a vision what Edward is planning on doing. She tells Bella and they take off to Italy to stop him. The Volturi tell Edward that Bella must be changed into a vampire or die. No human can know that vampires exist. They return to Forks and the Cullen clan vote to change Bella into a vampire, Edward does not like this. Jacob reminds Edward about the treaty between the werewolves and vampires.

I love how Stephanie Meyer’s brings out the feeling of love that Edward and Bella share. Most people probably never find that kind of love in a lifetime much less have that person walk out on them. They never experience the pain of loosing the one that they are in love with. Edward and Bella don’t just love one another they are in love. Bella is one of those people that has a very good heart that feels things to the very depth of her soul. I would definitely recommend that you read New Moon and all of the Twilight novels. It is not only about vampires and werewolves but a love that hardly anyone ever experiences.
