Eclipse by Stephenie Meyer

Eclipse (Twilight Saga, #3)

by Stephenie Meyer

Bella?'
Edward's soft voice came from behind me. I turned to see him spring lightly up the porch steps, his hair windblown from running. He pulled me into his arms at once, and kissed me again. His kiss frightened me. There was too much tension, too strong an edge to the way his lips crushed mine - like he was afraid we had only so much time left to us.
As Seattle is ravaged by a string of mysterious killings and a malicious vampire continues her quest for revenge, Bella once again finds herself surrounded by danger. In the midst of it all, she is forced to choose between her love for Edward and her friendship with Jacob - knowing that her decision has the potential to ignite the ageless struggle between vampire and werewolf. With her graduation approaching, Bella has one more decision to make: life or death. But which is which?
Following the international bestsellers Twilight and New Moon, Eclipse is the much-anticipated third book in Stephenie Meyer's captivating saga of vampire romance.

Bella just gets more annoying every book. Not only does she think that Edward is the best and most innocent person in the world (he isn't even human), she seems to think that him leaving her is terribly romantic! What?! The story just loses al it's credibility at that point. She doesn't even get a little bit mad at him (I would give him hell). And she wants to throw her whole life away, but she doesn't want to marry him? Huh? Maybe it has to do something with her crazy aversion to anybody taking notice of her. Talk about insecurity.

It's supposed to be really romantic and stuff, but I don't really see true affection between Edward and Bella.

With Jacob, on the other side... Oh, that werewolf makes my day. Although I don't really get how someone could fall in love with that Bella-girl, but he makes it seem so believable. I would have stopped reading the book and put it away if it wasn't for him. I've gotten myself a little werewolf crush *blushes*. So Jacob, those three stars are for you, and not those dreadful bloodsuckers!
