Nrw Moon The Twilight Saga Book 2 January 6, 2009 I purchased the 4 book series for my teenage daughter who is really into Twilight. She read all 4 books in 2 days. She was thrilled with the books, it was the best present this year.
New Moon January 6, 2009 My daughter is completely captivated by the Twilight series. She had New Moon in paperback, but she really wanted it in hardcover. She has already read the series twice, and she has loaned her book to other members of the family to read.
Nice Book January 6, 2009 This was purchased as a gift for my daughter she said was an excellent read
Love this book! January 6, 2009 Stephanie Meyer never dissapoints, I could hardly put this book down. I am 40 yrs old and I can truly say I loved this series as much as any teenager!
A little distressing January 6, 2009 I was given Twilight by my 15 year old niece. She loves the books and was thrilled when the movie came out. After reading the first book I could concede that they are entertaining and a good way to escape reality, even if they are poorly written. However I was concerned about the disfunctional relationship between Bella and Edward. Is the author praising this kind of behavior in young girls? She is obedient, mindless, and moody. Edward has complete control over her actions, thoughts, and moods. It's sick and Bella shouldn't be anyone's role model. I hope young girls can see how wrong and sad it is.
New Moon was worse. Bella is a mess. She even gives up on her education. College is PLAN B?! What is that saying to teenage girls? A man is the most important thing, so if you are dumped you should give up on life and your future. It's distressing to think of bright young women taking this attitude to heart. Books and movies leave an impression. Bella is weak, pathetic, and dependent on men. She sets women back decades and I'm not sure what Ms. Meyers is trying to say about how we should behave. It's really sad.
Besides the message of the books, the writing is pretty poor. Bella is unlikable and stupid. All she does is cry about how she wants to spend the rest of her life with Edward. When he proposes to her she then says no!?! She says no because her absentee mother won't like it? That is infuriating.
