Publisher Comments:

For Bella Swan, there is one thing more important than life itself: Edward Cullen. But being in love with a vampire is more dangerous than Bella ever could have imagined. Edward has already rescued Bella from the clutches of an evil vampire, but now, as their daring relationship threatens all that is near and dear to them, they realize their troubles may just be beginning.

Legions of readers entranced by the New York Times bestseller Twilight are hungry for more, and they won't be disappointed by this gripping sequel. In New Moon, Stephenie Meyer delivers another irresistible combination of romance and suspense with a supernatural twist. Passionate, riveting, and deeply moving, this vampire love saga is well on its way to literary immortality.

Review:

"Fans of Meyer's debut novel, Twilight, may be disappointed in this second book in a planned trilogy. It begins with a bang, on Bella's 18th birthday, when Edward Cullen sweeps her off to his unorthodox family home (in the first book readers learn that the Cullens are vampires who hunt animals rather than humans) for a birthday celebration. But when Bella unwraps a gift and gets a paper cut, her drops of blood set off a chaos that culminates in the Cullens leaving town. Edward exits on page 73, and does not reappear for nearly 400 pages, except for his voice in Bella's head when she embarks on dangerous adventures, such as motorcycle riding and cliff diving. Instead, this book focuses on Jake, her friend from La Push, who has some unusual traits of his own. A Quileute legend that he confides in Bella in the first book comes to the fore here (and ties in with the title), and Bella is tracked down by the 'bad' vampires from the first book, who seek revenge for Edward's murder of their friend James. Long stretches in the book may make readers feel as if they're treading water, but the pace quickens when Alice Cullen sees a vision of Bella cliff diving and mistakes it for suicide. Edward then heads to the all-powerful Volturi vampires in Italy, seeking his own death. Will Bella get to Italy in time to save Edward? Will she remain human? Meyer answers the first question but leaves the second for the third novel. Ages 12-up. (Sept.)" Publishers Weekly (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)

Review:

"[T]eens will relish this new adventure and hunger for more." Booklist

Review:

"New Moon will more than feed the bloodthirsty hankerings of fans of the first volume and leave them breathless for the third." School Library Journal

The author overuses certain words. Over and over and over- SO play the twilight drinking game!!! Get four people and have each person read two pages. Every time they read green, muscular, velvet, smug... (make up your own, you will see a trend) the reader tales one drink. make another list of lesser used words (maybe teeth, smoldering or dazzled) and take two drinks for those. make an ultimate word that you have to take a few drinks for. It's fun!!!

Neither the plot nor the writing are worth much analysis; this is the second in the series of soft core porn without sex for teenage girls who have not yet learned that the reason Romeo and Heathcliff are bad news is not because you are star-crossed lovers, but because you are a whiny self-centered shrew and he is a depressive abuser.

I do wonder whether Bella and Edward will continue to smell indescribably delicious to each other once she's made a vampire. No one else finds Edward as compelling as Bella; on the other hand, all the undead find her scent irresistible, so we must hope for her sake that if she remains smellicious, she is not gnawed on too frequently by salivating ghouls, lest her truculent and possessive manpire be forced to kill again.
