Eclipse is a great book. out of all of twilight saga books to me this is the best one yet.I think that stephenie used such details and such imagary that you could picture the book in your head. I don't wanna give away to much but the way she describes the fight scene is so vivid and so real. This book also is so funny. jacob adds such flavor,humor and sense of aventure to the story. Like in the other book Edward is as charming as always and so sweet and old. I mean come on 110 years old come on, people are saying team edward or jacob, team jacob all the way. I can tell you i recommed this book because its like a movie that you read.

More Eclipse (book) reviews
this book is the most action and suspense filled yet in the saga. Edward and Bella's' peace and quiet after their near death experience with the volturi in Italy dosen't last long. Bella's arrangement with carlisile to change her into a vampire after her graduation is wearing on Edward, since its not what he wants, but he knows it must happen because of the volturi. also his girlfriends obsession with her best friend is getting to him in the form of jealousy. it doesn't help … more

Alright if you haven't read my other reviews, this is basically my background info so you'll see where this review is coming from: Basically I wanted to see what all the hype was about Twilight so I bought the series on audiobooks and listened to it (against my better judgment) in the car on a road trip. The story is so shallow and lacking any real literary value. I think the hype stems from a combination of right-place-right-time and being so generic that anybody can relate to it. By the … more

In the third book of the Twilight series, Eclipse, the characters really are looked into more, especially Jacob. By that point we have already learned that Jacob is a werewolf but we learn more about his background and the story of the werewolf in his family and legacy. Stephanie Meyer gets much deeper into the characters and who they are how they came to be where they are now. This book I felt was the most in-depth. But it also had a great deal of suspense and intensity … more

Ugh! Bella has some serious heart issues. Imagine having to choose a boyfriend between a werewolf and a vampire... It just goes to show that following your heart could sometimes be bad for you.

Aside from Twilight, I'd say Eclipse is my second favorite book in the series. It doesn't have the depressing connotations of New Moon, and it doesn't have the overdrawn story elements of Breaking Dawn. In a lot of ways, it's a return to what originally made Twilight such a pleasurable read. It is a bit formulaic, but maybe that's not such a bad thing given what these books are about and who they are marketed for.

When I finished New Moon by Stephanie Meyer I knew I'd want to read more of the series, but wasn't particularly worried about waiting awhile. Then I learned what everyone else already knew, that there really are only four books to read... and that the movie's coming soon. So I decided perhaps it was time to catch up on Eclipse. The story really does move forward in Eclipse, and the characters really do change--not magically, but humanly, growing deeper and wiser. … more

As unpopular as it may be to say...I love the Twilight saga and Eclipse moved the story forward much more effectively than New Moon.

About this book
The legions of readers who are hooked on the romantic struggles of Bella and the vampire Edward will ecstatically devour this third installment of the story begun inTwilight, but it's unlikely to win over any newcomers. Jake, the werewolf met in New Moon, pursues Bella with renewed vigilance. However, when repercussions from an episode inTwilightplace Bella in the mortal danger that series fans have come to expect, Jake and Edward forge an uneasy alliance. The plot patterns have begun to show here, but Meyer's other strengths remain intact. The supernatural elements accentuate the ordinary human dramas of growing up. Jake and Edward's competition for Bella feels particularly authentic, especially in their apparent desire to best each other as much as to win Bella. Once again the author presents teenage love as an almost inhuman force: "[He] would have been my soul mate still," says Bella, "if his claim had not been overshadowed by something stronger, something so strong that it could not exist in a rational world." According to Meyer, the fourth book should tie up at least the Edward story, if not the whole shebang. Ages 12-up. (Aug.) Copyright 2007 Reed Business Information
