New Moon


I finished reading Stephenie Meyer's book, New Moon, just a little while ago. This is the second in a series of four Young Adult lit books. Normally, I am not into vampire books, movies, anything really. So I was surprised to find that I liked the first, Twilight, book so much.


In the second book, Bella, the main character finds herself in a bit of a love triangle with a werewolf and a vampire. I have to admit I found the Jacob character a very obvious foil for Edward. As such, it made for a thin layer of character development and plot. Be that as it may, it was an enjoyable read, and I will continue with the series. I do want to see how the love drama plays out with these two larger than life lads.

I hear the second book is the worst of the four, and I find that encouraging. And who knew I'd be torn between rooting for a vampire and a werewolf, and actually enjoy it all the while?
