Why I hated it...
The writing is very muddled. A good thought comes up and becomes suddenly lost by other varient distractions. Many lost opportunites for good exploration. I really missed the vampires after the first couple of chapters. I felt like I read 350 pages worth of crap waiting for the wanna be werewolf boyfriend to either A.)Make a substantiated move on Bella / B.) Be massacured by the absent villan vampiress Victoria who doesn't even manage to eat a bug in this book but still plays a major role.
As much as we all love a good soap opera this one makes me vomit.
Why I liked it....
The exploration of teenage emotions is phenominal. I have been there. I have lived it... minus the evil alter egos, (although at the time it felt like they really were vampires and werewolves). Now with plus years and addtional superhuman characters added to my experience equation I can read fantasy crap like this and laugh. The end of the book took me by surprise. I loved the irony of the torist being hurdled like cattle into the lare of the Italian Vampire Mob. The Edward Bella Romance is as strong as ever by the end of this mess.
Many chapters could have been deleted out from the middle of this book. It can be stripped and rewritten without losing the core idea. And still have an epic worth sheding tears over.
Would I read it again? NO
Would I see the movie sequal? Only if it's revised correctly when the screenwriter gets it.
Will I read the next book? Of couse, saddly I am hooked on this crap to the bitter end.
