| | Customer Reviews: Eclipse The Twilight Saga (12 March 2010)I thought it was a good book better, i read it in one day and that never happens with me. I recommend this book to anyone who like love stories with a little danger to them. Awesome. (12 March 2010)If you love or like Twilight you have to read this book. Even if you just like love books you must read this. A lot happens and its all really well tolled. Drags On (11 March 2010)I don't really understand why these books are so popular. Twilight was great but the series seems to get worse after each book. Her writing, especially in Eclipse, goes on and on and on without much action. She probably could have cut the book in half if not more, and gotten to the point. The fight scenes are weak and it took forever to go from scene to scene. Bella's entire life revolves around Edward. She's willing to give up being human, her family, her friends, Jacod--for one man? I don't think I'll read Breaking Dawn. It got bad reveiws and I can't imagine reading that many pages of nothing. Whatever happened? (09 March 2010)I confess. My favorite character in Twilight was Edward. I honestly could never understand what the fuss was about Bella. Sure, she may have been smart, but she had no interests, no hobbies, doesn't do sports, and is not creative. She has absolutely no interesting quality whatsoever. How dull can one person be? Those boys may have been attracted to her but I doubt if any of them would have gone for a second date. She would have bored the living daylights out of them! In Eclipse, Bella is even more horrified of any normal social interaction than ever before, sulkier, and ungrateful. However, what really turned me off was the fact that the Edward I so liked in Twilight seems to have disappeared. Edward used to have a personality, and a sense of humor which are totally lacking in Eclipse. Where is the boy who blocked Bella's car to let Tyler ask her out, just to see her face while he laughed? Where is the endearing boy who was such a tease and got such a kick our of discovering he was a good kisser? This completely self-sacrificing, saintly, lump on a log did not resemble the original Edward in the least. His entire purpose in this book is to run himself ragged trying to keep an unappreciative Bella safe and seemingly lost his sense of humor and everything else in the process. Talk about a living statue! You really can picture them as a couple sitting unmoving on a porch somewhere. It was hard to remember that he's supposed to be beautiful, sexy, and edgy the way he acted throughout the book. As far as Jacob. I had no problem with the fact that Bella could love and be agonizing about hurting her best friend, but he should not have been anything more than that. That soul mate nonsense was over the top and totally unnecessary. Please! What a crock! All in all, not nearly what I expected and a bit of a disappointment not necessarily for the story, but the loss of the characters I liked. Loved It (08 March 2010)Saw Twilight and New Moon. Read Eclipse very quickly!!!This is the first book I'vd read and I am hooked. May go back and read the first two. I am reading Breaking Dawn- Can't wait to see the movies.Cute story for the teens. | |
