3 out of 5 stars Liked the alliance, but still irritated by character development!   November 18, 2008
I liked how the alliance between the werewolves and vampires came to fruition, but I still find the love triangle between Bella, Edward, and Jacob had to believe! Either way the best part of the book was about the legend of the spirit warriors, maybe Stephenie should take her time and write a quality book about the werewolves and try to be a bit more conscientious of writing strong female characters.


4 out of 5 stars Amazing!   November 18, 2008

This author is amazing. This portion of the story had just enough twists and revelations to leave me wanting more.


4 out of 5 stars Not as good, but needed   November 18, 2008
This is probably my least favorite of the four books, but the details in it are definitely necessary for the story as a whole. I'm not quite to the halfway point of book four, and I just love the "story" in this saga. I do not know that I have ever read such long books so quickly, but my attention is caught and rapt and Stephenie never lets it go. I truly am "thirsting" for more.


5 out of 5 stars Girlfriend made me read it...   November 18, 2008
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

I started this series at my girlfriend's recommendation. I was afraid it would be like those Danielle Steele books. But it was surprising. This particular book in the series starts tying up some loose ends and I have already bought the 4th book in the series to read next.


1 out of 5 stars Potential abusers galore (SPOILER at the end)   November 18, 2008
Eclipse, being the third book in the Twilight series, made me very twitchy. It wasn't the character development, which is not Meyer's strong point. And it wasn't the advancement of the plot, which IS Meyer's strong point.

No, my problem with this novel for young adults is the red flag behavior from both Edward and Jacob, marking them as likely potential abusers. Is Meyer for real with this? What is the deal with Bella? She is such an idiot. Granted, she's a teenager so no one has perhaps sat her down for a talk about how it is necessary to cultivate a sense of self-preservation and personal dignity. No, this girl lets Edward get away with being a masterful control freak who tells her where she can and cannot go and who she can and cannot be friends with. I found it really worrying. Will teenage girls read this and think that this is how "true love" is supposed to be?

And what about Jacob and his physical pushiness? It bothered me that he forced himself on Bella in a sexual manner and that she punched him, sure...but then was okay with it, not even appearing to be all that bothered. And what about Charlie's reaction when Bella told him that Jacob forced a kiss on her? "Didja hit him? Well, good. But go, tiger! Woo!"

I did not enjoy Meyer's trip into the freaktastic world of controllers and predators where girls get stalked by their boyfriends' sisters and put on "house arrest" so that they won't go see friends who are considered to be off limits. A place where boyfriends will indulge in dangerous driving (Edward being two inches behind Bella's truck's bumper as she left LaPush so that he could show her how upset he was) in order to punish the naughty girlfriend for going to see a friend. Could that be any more wrong?

And yet somehow, Meyer presents her plot and characters as if this is an understandable and even commendable way to behave.

Very troubling. This is not empowering for girls. Bella is not a character for girls to look up to. She is a weakling and an idiot and she's so besotted with Edward, she ignores things that should have any girl with a brain telling a guy to get the hell out of her life. It really bothered me that Bella keeps parroting the words that Edward is the sweetest and the kindest and the most unselfish and the bestest undead boyfriend a girl could ever have....ugh. We found out in "Twilight" that he's a stalker who's not averse to a little B&E and "New Moon" didn't do much to redeem him. Now we've got Crazy Jealous Boyfriend who has to constantly keep tabs on the little woman. Ugh.

SPOILER ALERT

I've read "Breaking Dawn" and I know there's a happy ending and that Bella develops a spine and a brain, but still... In both "Eclipse" and "Breaking Dawn," Edward and Jacob emerge primarily as egotistical, arrogant people with a testosterone overload. Girls, please don't these characters are what make a good boyfriend in real life.
