New Moon is the sequel to Stephanie Meyer’s remarkably good debut novel Twilight
The pain
that Bella feels when
Edward
abandon
s her is
extremel
y well
written
and is
really
what this
story is
about
Bella has been
going out with her vampire
boyfriend Edward for six
blissfully happy
months.
The only thing
that worries her
is his st
eadfast
refusal to even
consider
making her into
a vampire like
him.
On Bella's eighteenth birthday, Edward
manages to persuade her to come to his
house on the evening of her birthday for a
party thrown by Alice.
Bella receives a paper cut
while opening one of her
gifts, causing Jasper
(Edward's brother, also the 'newest' member of
the family) to try to attack
her.
Edward believes that
she would be safer
without him, his
family, and his
dangerous style of life,
so he and his family
leave Forks
Bella sinks into a deep
depression for four
months, until she is
'awoken' out of her
depression by Charlie,
her father. He threatens
to send her back to live
with her mother in
Jacksonville, Florida
Still depressed, she
becomes closer friends
with Jacob Black, who
fixes a motorcycle for
her and teaches her to
ride.
Through small clues he drops,
she finally realizes what
has happened to her best friend:
he has become a werewolf.
Alice sees Bella
jump, a cliff she
believes Bella had committed suicide, and
subsequently
returns to Forks
Edward attempts
to convince a
group of Italian
vampires, the
volturi, to kill him
Together with his sister Alice, Bella
rushes to Italy and stops Edward
before the Volturi can destroy him
She eventually forgives him entirely, and they continue with their relationship as
though Edward had never left
with the exception that Bella has ties
that cannot be broken with a
werewolf named Jacob Black
Bella successfully seeks the support of Edward's
family on turning her into a vampire.
While Edward is furious at the
prospect, he later agrees to change
her himself if she agrees to marry
him first
