So my friends have been all over me for a LONG time saying the following (I'm not exaggerating):
"OMG! You MUST read Twilight!!! It's the BEST book EVER!!!!" and so on... Obviously after lots and lots of begging from their part I read it. But that's because one of them actually bought it for me!!! They really wanted me to read it. When I sat down to read the book, I'll admit, I was a bit scared. I didn't know what I would think of it. Let's just say it was 50/50. I have to admit the first chapters sucked me in. And since I was starting to watch the
Vampire Knight anime at the time, I immediately thought of
Zero/Yuuki (Bad idea, I must say). After a couple of chapters the story was at a low-point. If anyone has read the book, they might remember the chapters where practically
NOTHING happened. You know, when Edward took Bella to school, they had lunch together, and he took her back home. And the author repeated this over and over. I hated that part so much. So much I almost made this book a
DNF. That would've been a bad move from my part. I survived those parts and the book turned out so good by the second half. I seriously fell in love with it. The thrill, the suspense, everything.
I don't know if this happened to anyone else, but I liked Jacob since the first book. I thought he was really sweet, but then came New Moon. Oh New Moon. This book never kept me bored. Thank God. Stephenie Meyer didn't add random Bella crap to this one. The only thing was that... I was kind of disillusioned by Jake (unlike a friend of mine who fell totally for Jacob thanks to this book). I just think he was too moody in this book. And Bella? She's just awful. She's clingy, dependent, crazy (Oh please, those 'voices'?? And what about the extreme shit she was doing??) and a really bad friend. I just cannot believe how much Jacob can handle this bitch!!! But oh well, I think that's what makes one more immersed in this book. I really did feel that Edward didn't have much part in the book. That's kind of sad.
Oh and I have no idea which guy I support. Jacob/Bella or Edward/Bella?? Honestly, she doesn't deserve them. I guess I'm stuck in 'Team Switzerland'.
And I really want to read Eclipse, but I'll wait until May 31. Then I'll go buy it Special Edition. ^__^
