Book Review: Worth the wait!
Summary: 5 Stars
Eclispse, the much anticipated (maybe by just me of course) sequel in the Twilight Saga, was worth the wait. The story picks up where the last one left off..Edward has returned to Forks, Washington to his true love, Bella Swan. Bella is close to graduating, and becoming the one thing that she desires...a vampire. Edward is struggling daily to make her reconsider her decision and keep her "humanity", believing that she should have the choice, which is one that he never did. Meanwhile, Jacob Black, Bella's best friend (who happens to be a werewolf) is struggling with his the knowledge that Bella wants to be a vampire, and that he is hopelessly in love with her. While all of these issues are at the forefront of the novel, there are other underlying problems like Bella's clumsiness; a secret society of vampires who want her to become immortal; a suspected serial killer, who may potentially be a newly turned vampire killing in Seattle; an old arch enemy whose sole desire is Bella's death; an uneasy alliance between the werewolves and the vampires; and Bella's pending acceptances to colleges. And finally what makes this novel so endearing and enjoyable is that underneath it all, there is a simple story of young love and sacrifice.
In my opinion, what I found to be most compelling about the story is Meyer's ability to make Jacob Black appear to potentially be better for Bella than Edward! Of course, Edward has stated on more than one occassion that "Bella's happiness is the most important thing to him whether that means being with him or not", but for the first time I really started to consider what life would be if Bella was with Jacob instead of Edward? Afterall, she would not have to give up "anything", while becoming a vampire she would. Perhaps this love triangle was just what Meyer intended. When we were introduced to Jacob in the first book, it appeared that he would be in the same league as Mike, a character mentioned, but not critical to the storyline. However, when we were reintroduced to him in Book 2, and we saw him rescue Bella from heartbreak, we knew that he was a force to be reckoned with. Now he is such a strong character, that my heart simply went out to him in the final chapter, and I found myself liking him more than Edward. (It even made me think of Buffy, Spike and Angel...on some level, because in the end, you really weren't sure which guy is best, especially since they are so willing to sacrifice their happiness for hers).
What I also like about Meyer's series is that although I am well in my 30's, I really enjoyed this well written and clean story. Although I read other paranormal romances, full of sex and violence, this is one that I could give a young reader and not feel bad about. There are definately undertones and hints eluding to sex, but it isn't so overwhelming in the story that it becomes the story (a la Laurell Hamilton), and nothing else. This is a story that even without the sex was good and enjoyable.
I can't wait until the next one comes out, and I definately can not wait to see what happens to Bella, Jacob or Edward.
