New Moon is the sequel of Stephenie Meyer’s remarkable Twilight. If you have read the first book in the series (Twilight) then you would love to read this second one. This novel will give you a better understanding of the story.
This book shows complexity and intrigue as the plot thickens and introduced new characters into the series. There comes Jacob Black- Bella’s childhood friend that turned into a wolf, a huge wolf I may add. More adventure and suspense can be seen as Bella’s life with her extraordinary friends continues.
When Edward left forks, Jacob and Bella started spending more time with each other, which later on turned into something deeper. I know fans of Edward and those who support the Edward-Bella team up will be disappointed by Edward’s diminished presence in the book. However, it is not for long because at the end of the series, Edward is back in the scene.
New Moon realistically depicts the intense emotions of teenagers. The thrill seeking, issues among relationships- friends and lovers, and the urge to follow what they think is best and what they want.
In some part of the story, I find it a bit boring. It is not as fast-paced especially the middle section. Unlike Twilight, every scene is good and mostly gives a happy romantic feeling. The sorrow and pain that Bella felt when Edward abandoned her is what this story is all about. Some aspects of the story maybe predictable but it still is a good book since it will work well even if it is a standalone novel.
