message 3951: by ஐ Katya (Book Queen)ஐ (last edited Nov 08, 2010 06:24PM) (new)

ஐ Katya (Book Queen)ஐ (katyabookqueen) I hated the 300+ pages of Bella's sad pity party in the first half of New Moon. I was shocked at what prompted it, not knowing it was coming. I thought the Volturi bit made the ending far more fun. :) Yeah, not having to wait a year or more between books is a benefit, I'm sure.

Lucky you. I did enjoy it, but you have to overlook some things or suspend alot of disbelief to just go with the flow and not analyze it.


Unapologetic_Bookaholic | 2002 comments @Kate I am just a few pages in and so far its decent (hehe). Yes, I am going in. I am just happy to have a copy of the book and lots of free time finally.

I'll admit to liking the first book Twilight much better than the second book, New Moon. I'm now starting the third, Eclipse, and at the moment, can't get into it. Annoys me that not only is her father giving her ultimatiums, and she's giving him some back, but now Edward is. Just annoying that everyone is telling her what she can't do.


message 3961: by Melanie (new)

Melanie (melaina) | 1339 comments K.. Christine - I have a question about the bonus: can I count double if it's "elemental" magic (pulling earth, fire,....etc)? or does it have to be spells, potions and wands?

Christine (cdunbar) | 635 comments Congrats, Dee!

And question: can it be any military? Because I'm about to start Bayou Moon and the lead was in the military, but a parallel world one.


message 3975: by Dee (new)

Dee (austhokie) | 7316 comments sure - any military! i'm feeling generous!


ஐ Katya (Book Queen)ஐ (katyabookqueen) eerrr, does it matter how long ago they served? lol

Reading Eclipse in the Twilight Saga and Jasper served in the Civil War ages ago before being turned into a vampire.


message 3977: by Dee (new)

Dee (austhokie) | 7316 comments that's fine...lol! not being picky! if you guys feel it meets the spirit of the bonus it can count


ஐ Katya (Book Queen)ஐ (katyabookqueen) Thanks Dee. They're also fighting their own war against Victoria and her army if that helps although that's not exactly "military". Jasper will be in Breaking Dawn too, but don't know if he'll mention his military service to count it. In this one, Eclipse, he details and explains his history as a human and how he became a vampire so his military service is explained. (He was the youngest Major in the Confederate Army in Texas.)
