Readers captivated by Twilight and New Moon will eagerly devour Eclipse, the much anticipated third book in Stephenie Meyer's riveting vampire love saga. As Seattle is ravaged by a string of mysterious killings and a malicious vampire continues her quest for revenge, Bella once again finds herself surrounded by danger. In the midst of it all, she is forced to choose between her love for Edward and her friendship with Jacob --- knowing that her decision has the potential to ignite the ageless struggle between vampire and werewolf. With her graduation quickly approaching, Bella has one more decision to make: life or death. But which is which?
The third installment was definitely better than the 2nd. I guess the 2nd was just really full of a lot more "set-up". I am finding the story fairly predictable. And honestly, it is a fairly fun light read ... I'm just older and cynical at the moment and all this "finding the person you want to spend forever with at 18" (and hello, not just one but *two* potential life-partners by that age). Well yeah, whatever. Who didn't think that when they fell in love as a teenager it'd be forever. When it's your first love, you can't believe anything but. So that parts getting a little sickly sweet and "meh, whatever" for me. But regardless, I'll definitely keep reading ;)
