My perosnal take....

If you treasure your thoughts and opinions about Twilight or New Moon then Please Don't Read On. I'm about the thrash them.

Okay so I have said I would be giving my overall opinion on the second book of the vampire series of Bella and Edward in New Moon..

Where do I begin?

First of all, somebody please put the cork back into my head I think my brains just gushed out all over the floor from all of the "emo" garbage. How much can one person write about with such a pathetic life? Did Stephenie Meyer go into some kind of depressed state of being when she wrote this? It sounds as if she actually lived her life out through Bella. Always wanting something she couldn't have and did nothing but dwell on the impossible. Mormons tend to do that. Most of us would get on with our lives and figure it out.

Personally, I have been in Bella's shoes with the "emo" depression and let me tell you, at the age of 17 to 18 I learned a very hard lesson in life about "love", but it didn't take me months to figure out that I had a life to live instead of shutting myself in my "emo room". Please spare me any of your comments like "I don't understand" or "I am unable to relate", because I really don't care what you think, this is what I think!

As far as Stephenie's grasp of the language, she is very colorful and very good at writing with such description. She could convey the emotions and thoughts very clearly and I appreciated her writing skills.

I have to be honest, the Mormon mentality of what and how she wrote was absolutely the epitome of what I grew up around with most of my Mormon friends. I remember things about my youth of which happened in my church which I can relate to Stephenie's character Bella.

Bottom line, DON'T READ New Moon unless you are into Goth or Total depressive state and even then don't read it. It will further you into a state of depression as to where you'll probably commit suicide.

One thing I truly disliked was how Edward disobeyed Charlie's wishes to be out of the house by 9pm and then turned around and snuck back into Bella's window after pretending to leave. What a slime bag. But once again, it's a Mormon's fantasy as a girl thinking of only herself. Can you tell I'm hung up on this Moron, I mean Mormon thing? What kind of a "107 year old" man (Edward) would not show the respect of the love of his life's father (Charlie). I was told that he was admirable in his respect for Bella, but what about other's feelings and wishes. Obviously he doesn't care what other's think or give them the respect that he claims to give if he is going behind their backs to do what he wants anyways. If I caught "Edward" in my house against my wishes, there would be no question of what I would do to the idiot. I would KFSS his butt!!! Again, say what ever you wish, but not even Edward Cullen could stand up to a KFSS artist such as myself. So there! :-P


Jacob, on the other hand is my kind of kid. He's real and down to earth, oh wait that's right, he's another mythical creature of which the "Mormon" mentality likes to dwell upon. I thought we were supposed to be above that as Mormons? This must be the reason why I left the Mormon religion. They contradicted their selves and without regret or reason were very hypocritical. Again, can you tell I'm against the "Mormon" mentality?

My bottom line of the first two books. TRASH!! Complete Crap! Vampires, what a crock and absolutely worth staying away from. There was no excitement other than the fact that the Voltari was going to eat Edward. I had only hoped the Edward would succeed in getting him self killed so I wouldn't have to read the next two books. Yes you read correctly. I decided to read these pathetic books so I can be clued in to what's happening and be part of the "IN" crowd just to please my surroundings.

Don't worry, I don't plan on posting reviews about the next two books, unless they turn around with their mentality and stop trying to play in reality. I suppose these would be a lot better if Stephenie didn't try so hard to make them real. You might say they are just stories, but I put to you the question. Do you want to be made eternal? Do you want or fantasize about being bitten? If you do, then you need a dose of reality and this kind of fantasy is not healthy!

Enough said, I've bashed this thing long enough. And no one tell me I'm not aloud to, because I've read the first two books and I so deserve my opinion. If you don't participate then how can you make a stand. And don't include the movies, they don't count because they always, always, always, always.. did I mention always, SUCK when compared to the book. At least with the book, my Bella, Jacob and Edward are much more attractive.

Kristin, Robert, and Taylor (well maybe not him, he's actually a good looking kid) are very unattractive as people and the movies made them even more grotesque. Ok, I suppose that was stepping over the line with all of you "Twi" lovers out there. Ask me if I care? NOPE!

Hope you enjoyed my review. :-D

Don't worry, this is the only negative post I'll probably ever make. This series has just really gotten under my skin. My other posts are usually about my awesome wife and my beloved family.

God Bless!
