New Moon is a romantic drama filled story based on the relationship of Bella Swan and Edward Cullen. What makes their relationship interesting is that Edward is a vampire.  After the first book of the saga, Twilight, Bella and Edwards relationship was in a very good place. Their relationship takes a twist when Edward leaves because he is afraid he is putting Bella’s life in danger, considering he has evil vampires chasing after him. This crushes Bella and sends here on a wild journey trying new and crazy things such as riding motorcycles and jumping of cliffs into oceans. She also has a good friend named Jacob who accompanies Bella through her journey. What makes Jacob and Bellas relationship different is that Jacob is a wolf. Yes he morphs into a wolf. But that’s not it, he is also in love with Bella although she doesn’t feel the same way. Bella decides she can’t stand life without Edward and goes to find him with the help of his sister Alice. This book was a page turner and I couldn’t put it down. I think Bella is a little dramatic when Edward leaves considering she lays in the woods until the police had to come find her! I wish New Moon had a different ending instead of them going back home and everything being dandy like a fairy tale because this book is different than many others and needed a different ending. Otherwise I enjoyed reading New Moon.
