New Moon

New Moon
Stephanie Meyer

I must admit that i started reading New Moon awhile ago but i stopped reading it at about page 50 in the book. I just started reading New Moon again. This blog post will be a little bit of a review of the last book and what I read in New Moon.
On Bella's birthday She gets injured due to her opening a present and getting a paper cut. The Cullen's immediately smelt the blood. Edwards brother, Jasper the one that mostly wasn't able to control his craving for the blood. Jasper couldn't control his self well so he travels far away with Alice. After these events Edwards mood toward Bella totally changed. Edward seemed to become more irritable, sad, and angry. Stephanie Meyer sets the mood by making it all seem very awkward between Edward and Bella through out the text. Bella seems to be forceful with their love. I think Bella knows that things between them aren't going well and somewhere deep down she knows that Edward is growing apart from her in someway or another. Bella never confronts Edward for some reason. I think Bella doesn't confront Edward about the awkward/tension between them because she's afraid. She's afraid that whats going on between them is something that is ruining them and their love is fading. I think she longs for it to pass and for the next day to come where its back to normal; Edward showing his real true love to Bella. Bella can't confront this to Edward because then what she knows what will happen will hit her like a brick wall. Them breaking up. They have to break up, their is no way that they couldn't because of how one another is acting i just can't see them overcoming this at this time. I even began to cringe of the uncomfortableness between Bella and Edward. Of course, Edward does end up breaking up with Bella and breaking her heart. Edward never technically says to Bella that they should break up. He says that its time for him to leave. He also tells her that he does love her and he will always be watching out for her. He then vanishes from the woods. Bella is then left there, an absolute mess. I stopped reading there because I couldn't deal with what just happened and it made me even become an absolute mess myself. It took me about two months of pure depression to be able to start reading again. So here i am....continuing to read. Although i am a little worried what is about to come of the book considering Edward is going to be out of the picture at least for awhile.
