New Moon
Stepehnie Meyer
pg94-95
In New Moon, Stephanie Meyer is able to capture hearbreak. Bella is heartbroken over Edward and truly can't cope with it. Meyers writes, "Charlie's fist came fown on the table. "That's it Bella!, I'm sending you home." I looked up from my cereal, which i was pndering rather than eating, and stared at Charlie in shock. I hadn't been following the converstation- actually, I hadn't been aware that we were having a conversation- and i wasn't sure what he meant."
Charlie can't stand the way Bella has been acting. Charlie results in sending her back with her mother so she can atleast start fresh and maybe be happy again. Charlie knows that Bella's dealing with heart break. Charlie too has dealt with heart break from Bella's mother. Although that was a very lonely time for him, he still dealt with it and tryed to move on. After about 4 months from when Edward left, Bella was physically in Forks, but she wasn't really logically. Charlie see's that Bella's enthusiasm is dead and he can't stand seeing her like this. Stephani writes,
"You didn't do anything. That's the problem. You never do anything." "You want me to get into trouble?" I wondered, my eyebrows pulling together in mystification. I made an effort to pay attention. It wasn't easy I was so used to tuning everthing out, my ears felt sopped up.
"Trouble would be better than this.. moping around all the time!" That stung a bit. I'd been careful to avoid all forms of moroseness, moping included.
"I am not moping around."
"Wrong word." he frudgingly conceded.
"Moping would be better- that would be doing something. You're just ... lifeless, Bella. I think that's that word I want."
Bella is totally lifeless after Edward left. She based her whole life in Forks around Edward. Now that he has left her, her heart is broken and she can't cope with it. Its as if she doesn't want to confront that Edward is truely gone and that she really just doesn't want to move on. She rather be lifeless and not feel then feel the pain that Edward has caused her.
P.S.Twighlight is coming out in 3 days! OMG!

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.
