Book Reviews of Eclipse (Twilight Saga)

I have read Twilight, New Moon & now Eclipse in a matter of 9 days. I have never not been able to put a book down like this, EVER! Meyer is a fantasic writer to say the very least. You can relate to the characters at least on some level and they leave you NEEDING to know what's going to happen. I know lots of people aren't interested in "vampire" stuff, but these books are about so much more than vampires. Certainly the last to jump on the Twilight band wagon, but oh so glad I did. I couldn't be more pleased with a writing!

Third in the series and still holding strong. This is the first book I've "bought" in a long time. I like the 1st and 2nd books more but this one was still good. I have a feeling that a lot of this book was to set the stage for the fourth book. At some points the story drags but then goes too fast in another points (as does real life). This "young adult" series still has this "grown up" reader interested enought to keep reading more by this author.

This is the third (and possibly final?) installment of the thrilling series (following TWILIGHT and NEW MOON) that has many teens and adults alike enthralled by the passion of Edward and Bella.

Could it now be over?

Bella believes that she wants to be a vampire, but she must fight with herself to make sure that's what she really wants. There have been many killings in Seattle and, once again, Bella is in danger. Graduation is right around the corner and she is faced with the hardest decision of her life -- life or death? And which is which?

ECLIPSE is a good closing to the series, if this is indeed the end, but there are a few times that the writing is a little vague. I'll be very sad to see these characters go, but at the same time, I'm worried that if there are any more books the story may begin to seem drug out.

Very good overall, though!

The third book of the Twilight saga has a great deal of interest and still pulls the reader through it, as the first two books did so well. Stephanie Meyer does an excellent example of explaining emotion and sentiment. The trials and tribulations of this book do not seem to be as great as those in the previous 2 books, but it does lead to more questions in the end. By the end of the book, the burning desire to read the final book of the saga was definitely increased.
