New Moon



Ok, so I don't want to give too much away, but listen...minor characters from Twilight had a major role in New Moon and Stephenie Meyer did a really good job at keeping me interested. She pulled a J.J. Abrams (you remember when all your favourite Lost characters fell to the background and "the others" became the main story line...yeah I hated it!) but Stephenie Meyer really did a good job. Though I missed my favourite characters like crazy, she really did have me caring for the new ones.

You know what's weird though, in my Twilight post, I wrote that she knew love as Shakespeare did. And it's funny because New Moon completely revolves around Romeo and Juliet. Not only does New Moon reference it a whole bunch, but the story seems to mirror the tragic play a little bit. It's kind of interesting. And it happens to be my favourite play, so I am not complaining. At first, I got a little sad when Edward (vampire) said that he had no respect for Romeo because he made really bad decisions, but he takes it back in the end for good reason! :) <3 See, I love love love Romeo. Yeah, he made some bad decisions, and even he knew he did..but he really did love Juliet. <3 And Edward really loves Bella.
