Legions of readers entranced by Twilight are hungry for more and they won't be disappointed. In New Moon, Stephenie Meyer delivers another irresistible combination of romance and suspense with a supernatural twist. The "star-crossed" lovers theme continues as Bella and Edward find themselves facing new obstacles, including a devastating separation, the mysterious appearance of dangerous wolves roaming the forest in Forks, a terrifying threat of revenge from a female vampire and a deliciously sinister encounter with Italy's reigning royal family of vampires, the Volturi. Passionate, riveting, and full of surprising twists and turns, this vampire love saga is well on its way to literary immortality.

Twilight Series
Bought the whole series for my daughter and she loves them - she was not a reader until these came along

The Most Difficult Book I've Ever Been Through
5 Stars? Absolutely. Amazing writing, fantastic sequel to 'Twilight?' Completely.

That being said, this is THE most difficult book I have ever made my way through. It created for me an emotional roller coaster--through most of the book I found myself sobbing as I shared in Bella's pain and confliction, and as I wondered what would come next and how all would be resolved.

I couldn't put it down, but please be warned--as amazing as 'New Moon' is, your heart and your tear ducts will feel raw and vulnerable the entire time.

It's worth it. But I will NEVER read this book again. I couldn't possibly put myself, or my favorite characters, through so much pain ever again.

I enjoyed it
I first have to say I am not a teen.My niece a teen is a big fan of the books and got me curious. I am also not a fan of vampire and werewolves movies. But this book hooked me and I found it interesting. It was easy reading, discriptive without being scary. The characters hooked me and I kept reading eventually all 4 of the series of books.

Loved this book. And you will really feel the pain and sorrow that Bella goes through while trying to survive.

Well written
As with Twilight, you must be a romantic to appreciate. This book is just so well written. It is the only book I have read in recent memory that made me cry!

Somewhat disgusted...
After reading Twilight, I had high hopes for New Moon but soon found myself VERY disappointed. Edward leaves Bella in the effort to giver her a normal life. I don't understand why he thought she would live so easily without him. He clearly stated that he didn't want to live without her and she is WAY more obsessed with him than he is of her so why did he assume she would be ok? Alice even told him that she would not be ok! The fact is that she definitely wasn't ok. She was severly depressed and ANNOYING! The fact that she is so obsessed and dependent on Edward makes me want to vomit. Get a backbone, Bella. He left you...get mad and do something about it. When Edward does reappear she's not even upset with him. She's more than happy to take him back. She tells him that it wasn't his fault at all when in reality it is. By the end of this, I was not a very big fan of Bella. Jacob was great...the best friend one could ask for. Right now, I'm leaning more towards Jacob than Edward. Edward is controlling and stubborn(even though I still love him) but Jacob is sweet kind and realistic. I'm going to have to say that SM could have done a better job with this book.

I did not want to put it down.

My Second Vampire Book Ever...
I don't read vampire books, at least that is what I said before I read Twilight. After that, I couldn't wait for New Moon to arrive in the mail! This one is not so much a vampire story, but the story of lost love. Sure, to some it may seam overdone, and Bella's reactions during her time with Jacob seem out of character. But losing someone that is a part of you makes you do things that you never would have done before. I thought the author captured the loss of love and the feelings very well. If Eclipse is as good as the first two books, I might have to admit that I like vampire books!
