Chapter's 18-27
"Eclipse"
Boy, did the last part of this book really have me going. I started reading and couldn't put it down!!! Slow start ended up with fast ending, I thought I was really going to be disappointed but it sure showed me!
Bella finally graduated and now it was time to fight the newborns and Victoria, but first they had to get Bella's scent so she went through the woods part way with Edward and part way with Jacob, and spent the night in a tent in the woods. Edward protected Bella inside and Jacob and Seth took the outside until the weather turned for the worst and the only one who could save Bella from freezing to death was Jacob. What was ironic was how calm and collective Edward really was considering his fiancee was so close to a man/werewolf who was so totally in love with her, but he knew she would freeze if not. So when they woke up things were said and minds were read, until in a way Jacob and Edward came to an agreement with Bella. Edward gave time for Bella to say goodbye, but it only ended up with Bella figuring out she did have feelings for Jacob only to know that her true love was Edward. This crushed Jacob, but in a way it was a relief I think to know that he wasn't just infatuated with a girl that had no feelings for her, but she knew what she had to do.
So Jacob went off to fight the newborns, and was hurt as Leah made a terrible mistake. All the while Victoria and her spawn found Bella, Edward and Seth and once again Seth and Edward had to save the day, but this time Bella did have some help by distracting Victoria and allowing Seth rip them apart. There was one newborn left, but Carislie wanted to try to transform it but of course the Volutri destroyed it knowing it would only cause more trouble in the end. It was a nice ending to see finally Bella wasn't being hunted any longer or wasn't in immediate danger.
Now it'll be interesting to see in the final book of the series, will she marry Edward or will she go to the other side of being with Jacob? Will she allow Edward to change her into a vampire? She is suppose to be enrolled at Dartmouth, will she go or just use that as a cover?
Once again so many questions unanswered, that is makes me wonder will the ending of the last book tie up all the loose ends or leaving us wanting more?
Happy Reading!!!
