New Moon (The Twilight Saga, Book 2)

Excellent book
This is a great sequel to Twilight. Stephenie Meyers really hammers in the impact of the characters' relationships, and creates a love triangle for us to argue over.

Excellent book
At first glance I was disappointed with this book because I opened it up and saw a bunch of pretty photos. I thought I had bought a picture book with no real value of teaching me how to take great photographs.
