HELLO AGAIN!!!!! Summer Stuff Part One

Haha!!! Did you miss me? Well, I am officially back!! And right now I am actually posting from home. I might have to get used to doing this the slow way, and don't be surprised if I don't update my pictures as often as I did last year. The school got new computers this year and they're totally high tech and small, so there's no way I can sit in the library and hide from the librarian what I'm really doing. And I also don't have that computer class this year (I am a sophomore now!!! Only THREE MORE YEARS!!!!) and I'm not sure if I am going to be able to be on the yearbook staff. I am going to have a lote more homework this year because I am taking an honors English class.
Anyway, has anyone read ECLIPSE yet? I hope so!!! Because I am going to start talking about it now. If you haven't read it yet, then I suggest you don't read any more of this until you see where I say it is safe.
OMG!! I CRIED FOR HOURS AFTER I FINISHED THIS BOOK!!!!!!! I mean, I love Edward, and I totally wanted Bella to pick him, but I loved Jacob too!!! Stephenie Meyer did a really good job at making sure that we all totally loved both of them, so it would be heartbreaking no matter which way it went. There is a quote, well, really a passage, um, actually a short part of a conversation from the book that I totally can't get out of my head, even a month later! I will put it at the bottom of this post. I think that it is the quote of the book.
Was anyone else sorta disappointed at how the fight with Victoria went? They totally build up to this showdown in both of the previous books and it is like, supposed to be this huge thing and it is over in like, four pages. I think that Victoria got less booktime than James did, and he was only in the first book!
I sort of freaked out when Bella adked Jacob to kiss her in the end. That was one serious makeout scene! I think that the kiss between those two took up more pages than all of the ones with Edward put together from the first two. But it was cool. Romantic. Even though it was with the wrong guy.
I'd have to say that my favorite part of the book was the scene in the tent when Jacob is snuggled up with Bella in the sleeping bag. I found that rather awkwardly amusing it its own way. You could totally tell how much Jacob was enjoying totally pissing Edward off. It was great.
I did get pretty mad at one of my friends when she read it. She said that she thought Edward was being a controlling prick and that he needed to die to clear the way for Jacob. I did get a little annoyed with Edward at one point, but I promise that I never wanted him to die.
Have you noticed how unbelievably corny these books can be at times? But how it totally WORKS? I think that Stephenie Meyer is the only author on the planed who could write books so cheesy and melodramatic and have the characters say the corny things that they do and actually pull it off. Sort of how like Ashley Tisdale is the only person in the world who could pull off wearing those gold pants that she has to wear in the beginning of High School Musical 2 (which SUCKED if you haven't seen it yet. Don't. It is a waste of time.)
IT IS OK TO READ AGAIN!!!!
So, I read a lot of other books besides Eclipse this summer. The best ones, the ones that I HIGHLY recommend to fans of love stories, are the Mediator series by Meg Cabot. If you go to the library and you can't find them, check under the name Jenny Carrol, because that is the name that she wrote them under. There are six books in the series. Don't make the same mistake I did and read Haunted first because it is the only one there under Meg Cabot and you see the other five and they are by Jenny Carrol and you think that it is totally just a coincidence and they are two different things. THEY ARE NOT!!!! Haunted is the FIFTH book! The first one is Shadowland, the second is Ninth Key, the third is Reunion, the fourth is Darkest Hour, the fifth (as I just said) is Haunted, and the sixth is Twilight (ha! see! Now you know that they must be good!) Don't freak out about how there are so many books in the series. They are really quick books to read. And you may find yourself loving the guy, Jesse, almost as much as you love Edward!!
I am going to stop talking now, and finish my summer book and movie reviews in my next post. Here is the
ECLIPSE QUOTE OF THE BOOK AS PICKED BY DANA
If you want to find it in the book, it is at the end of page 599 and the beginning of 600.

"He's like a drug for you, Bella." His voice was still gentle, not at all critical. "I see that you can't live without him now. It's too late. But I would have been healthier for you. Not a drug; I would have been the air, the sun."
The corner of my mouth turned up in a wistful halfsmile. "I used to think of you that way, you know. Like the sun. My personal sun. You balanced out the clouds nicely for me."
He sighed. "The clouds I can handle. But I can't fight with an eclipse."

And there it is. I am getting all teary just typing it!!!
