I think that it is probably the worst book in the entire series but others might think differently. In this book, Bella almost gets attacked by Jasper when she gets a papercut at her birthday party. Edward being the overprotective person he is, decides that he and his family are too dangerous for Bella so he decides to leave her. When Edward leaves Bella, she becomes really depressed and stops being the usual happy and cheerful self she is.

When Bella spends more time with her friends, she finds that she is missing out on a lot. Soon, Bella starts hanging out with Jacob Black and she is beggining to cheer up and has stopped being so depressed. By the way, Jacob is my all time favourite character in both movies and books.:] When Jacob starts neglecting her, Bella starts losing it. Whenever Bella asks to talk to Jacob he always brushes her away. He keeps telling her that he cannot tell her and that she has to figure it out herself. When Jacob gives Bella a hint, she finally figures out that he is a werewolf along with all his other friends. When Laurent who was part of James's old covenant comes back for Bella, Jacob and the werewolves fight back and kill Laurent. When Alice(she can see the future) sees Bella jump off a cliff, she rushes back to Forks to check on her but Edward already thinks that Bella is dead and has decided that he wants to die too. The movie for this book is pretty new and I did not really like it but the book is ok. I highly recommend this book, especially to girls if you enjoy romance. In my opinion, Edward is evil and mean and Jacob is like a life saviour and he is awesome.:] This is a must read book.
Book reviews, yes, but so much more as well!

This is the second book in the Twilight series.

Twilight

This is the first book of my favourite series in the entire world. This book is written by Stephenie Meyer and is also a movie although the book is so much better than the movie. This is about a girl named Bella Swan who moved to Forks from Pheonix and is trying to fit into school and adpat. At school, she becomes popular at once as Forks is a small town and everyone knows that Bella is Chief Swan's daughter. Everyone is welcoming Bella at her new school except the Cullens. They are very quiet and keep to themselves, especially Edward. Edward seemed to hate Bella the moment she got to this school and she is very worried about it. After biology where Bella has to sit next to Edward, Edward leaves for a few days. Bella starts to get worried about what she did to him. After a few weeks or so, he comes back and is starting to talk to her. Edward is beggining to open up slightly towards Bella. The other guys like Mike, Eric and Tyler have begun to ask Bella out but she turns them down. When Bella is in Port Angeles and was saved by Edward from a group of men, she begins to find out what he really is. Edward is actually a vampire but Bella is not bothered by this fact. Edward starts getting closer and closer to Bella and she even meets his family. One day, Edward invites Bella to watch his family of vampires play baseball. When they are joined by another coven who drink human blood(the Cullens drink animal blood so as not to harm the humans), Edward tries to protect Bella from them. When he finds out that one of them, James is a tracker, he tried to bring Bella away. I know you guys have probably already wacthed the movie, but believe me. The book is so much better and I highly recommend it. This is probably one of the BEST books i have read. EVER.
Eldest
This is the second book in the Eragon series.
This book is even more complicated than the last one and it took me a long time to finish reading it. This book is also written by Christopher Paolini and it is as good as the last one. Eragon had defeated the Shade but some Urgals survived and killed Ajihad. The Varden was then left without a king and Nasuada, the princess had to take over of course. This book gets very confusing as sometimes it is told by Eragon or by Roran(Eragon's cousin) or Nasuada. When Eragon is telling the story, he is talking about the training he underwent with the elves and how Saphira had similar training. When Roran was telling the story, he was trying to help the villagers and trying to send them somewhere safe so that the Empire would not be able to catch them and make them slaves. When Nasuada was telling the story she is trying to solve all the problems and how she thinks that there is going to be a war soon between the Varden and the Empire. She is right of course but a lot of things have happened between the point she sent Eragon to undergo training and the point when war is declared. Eragon is much stronger and so is Saphira but there is a new Rider in the midst and although he is a younger Rider, he has more power and he learned from the king. In this book, Eragon finds out about his history. Who his father was, what reputation he had and who his brother was. This book explains a lot of questions in the first book and is sort of like an answer. It is still difficult to understand and is confusing as it jumps from one narrator to the next. It is still a good book and though and I still recommend it. Still does not beat twilight though...

Eragon
Eragon is the first book in the series and it is written by Christopher Paolini.
I think that it is a very difficult book to understand but once you know what is going on, it is very interesting. It is about this boy named Eragon who found a dragon egg and it hatched for him. He named the dragon Saphira but the king is chasing after him and the dragon. Eragon has to run away from the village but he is followed by Brom whom he thought was the village storyteller but in fact works for the Varden. Brom teaches Eragon everything he knows about swordmanship and magic and tried to teach Eragon as much as he knows. When Brom is killed, Eragon is left to look for the Varden with Saphira and Murtaugh. When he arrives at the Varden he is welcomed by some and unwelcomed by some. He meets Ajihad the leader of the Varden and is then taken under the Varden. Everyone stays clear of Eragon and Saphira as they are afraid of them. Soon there is a battle between the Varden and the Urgals. A lot happens during the fight but you have to read the book to find out who wins. This is a good book but it is not that great. Harry Potter, House of Night and Twilight series beat this series by a mile. I recommend this book to people who do not mind reading it a few times as it takes a while to understand the story. It has a very interesting storyline and plot but it is not the best I have read. So far, my favourite series is still the Twilight series.

This
is the fifth book in the House of Night series. I take back what I said about the fourth book being the best because this is by far the best book in the series. At this point, it is also the latest one but the sixth one is already out in America(-.-). This book is written by P.C and Kristin Cast. In this book, Zoey and her friends including Erik have escaped from Kalona and Neferet and are now hiding at the old epot with the other red fledgings and vampyres. It is not the best place to stay but it is safe as Kalona does not like the Eart and the underground. While under the depot, Erik asks to get back together with Zoey again and Zoey agrees so now Zoey has one boyfriend. Shortly after that, Zoey finds poems about Kalona and how they might help drive him away. But, Heath arrives soon and messes everything up. Apparently Kalona was looking for Zoey as he believed that she was his queen and all that. But he could not get underground to get her, so he made his half man half crow sons watch the depot entrance so that Zoey will be caught the moment she comes out. When Heath arrives, he persuades Zoey to go outside to talk but when they get outside, Kalona's sons attack Zoey but Heath manages to run back to the depot. When Darius, a vampyre looks at Zoey's wound which was very serious he said that he could not help until they were back at school and at the mean time, Zoey needed human blood. Heath had no choice but to give his blood to her and they imprinted... Again. That is boyfriend number two. When Darius tells everyone that the only way to heal Zoey is to go back to school, everyone decides to follow except Stevie Rae and Erik. While they are there, Zoey has to be careful that she is not attracted towards Kalona and persuaded to join the bad side. In the mean time, Zoey is trying to decipher the poems to drive Kalona away. Stark, is finally coming to his senses and is starting to talk to Zoey although her friends do not like it as they believe that Stark is on the bad side. I cannot tell you what happens in the end but I will tell you this, Zoey figured out what the poem is saying but I am not saying whether she is right or not. You have to read the book to find that out. This book is one of the best books i have read and it falls under my top ten. It is a must read but it is not the best book i have read.

Untamed

This is the fourth book in the House of Night series and I think it is the most interesting one so far. In this book, Zoey has exactly the same problems as before. Friend problems, best friend problems, teacher-trying-to-kill-her-all-the-time problems... But, she has no boyfriends. Well, not yet at least. When a new kid transfers into school and her ex-boyfriend Erik gone, Zoey is finding it very hard to cope. The new kid, Stark has a special gift and he only told Zoey about it. Zoey could understand how Stark felt as she had a special gift as well as she had an affinity for all five elements. Stark's gift was that he could never miss his target while shooting an arrow. After he explained to Zoey how he had accidentally killed his instructer, Stark's body started rejecting the change. Zoey then quickly told him about how fledgings do not completely die after they reject the Change and how Stark might be able to live again. After Stark died in her arms, Zoey has another problem. Erik Night, her ex-boyfriend who had changed into a full vampyre started taking over the drama class here at the House of Night. This makes everything very complicated with Erik still thinking that Zoey cheated on him(this is all in the fourth book chosen) and Zoey not really wanting to have more boyfriend issues. Aphrodite who has visions about the future, saw Zoey's grandmother in her dreams and she was holding a poem. When Zoey read the poem out to her grandmother, things all start to go wrong. The poem was about a fallen angel called Kalona and Zoey's grandmother believes that he is going to rise again and make the world go bad. I cannot tell you what happens in the end of course because that would ruin the whole story. I highly reccomend this book because it is really really really really really really really good... but it still cannot beat the twilight series. EVER
Chosen
This is the third book in the
House of Night series. It is written by P.C and Kristin Cast. It is about a young vampyre fledging who is very special as she has affinity for all five elements named Zoey. In this book, Zoey has found about the red fledgings and are trying to help them gain their humanity back. But Neferet is making that very difficult for her as she is always trying to find out what Zoey is up to. Other than major best friend issues and her mentor trying to kill her all the time, Zoey like any other girl has boyfriend issues as well. Zoey was juggling three guys and that can only be a recipie for disaster. When Zoey helps Stevie Rae get her humanity back, her friends find out that she was keeping it a secret from them except Aphrodite and Aphrodite was Zoey's arch enemy. So, now her friends are mad at her and the only person she can talk to is Aphrodite who is not much help. After all the stress and the problems... you just have to read the book and find out what happens. I highly recommend this book as it is excellent. But is will never never never EVER beat twilight.:)
