Eclipse, pg. 1-64

This book is the third book in the Twilight series. The book starts with the preface. In the preface, all Bella really says is that she has to make a choice.

The first chapter is called Ultimatum. It starts out with a note from Jacob. It says he misses her but can't change anything. Bella is sad and misses him.

Bella smells something funny and finds her father, Charlie trying to cook. She asks why he is cooking, and he responds by saying they need to talk. He says he wants Bella spending more time with Jacob. He says she will be ungrounded if she finds a balance between friends and Edward. She agrees. Then, Charlie gives her her mail. Bella finds out that she was accepted to University of Alaska Southeast. Then, Edward comes over. He brought more applications for college.  On the table, there was a newspaper. Edward notices the headline about gang killings. He says that it is a group of vampires. Then, Bella mentions that she wants to hang out with Jacob. Edward refuses.

The second chapter is Evasion. It starts out with Edward and Bella at school. She was very excited about her freedom. She plans to hang out with Angela to help her with her announcements. All of the sudden, Alice has a vision. When Bella tries to ask either Edward or Alice, both avoid the question.

Then, Bella and Edward come home. She checks here email and replies to her mom. Edward brings up her plane ticket certificates that will soon expire. She considers it. Then, they go into the dining room to work on homework. Edward tells Charlie about Bella's plane tickets. He gets mad when he finds out there are two tickets, one for Edward and one for Bella. Bella gets mad and says they are going out and leaves.

When she gets home, Charlie has he wants to talk. He says to use protection and be smart. Bella is disguised and says she's a virgin. Then Charlie says he wants her hanging out with Jacob more. She says she'll try. Then, she goes upstairs and decides that she will go visit Jacob. When she gets in her car,  Edward stops her. She gets mad but stays home.

The first chapter was super slow, but the second chapter reminded me how good the series is. I loved the second chapter. It's a fairly easy read.

  1. Hey, wonderful blog. Your logs are well written and thoughtful, and you have a nice variety of reading going on, it looks like. I'd love to see a little more reflection about some of the things you are summarizing here, perhaps, just to hear what you think.

    Very nice personal touch, too, I must say.
