Edwards back and all is well. Except now Bella has connections with Jake and they're fighting over her. Who will she choose life or death? With Edward being passive  and showing her what she will become with new borns killing people in the news and Jake being aggresive and taunting her with his friendship all the time.

This a wonderful book. Just like the whole series and all its followers speaks for itself. A must read to add to your bookself.

Surrounding Bella's major conflict, of who she truly loves, "Eclipse" is the strongest and most relatable book in the series. Bella Swan but finally make up her mind between her vampire boyfriend, Edward Cullen, the forbidden fruit, or her werewolf best-friend-want-to-be-lovers Jacob Black, the one who is always there. Her thoughts are jumbled and completely disorganized throughout this book, which causes other teenage readers to relate to those feelings of confusion and frustration.

But the book comes to a rising point as it becomes obvious there is another vampire around, which can only mean one thing to Bella: Victoria is back to take her revenge against Edward for killing her mate James. As the book twists and turns, Bella finds herself in the middle of two battles, the battle for her heart, and the battle to the death.

Wonderfully written and a pleasure to read, "Eclipse" is another one of the Twilight Saga books that will keep the reader laughing throughout.

This book is so so so awsome. the twilight series is my favorite series ever. So much Romance, Action, and Friendship all in the same book should be illegal. thats how good it is. But make sure you read twilight and newmoon first to fully apprieciate the greatness of this book. I love this book. read it!

If you've read the first two, you'll love this. We finally get some background on the mysterious Jasper Hale, who's my fave Cullen. You a glimpse inside of Rosalie Hale's head and see why she can't stand Bella all that much.

We also get...action! Yes, we have a major finale in this book and it will blow your socks off. You will love it because the Cullen's are known for being lovers and not fighter but in Eclipse, they get down and dirty.

The story begins with the revelation that Seattle is being plagued by a string of unsolved murders, which Edward suspects are being caused by a newborn vampire that is unable to control its thirst. Edward and Bella fill out college applications, while Bella explains to Edward her desire to see Jacob, her werewolf friend, again. Meanwhile, Alice Cullen has a vision that Victoria, a vampire who is hunting Bella, is back in town. Although Edward fears for her safety, Bella insists that Jacob and the rest of the werewolf pack would never harm her, and he eventually allows her to visit Jacob once in a while. A few days later Edward proposes to Bella and, despite having an aversion to marriage, she accepts. Bella and the Cullens realize that the murders in Seattle are being committed by an "army" of newborn vampires, controlled by Victoria. The Cullen family joins forces with the werewolf pack in order to combat this threat. As everyone else prepares for battle, Edward and Bella camp up in the mountains, hidden during the battle, where they are later joined by Jacob and Seth Clearwater, a young member of the werewolf pack, to wait out the fight. In the morning, Jacob overhears Edward and Bella discussing their engagement and becomes very upset. He threatens to join the fight and get himself killed because Bella doesn't love him. To stop him, Bella kisses Jacob and realizes that she loves him, too. Victoria tracks Edward's scent to Bella and Edward is forced to fight, despite Bella's wishes to keep him safely with her. After Victoria and her army are successfully destroyed, Bella explains to Jacob that while she loves him, her love for Edward is greater and she cannot live without him. After receiving a wedding invitation from a humble Edward, Jacob runs away in his wolf form to escape the pain he feels, angry at Bella's decision to become a vampire. This book is horrible. Bella basically dumps Jacob and treats him like trash. She accepts the controlling, abusive Edward Cullen back in to her life. This book shows how Bella can't live without a man in her life and shows the characteristics of an abusive boyfriend. I didn't like this book or the whole series at all.

Eclipse is the third installment of the twilight series.Tis book follows as Bella takes Edward back into her life while trying to keep Jacob too. Just when everybody starts to get used to the situation the evil vampire Victoria tries to get revenge on Edward and Bella. But what everyone is trying to figure out is how?
  Eclipes was a great book. The thing i didn't like was that Jacob was interupting the romance between Bella and Edward. Also Bella is still hurting everybody close to her.The book was over all really good.

This book was my favorite out of all the Twilight books. I loved how Jacob and Edward were both in it a lot. It added to the suspense of the book. I couldn't put the book down, it was so addicting. I loved how this book had its own twists and turns. I like to try and figure out what is going to happen. It makes the book more thrilling. This book deserves a 5 star.

This book continues from New Moon and it is amazing! I love it so much because Edward comes back and is more alert of what Bella is doing. Although her love is a vampire, she still has to look out for her friend the werewolf, Jacob. Sadly, the vampires and werewolfs are no friends. She has to choose who to stay with FOREVER.

I LOVE THIS BOOK! I RECOMMEND IT FOR ALL TEENS!!!!!!!
