New Moon by Stephenie Meyer

After enjoying the first book I was surprised to find how slow and boring the second book was. After about 200 pages Bella had been dumped by her boyfriend, fallen of a motorbike and re-befriended Jacob. Don't ask me what happens after that, I gave up on it. There are a few lighter moments, such as "Who would want to ride here? It would be like taking a sixty-mile-per-hour bath.(page 112) That and a few of Bella's witty remarks start the book off in a promising enough fashion, but only too soon the pace slow to a crawl and leaves me glad I did not take up the offer of buying two books for a slightly reduced price. It may eventually get going but I was lost well before the end.
