Journal Entry 1 by rotewoelfin from Stuttgart, Baden-Württemberg Germany on Monday, December 8, 2008
Second book of the series. Will travel as ring as well as the others :)

Uhh.. I liked this one as well as the first book or even more. Take some handkerchiefs in reacheable distance at the beginning of the book *g*

SPOILER start (weiße Schrift - also markieren *g*)

At the beginning I thought I maybe won't like the book because it was very much about the mourning of Bella. But as the relationship with Jake got more intense and finally got clear what he is - I liked the idea very much that there are other kind of mystic folks in this world. And at the moment Alice is back, the story gets so much speed that I nearly couldn't give the book out of my hands.

!SPOILER end

So I'm looking forward to read the third one as well - but I think I have to read one or two rings first - and also I'm afraid of finishing the books to fast :D

Vielen Dank fürs Schicken! Habe das Buch tatsächlich gestern gelesen. Hat mir gefallen. Jetzt frage ich nach der nächsten Adresse und dann schreibe ich auch noch ein bisschen mehr.

Hat mir gut gefallen! Normalerweise schaue ich mir das Buch nochmal an, wenn ich den Eintrag schreibe, aber jetzt ist es schon auf der Post auf dem Weg zu KillerPueppi. Jetzt würde ich natürlich gerne den nächsten Band lesen, ist aber vielleicht besser, wenn ich damit noch ein bisschen warte. Sonst komme ich garnicht mehr dazu, was für meine Arbeit zu tun... Vielen Dank, dass ich so spontan mitlesen durfte!

Journal Entry 9 by Qantaqa from Dachau, Bayern Germany on Saturday, January 31, 2009
Arrived safely together with its predecessor. I'm really looking forward to reading it, it might take a little while, though!

Journal Entry 10 by Qantaqa from Dachau, Bayern Germany on Sunday, February 22, 2009
After finishing the first book, I was actually quite reluctant to start this one, because my hopes weren't too high - could this book really be interesting at all? Did I really want to read about Edward and Bella's daily life and all their vampire relations?
So, I was very pleasantly surprised by what happens after about 70 pages or so and really enjoyed reading the next few hundred pages. But I have to say: I didn't like the ending AT ALL! The book got worse from the moment Bella starts on her journey and the last few pages were very very very tacky.
Nonetheless, I'm afraid I'm hooked and want to find out how the story continues. I can't wait to read the 3rd book!

Journal Entry 11 by Qantaqa from Dachau, Bayern Germany on Sunday, February 22, 2009
I've already contacted -aoirghe- asking whether she wants to finish the first book before I send her this one and am waiting for her reply.

EDIT 03/03: Bella and Edward are now on their way to -aoirghe- - enjoy!

Journal Entry 12 by -aoirghe- from Bonn, Nordrhein-Westfalen Germany on Wednesday, March 11, 2009
The book has arrived safely here. Unfortunately Book I ist still on its way and I'd like to read the books "in order", so "New Moon" will have to wait until Book I has arrived and is read.

Thank you for sending the book and thanks for including me in the ring.

Journal Entry 13 by -aoirghe- from Bonn, Nordrhein-Westfalen Germany on Friday, April 3, 2009
I'm through! I liked the book, more than the beginning of the series, but... I was so very bored by Bella's mourning! She was such a teenage drama queen in her loss, phew. And this constant "whooshing" - I couldn't believe it.

I liked Jacob and his development a lot - I'm looking forward to reading more about him and his new kind of relationship to Bella.

Thanks again for the ring and the book will travel on asap!

The book arrived today - thanks a lot! :-)

May 11, 2009:
I enjoyed this book as much as the first, maybe even more. Jacob is a wonderful character; I like him more than Edward. So is Alice...
Bella, however, appears as egoistic as in the first volume. She seems to use her friends, especially Jacob, for her own well-being only, and spends little (too little) thoughts on their well-being.

Anyway - I look forward to the remaining volumes. :-)

Journal Entry 17 by DEESSE from Erstein, Alsace France on Tuesday, May 19, 2009
Found the book today safe and sound in my letterbox at school. Thanks, DA-Cameron for sending it on, and thanks rotewoelfin for the ring!

Unfortunately there are two more rings waiting before I get to this, but I'll hurry, as I'd love to know how the story continues...

Journal Entry 18 by DEESSE from Erstein, Alsace France on Thursday, August 13, 2009
I quite enjoyed this book, maybe even more than the first one. Well, the beginning was a bit far-fetched, the reason (given) why the Cullens had to leave...
I liked the description of the friendship best, how Bella got to know (and love - in a "brotherly way") Jacob - unfortunately he wanted more than just "brotherly love".
The motorcycling-lessons sounded like fun!

The events in Italy were quite "interesting", too - but then, back in Forks, I didn't like the way things turned out - of course, there's the obvious kind of "jealousy", which can be already quite a dilemma for a girl; on top of this the two "candidates" belong to two mythical races who traditionally are enemies...

I'm just sorry for Jacob, because I quite like his character - reminded me a bit of the werewolf in Stephen King's "The Talisman" (even though it was a complete different type...) In fact he's the real tragic figure - why can't he be a "normal human"? That would make everything a lot easier!

Well, I'd like to know how the story continues and am looking forward to reading volumes 3 and 4. Thanks everybody for sending it on and thank you, rotewoelfin, for this ring.

Bluecat07 doesn't want to read this book any more, so I've PMd risibisi for her address.

Edit 18.08.09:
Risibisi wants to be skipped as she has too much to read at the moment.

Das Buch war im Briefkasten, als ich heute aus dem Osterurlaub zurück kam.

Danke!

Journal Entry 23 by olagorie from Stuttgart, Baden-Württemberg Germany on Wednesday, May 5, 2010
This is just sooo unfair *sigh* The book is already finished and I am yearning for more.

Next part, please :-D

I confess, I was a bid scared about reading the second part. although I like the film New Moon, it was so INCREDIBLY depressing, I was really anxious about having to read this.

But in a way, I liked the novel even better than the film. I especially liked the Jakob part.

It is not as exciting, they invented some stuff obviously for the film, dragging a bit sometimes, but still I spent the last few hours entranced, not able to stop reading. I'll be dead tired tomorrow morning at work.

Thanks a lot for sharing this novel with me.

I already got fine-arts adress from last time, so the book will travel soon.

Arrived today, thanks! I'll just finish my current book and then start with this one. I'm already looking forward to it!

Journal Entry 26 by fine-art at Neckargemünd, Baden-Württemberg Germany on Sunday, June 6, 2010
I like this book a lot, although to be honest not quite as much as "Twilight". It's a bit more of a classical vampire story, especially starting from the point when she travels to Italy. I certainly dislike that part of the book, although I have to admit that it's rather thrilling.
Much more interesting to me is the relationship part. Bella's mourning is really convincing and well described. I also like Jacob a lot - he is such a sympathetic character and his development gives an interesting turn to the story.

Again, the book suffers from a few inconsistencies. Just as an example: In part one I got the impression that Bella can't even walk straight without stumbling, so I was quite surprised to find her hiking in the woods on her own (not to mention her other activities...). But funny enough, those flaws don't really annoy me. The book still appeals to me - and I don't really know why :-) And yes: I'm craving for more!
