New Moon, Reading Journal #8
Bella decides to jump off a cliff so she can get an adrenalin rush so she can see Edward again. Alice predicts and tells Edward and he thinks she died. I think Edward will go to the Voltaire because I remember when he was telling Bella when a vampire doesn't want to live anymore they go to them and they can kill you because it's hard to kill a vampire. This story made me wonder why people go through so much for people they love it doesn't make much sense when you think about it most people do this they go through so much such as Romeo and Juliet they killed themselves because each other had died. My favorite character is Edward because i feel like we have more things in common because i would do anything for the people i love and that's exactly what Edwards doing. Edward only left Bella for her safety because he knew by staying that meant she was in danger of getting hurt by other vampires and possibly a family member. If someone i loved was in that situation i would probably do the exact same thing to Bella. I thought that the first book Twilight was a much better book than this one because i thought it was more on Edward and this one has more Bella and Jacob and I don't really care for him because he doesn't seem very nice and interesting. Edward is my favorite and will probably be for the rest of the book.

Lunky?
New Moon, Reading Journal #7
''Jacob’s furious voice was suddenly in my ear, hissing out a stream of profanities. I felt a vague disapproval. His new friends were clearly a bad influence.''Bella thinks Jacobs friends are the reason he has been acting so differently when in fact it's because Jacob himself is changing. Many people automatically think that when they change it's the people they hang out with when it can just be because the person is dissatisfied with his or her life and wants to change. Most people now a days like to change themselves because they are not happy with the way their life is going so they start acting different then usual and the ones closest to the person start to notices those changes such as Bella noticing that Jacob has not been acting the same. There are more things that change besides personalities such as technology and physical appearances. I think Bella wants to blame everyone for Jacob changing besides himself she would rather point fingers at the guys Jacob is hanging out with rather than Jacob!

New Moon, Reading Journal #6
One day Edward walked into class late as usual the only thing different was were he usual sat there was a pretty young girl sitting there, where his fiend Jesse usually sits he sat there. Then Edward looks at the new girl and make eye contact he then introduces himself to her and she does as well. Her name was Bella and she was very shy, then there teacher had told them all to open their books up and continue the question on page 123 with a person near you so Edward decided to have Bella for a partner but the only thing was she didn't understand any of it so he had to help her, after they finished Bella and Edward started talking about how amazing it would be if they had powers like what if Bella could run fast or go through walls suddenly Edward got quite and no one from the table notice him change except for Bella. After that the bell rang and Edward quickly got his stuff and ran out the door Bella tried to catch up to him to ask him why he acted like that but she couldn't keep up with him. She was wondering why he acted like that so she went to school the next day to ask but that day he never even came, she kept showing up and he did the opposite and one day the teacher had informed the class that he had dropped out and was doing independent studies.

Jacob is a beast
New Moon, Reading Journal #5
Jacob and Bella are having a fight because Jacob doesn't talk to Bella any more and he has changed a great deal from the way he he was before. Jacob now hangs out with Sam, and Bella thinks he's a bad influence on Jacob. I think the authors message was that when people change you can't stop them you kind of just let it happen and let life take it's course, like Jacob he changed and there was nothing Bella could do she had no choice but to let nature take it's course. I think Jacob will change and become Bella's friend again he might not be his friend right away but I'm sure he will one day. This story makes me wonder if my friends will ever change and I will ever be in Bella's situation. When I read that Jacob was being very disrespectful towards Bella when they went for a little walk in the forest it got me really mad I felt Bella's anger I just wanted to hit Jacob and leave him forever. I think the author does a fantastic job detailing the story because I can picture what she rights in my head and she speaks clear and direct and I like that a lot!

Laws Of Gravity
New Moon, Reading Journal #4
''I was like a lost moon—my planet destroyed in some cataclysmic, disaster-movie scenario of desolation—that continued, nevertheless, to circle in a tight little orbit around the empty space left behind, ignoring the laws of gravity.'' I believe Bella meant when she said this was that when you think all hope is lost you can keep going on with what your doing. Even though the moon which is her and everything around her is destroyed or gone like the way Edward is gone life still goes one and one you can't just sit down and give up you have to keep going and live life. I think that this connects to world because everyone will go through things that will turn your world up side down and you have to just let it going even if you lose something, it also connects to the book because Bella lost Edward and she acted if her world was done and then it came to her that you still have to live life and keep moving forward.

When Edward Was A Boy
New Moon, Reading Journal #3
When Edward was younger he was a very good child, he would come home and do all his homework and then go to his baseball practice. He tried to be the best that he could so his single mom could be proud of him. See Edward was the only child his mom had, his dad left him when he was a couple months and has no family but his mother. His mom worked like crazy and he practically raised himself. His mom worked hard to keep them off the streets. Edward would come home and do his homework everyday and then practice and some how go to the grocery store so his mom didn't have to go and then he would cook dinner. he was doing this all st the age of ten. He then got older and met some people he shouldn't have when he got mixed in with the wrong crowd it was hard to avoid. One day Edwards mom tells him that he needs to stop and do something that would be better for him in the future so he decided to join the air force and when he does he gets hurt and meets one of the nurses that was helping him, they end up falling in love but when he comes out he finds out that she is no where to be found so he goes off looking for her but to this day he still can't find her.

Miserable Bella
New Moon, Reading Journal #2
Edward left Bella because he thought he was putting her in too much danger. She was very depressed for the next couple of months so her dad told her she had to change or she would be sent to live with her mom so she decided to go to the movies with Jessica and notices that when she has an adrenalin rush she sees Edward and she does some crazy things. I believe that Bella will go looking for new adventures and will get hurt bad because she is not thinking this through and because she is very clumsy. This story makes me wonder that teenage girls will do anything for a guy and I think it's ridiculous! My favorite character has always been Edward I think he's a nice guy and he makes smart decisions he just never comes through with them but now he is and he is very respectful and I like him a lot. I didn't like how Bella is always depressed I don't feel like she has anything to offer the world let alone Edward. But i think she adds a good role in the book because in every book you should have one person you don't like.
