New Moon . . .
. . . Ok, So I've read to about page 100 in New Moon and, its pretty good so far. I am a little sad that Edward doesn't have a very big role yet, and Bella's depressed attitude doesn't really lend itself to making the story very exciting, but I'm hoping the plot will pick-up soon, and I guess this lull in the action does give readers a chance to learn more about Bella's character. Anyway, I've just started the part where Bella is going with Jess, for the first time in months, to the movies. I must admit, I was really surprised when Bella didn't even know what movies were playing. I mean, I know she's sad, but you have to really seclude yourself from society to not even know one movie that would be in the theatre. She seems so sad and lost, as if she has no hope for life. I'm glad she has Charlie though, because even though I do want her to wait for Edward, she can't just throw away the rest of her life, even Edward wouldn't want her to. Charlie seems to be the reality in her fairy tail life. He really loves her and wants his old daughter back, not some robot that "doest do anything!" (Meyer). However, in Bella's defense, she really can't find anyone else like Edward. Not only because he was a Vampire, but because they "clicked" so well together and shared so many memories and secrets that helped make them the people they are today. And once Bella has this impossibly high standard like Edward, hardly anyone can make it.
