About this deal

The first time as for many I had to wait for each book to come out...waiting to see what Bella would do and hoping that she would choose Jacob (yes I was team Jacob, who wouldn't want a warm wolf to cuddle with).... Conceptually the problem for me with this novel is two-fold. First, that someone has a secret and Bella has to use her wits to figure it out herself (sort of like Book 1 but with Jacob instead of Edward). It After Nessie is born, it seems like Bella and Edward are too busy with, uhm, recreational activities to take care of her. So I guess being a nanny is the sole point of Rosalie's character (other than to be one more person that is jealous of special snowflake Bella and to be a mate for an irresistible Cullen.) They have absolutely nothing in common and the only thing they do together is him watching her sleep, look at each other. kiss and hug, and… well… that’s about it? They don’t even have nice conversations. And he playing with her hair when she’s on the phone and trying not to overreact every time she does something against his will is not something I consider relationship goals. i did enjoy the initial descriptions of what it first felt like to BE a vampire. who hasn't secretly desired to know that power and freedom?

Twilight Collection by Meyer, Set - AbeBooks

And after finishing the 2nd book I can say I enjoyed this book too. There were some choices of words that were unnecessarily complicated. There is no use to write a Y/A book and then throw in like 5 words that no one barely uses anymore that just seems out of place. And no I am not talking about the Cullens ”old vocabulary”, this is just randomly in the book – as Bellas narrative. It doesn't occur in the other books either. I had a YA Literature professor who reffered to some books as "potato chip books". Meaning that, they taste really good, you cant put them away, and you always hunger for more. But once you have finished the "chip bag" so to speak, you didnt really get any nutrients out of it. This time there was no waiting and I the outcome....but it was like reading them all new again...I could not stop... The books get progressively better in quality from 1-4. The first two generally drive me insane and the last two I like better, the writing does improve as well, but it isn't even as good as Rowling. I think she's better than Paolini's first book or two, but his writing improved as well. Unfortunately the series ends feeling rather unfinished, kind of as if Rowling had ended HP on the 5th or 6th book and Meyer's is being a bit of a jerk about not finishing the rewrite of the first book ala Edward POV because it was leaked. All her diehard fans are chomping at the bit to buy it and she's whining about it being leaked! But I digress.

Includes Theatrical and Extended Versions of the film and the extended version has 8 minutes of footage not seen in theaters Book 2: New Moon (The Twilight Saga, Book 2) by Stephenie Meyer. My least favorite of the 4 books. I felt like Bella was slow to come to conclusions I'd come to early on in the book. It was a bit frustrating to wait out. If this book disappoints, hang in there, the 4th is by far the best. 3 Stars The Twilight Saga: The Complete Collection – 15th Anniversary will be available on National HD, Blu-ray, and DVD on Oct. 17, 2023. Anyway, Jacob and Bella have a history of DOING stuff together. Of talking. Of being actual friends that aren’t based on unnatural attraction. He doesn’t treat her like something mindless that can’t handle the truth. I’m not saying that Bella SHOULD be with him though, it’s a free world and no one can change who they love the most. But I can’t justify Edwards's actions and words in this book. I simply can’t see this as real long-lasting love. Like, imagine Edward not being a vampire and Bella can’t just be intoxicated by his smell, or see the pretty skin in the sunshine, or feel the static-thing that happens when a vampire touches a human, or have to deal with his overaggressiveness and overprotectiveness. Would there be any love left for her when all of that is gone and there is no more mystery left neither of eternal life or vampires who have special powers and beauty? He’d just be a normal toxic human boyfriend.

And the fact that she becomes a zombie for several months and then ”wakes up” when she gets into trouble is understandable. I am no therapist though but I do understand what she is going through and why she acts the way she does. Thats how I felt about this series. Its crazy addicting, and I loved it. Its one of the first series of books I ever completed. I read each one of them in a day or two. However, I’ve seen people say that New Moon is overdramatic and problematic because of the way she responds to his leaving. But I disagree and I want to talk about it.The Twilight Forever collection includes all of the bonus features that were included on the previously released Blu-rays of the individual films, as well as over two hours of brand new extras created exclusively for this set:

Anyways, long story short, I got bullied for liking the books and therefore stopped reading them – when the saga got too popular I didn’t want to jump on the bandwagon again because I had already convinced myself that I hated the books. It also didn’t help that the series/author got a really bad reputation. He seems determined to push her away - until, that is, he saves her life from an out of control car. Bella will soon discover that there is a very good reason for Edward's coldness. He, and his family, are vampires - and he knows how dangerous it is for others to get too close. New Moon. Edward's vampire family puts Bella in danger so he decides to leave. Bella is befriended by Jacob who it turns out is a werewolf - the sworn enemy of vampires.An official description of the collectible set reads, "Celebrate the 15th anniversary of the first Twilight film and experience Bella and Edward’s epic love story, the dangerous feud between vampires and werewolves, and more unforgettable moments in the entire 5-film collection of Twilight: The Complete Saga. This special anniversary collection comes with four art cards and seven pieces of interchangeable cover art. Includes Twilight, The Twilight Saga: New Moon, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn—Part 1, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn—Part 2, and over twelve hours of special features." Several Bonus Features Are Included The Twilight Saga: Breaking Character is a blooper reel of sorts, covering most of the movies and including outtakes from cast interviews (including one with Robert Pattinson and Stewart in which she chides him repeatedly for flubbing his introduction), and other in-between-scene footage. There haven’t been many outtakes of the films made available, so this 8-minutes of never-before-seen behind-the-scenes footage might quench a very specific thirst. It’s also kind of adorable.
