Does anyone else think that new moon is a kind of pointless book? (i still luv it but.....) In the start Edward and Bella are together and in the end they are together,all that really changes is bella finds out about the wolves.

I know what tu mean, I thought the same thing for a while but I think that there needed to be a book about just Bella and Jacob so that tu could see there relationship develop. In Twilight they don't really know each other that well and the chemistry isn't really there. so They couldn't have really skipped straight to Eclipse because when tu see how much they care about Each other it wouldn't really make sense if there wasn't New Moon. Hope I could help :)

New Moon isn't pointless because, when tu think about, everything that happened was inevitable.
Edward was always going to leave her at some point because someone would loose control. If it didn't happen then, it would eventually. It's just a given.
Bella and Edward wouldn't be so sure and absolute about their amor o the other's amor if they hadn't had to live that time separated. Edward would always be his pessimistic self, thinking that he was no good for Bella and that she would be better off without him which is proven to be wrong in New Moon.
Everything that happened in the last two libros couldn't have happened if the events of New Moon didn't occur.
And besides, even if it did had no point, it's still my segundo favourite of the series :)

Let me just get this straight before I begin - the más libros in the Twilight series the better, and I am very glad for the book. más Edward and Bella. No, screw Bella - más Edward. Even if it is just a small amount.

But I understand where tu are coming from, about nothing really happening apart from her finding out about the werewolves.

I think when Stephanie Meyer decided to give up on Forever Dawn and make the series out into a few más books, she realized that it had to happen. It was always deep rooted in Edwards... personality, to have the guilt at putting her in danger over come him and he would leave her. She had to get it out of the way, and I think they went through a lot together and came out stronger.

But you're right - they sort of went in a circle.

I agree with all the respuestas above!

Sakurr:movies gonna suck, but the libros goooooooooooooooooood.
Evelys:Idiot sakurr..any way i like new moon one of my favs libros and it was NOT pointless....losers

NOOOOO!!! New Moon is about Jacob & Bella! Just because we don´t have Edward all the freakin time doesn´t mean it´s pointless!

Not at all. It develops Bella and Jacob's friendship, and proved what life is like when Edward and Bella are apart. I think it is a crucial part of the story.

Well, a couple of times in Eclipse Bella says that now she knows that she can't live without Edward... And this knowledge came from New Moon...

“Tell me the worst part for you,” Jacob whispered.
“I think that might be a bad idea.”
“Please.”
“I think it will hurt.”
“Please.”
How could I deny him anything at this point?
“The worst part...” I hesitated, and then let words spill out in a flood of truth. “The worst part is that I saw the whole thing — our whole life. And I want it bad, Jake, I want it all. I want to stay right here and never move. I want to amor tu and make tu happy. And I can’t, and it’s killing me. It’s like Sam and Emily, Jake — I never had a choice. I always knew nothing would change. Maybe that’s why I was fighting against tu so hard.” (Eclipse, chapter 26)


I think this is a good example that New Moon is important, because is not for New Moon, it would be much más harder for Bella to choose between Edward and Jacob...

it's not pointless

it's showin the bond between Bella and Jacob without it Eclipse wouldn't make sense of how all of a sudden she luvs him

i totally agree i like (no duh), it's just a tad bit, PIONTLESS!

i think that the book is needed because tu get to understand bella and jacob's relationship más and that how edward feels about bella and their relationship

i luv NM.it is all about bella and jake....i luv it

IT IS SO NOT POINTLESS!IF EDWARD NEVER LEFT BELLA , HER JACOB WOULD NEVER OF BECAME CLOSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THERE ARE SO MANY NON-POINLESS THINGS IN NEW MOON!( i hope im not being rude

it was rather boring that I admit cause the best thing about the whole Twilight saga - beside Bella & Edward, are the Cullens and there was very little of them there. and I coulndt care less about the wolves

to me, the purpose of NM was for Edward and Bella to realize how much the other actually loves them. the rest I would have happily live without
