this was the only book in the series so far that dragged for me. i loved learning all about Rosalie n jasper more (cause duh i love a good lore dump) but GODDAMN jacob was fucking AWFUL in this book.
i mean aside from the outright grooming, MULTIPLE sexual assaults, and him just straight up not respecting bella's choices, Jacob is number 1 on my shit list. im not sure if that was Meyers's point (like jacob is obviously awful so Edward is the right choice) but she still has jacob and bella stay bestie so I'm really at a loss. granted, 2 things can be true at once and I still respect jacob for knowing what he wants and being a go-getter but like, c'mon man
besides that, this book was a whole lotta nothing for over half the book. there was the looming threat of whoever could be raising these new vampires but it was just lore and bella and Edward and jacob like bickering the whole time.
2.75 cause again jacob SUCKED in this book and nothing happened n when things did happen, it was resolved in like 2 chapters. idk if this is a hot take but i would argue that this is the weakest of the twilight books because i couldn't even remember what happened in the movie so I really was experiencing this plot for the first time

quotes from eclipse that made me cackle
- “I wondered if it wasn’t a little foolish to sit around, weak and tasty, waiting for the next disaster.”
- His eyes narrowed slightly. “But I am a werewolf,” he said unwillingly. “And he is a vampire,” he added with obvious revulsion. “And I am a Virgo!” I shouted, exasperated.
- “Is it really so impossible to wear clothes, Jacob?”
- Jasper becoming a major in the confederate army at 17 years of age đź’€
- Edward reading the wolf pack’s hive mind and learning about the cheating scandals in the tribe
- “I can be noble, Bella. I’m not going to make you choose between us. Just be happy, and you can have whatever part of me you want, or none at all, if that’s better.” SO EDWARD IS DEFINITELY OPEN TO POLYAMORY HERE RIGHT??
- Bella making out with Jacob and then immediately trying to fuck Edward to get rid of her angst omg

What did I just read? As a teen, I was a fan of all the twilight books... As a adult, this was a torture to re read... Frist there is nothing going on in this book except the Bella monologue of toxic relationships. Why did we fantasize Jacob as teen who is legit sexually assaulting Bella and forcing himself of her? And... Charlie approved is daughter to be assaulted?!? What is this book? Seriously...

marinapalladinetti's review against another edition
Jacob literally commits sexual assault against Bella by kissing her. She’s fighting him and trying to push him away, and Bella’s father literally tells him later when they get home... “good job.”
No one acknowledges the kiss/make-out that's forced onto her as a form of assault in this book. The author turns it into a love triangle, and ends the conversation with the two guys “fighting” for her… when she was literally just assaulted… Not even Edward is taking the fact that she was forced into a kiss, and couldn’t move, and just the way it was written was so detailed. I thought she was going to get raped the way Jacob was holding her, forcing her, and then afterward saying that she "wanted it." Horrible. It made me sick just now.
I don't think I'm going to finish these books because of how much that bothered me.
