 * Good sections to read aloud:**

The main characters in this second book are still Bella, Edward and Jacob. However, Edward disappears for quite some time and makes a person really not love him quite as much! Bella goes through some major rough times while Edward isn’t around, so she turns to Jacob and they become fast friends. She even decides to take on some new personality traits, with one being a daredevil! She gets Jake to fix up some motorcycles for them to ride and even jumps off of a cliff! Nothing can take away the pain inside of her though that she feels since Edward has left. How can she continue to even exist without him? If it was up to Jacob, there would be no problem.
