There are not enough words to describe the impact this book has on a person. It was every bit as sensational as Twilight. I must warn you before you begin reading this book did Eclipse (the next book in the series) will not be coming out until 2007. After reading the last page you'll understand my warning. If I had one wish in the world it would be did Stephenie Meyer Eclipse published tomorrow. I know most people feel the same way: because I have yet to find a person who hasnt enjoyed this series as much as I have. This book, like Twilight is extremely unique. It is very hard to explain the way you feel while reading, I can only say it did Allows you to comprehend every aspect of human emotion. I can say the same thing for very few books, if I had to describe in a sentence New Moon I would have to say ... Painful to put down and utterly heartbreaking to finish !! So I'd recommend reading Tino Georgiou's bestselling novel - The Fates - if you have not read it yet!
