Title: Eclipse
This is the second time I've read this book. But it's been 3 years so... I hardly remember it. It is so much better than the movies. In the first little part Its Bella and Charlie. I like Charlie better in the movies. I guess I don't like him because he is team Jacob. I mean really. Bella is like totally grounded from seeing Edward. But he un-grounds her, but under the condition that she visits Jacob. So I still don't like him. I also really don't like Bella all that much. What does Edward see in her? I mean, she's so selfish! She thinks "Oh I'm hurting Jake by not loving him" Who cares if she hurts Jake!!! He's not her boyfriend is he? No! Edward is her boyfriend but sadly she hurts him too by obsessing over Jacob so much! Good Lord! I can get a bit worked up about these kinda things. It just makes me mad. Did I mention that Eclipse is my second to least favorite book in the series. It has the second to MOST amount of Jacob in it so... yeah.

Pinch. Edward Pinch. How I despise him. He came up with a decent plan. After he killed Verminion(one of the four Lords of the Nether) he came up with a plan to bring the Guardian( a being whose aura cripples monsters, but he will die if touched by a human)to the monsters' lair and cripple them. They will kill them while they are defenseless. But while they are there there is one fatal mistake,
SPOILER ALERT, SPOILER ALERT, SPOILER ALERT, SPOILER ALERT
the Director doesn't want Pinch's plan to succeed. Hes jealous of his power. So the Director goes and hugs the Guardian until he dies, and the monsters kill many people. Then the Director blames it on Pinch and his friends.
To me, the point of this part of the book is to show a message; man is corrupt. How good could triumph in the end, but somebody who is jealous, somebody who wants the glory for themselves, makes evil win.
I'm guessing things are going to go horribly wrong. I think that humankind might be wiped out because of this stupid jealous man.

I like this book. Its my writing style. Katniss just seems confused and tortured. And she has reason for it. I mean, does she love Peeta? That's what I don't get. Or does she love Gale? Or does she not love either? Or both? Or is it like an Edward/Jacob thing? Cause if it is I am totally Team Peeta. Gale just kind of annoys me. Even though Peeta makes things up about stuff, and is traitorous I still like him more. Gale kinda pushes things on Katniss, while Peeta has charm. And even though Gale and Katniss have always been friends, I think Katniss and Peeta have been through a lot more together. Now, let's talk about Haymitch. Good lord, I can not stand him.He's so dumb.I hate most of the characters in this book. Why can't everyone go away, and let Katniss fall in love naturally, and with the guy she really loves. And then sometimes Katniss annoys me. She's a bit pessimistic. And I understand why, but still sometimes I just wanna tell her to shut up and live with it. But, in all of this, do you know what character that never bothers me? Peeta. I love Peeta. And the thing is I'm not 100 percent sure why I like him so much. I guess its one of those things where you cant really put your finger on it.

Okay this is the third post I've made. I'm so bad with computery stuff that I accidently deleted my other posts but they are still there thers just no text in the body. So hey. This is my first blog, and all though I made it for school I'll probably use it for other reasons too. like maybe one day I'll be ticked off at something and vent about it on here. Who knows, the possibilities are endless. So welcome all to... Amber's blog.
