The Twilight Saga – New Moon

In New Moon, the second film in the Twilight Saga, Edward, the good vampire, stays away from Bella for her own good. Depressed, she cries on Jacob’s shoulder

New Moon was released in Brazil on November 20^th. In this second film in the Twilight Saga, Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) turns 18. At her party there is an accident and she cuts her hand. Even the good vampires feel the pull of the blood. Later, Edward (Robert Pattinson) fears even more for his loved one’s safety. Edward and his family decide to move out of town. For Edward this is to protect Bella’s life, but she is depressed by his absence. Bella is not, however, totally alone. She has a great friend called Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner). This friendship blossoms over time, but there is a problem: Jacob falls in love with her. Jacob is a werewolf.  And, of course, werewolves are long-time enemies of vampires....

Stephenie has written 4 books in the series
