Edward and Bella are the perfect couple. You know, the one that was so happy it made you want to gag. Everything is perfect for them, except Edward is a vampire and Bella's blood smells powerfully yummy. Beyond that though, despite best intentions, Edward's vampire family also is having a hard time with keeping their base instincts under control. Edward's protectiveness leads him to leave Bella for her own safety, and Bella falls apart.
Sequel to Twilight, Meyer lost none of her believability or characterization skill. The plot rambles a bit and probably could be condensed a little, but the New Moon was still, overall, a highly enjoyable read. Meyer's development of formerly minor characters was masterful.
Recommended to anyone who enjoyed Twilight. Appropriate for most school settings
