Other than the conversion issue, the lengthy though easily-read Eclipse does not stray too far from the issues involved in the lives of many teens, parental divorce, trying to choose the right boyfriend and the right college, and possible marriage plans.
And, of course, the most important part, fear of her upcoming conversion in becoming a vampire, “the conversion that would make me forever a prisoner to my own thirst,” and her marriage to Edward so that she could spend eternity with him. Etched into everyone’s minds because of the popularity of the movies of the same name, to many, as a visual reference, Bella will always be teenager Kristen Stewart, as she was in my mind as I joined her in Eclipse in her difficulties of dealing with her father Charlie and her mother Renee, applying for college, going out with Edward (with whom she’s reconciled), and longing to help Jacob in his pain at the former withdrawal of her friendship. Almost as long as Margaret Mitchell’s Gone With The Wind (which was a writing phenomena in its own time), Eclipse, the third novel in the Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer, once again depends on its sharply drawn characters, especially those of Bella, Edward and Jacob.
