Rating: - Could have been worse...
The only redeeming feature of this book - which could have lost 200 pages of repetitive whining to no detriment, if not improvement - is the fact that Bella finally decides that she loves Jacob. Even if there is a qualifying 'too' in the mix. I'm dubiously giving #4 a bash, since in a fit of enthusiasm after 'Twilight' I bought them all, but I just don't think Meyer has the authorial skills to convince me that an animated marble statue is really worth all of this angst.
Honestly: am I the only one out there who finds Edward completely tedious? Not to mention self-obsessed, controlling and condescending.
Ah well, maybe #4 will surprise me...

Ok so if you're looking at buying Eclipse, there's not much chance you don't know all about the Twilight Saga. There's no need to convince you! If you enjoyed Twilight and New Moon, you're going to want this one.
Out of all of the books, this one has to be my favourite. This was the book that took me from vehemently Team Edward squealy fangirl-arama into the 'Oh, Jacob's actually really nice and perfect for Bella' confusion. And i cant be the only one. (Ok so i was still Team Edward after reading Eclipse, but it makes you stop and think!)
There's a lot more depth in this book than the first two, and it shakes up what you've thought all the way through Twilight and New Moon.
Rating: - Better
My favourite so far in the whole series is Twilight, and this definately comes second. New Moon was quite dull, but this book sort of made up for that. It was a bit dull in parts and quite disturbing in others, but it isn't that bad for the series.
Rating: - My favourite of the saga so far...
Eclipse is my favourite of the three so far. It has the most action, and the most struggle. Bella is still being stalked by a deadly vampire intent on revenge, and there are many people wanting to protect her. All of the Cullens, and the werewolf pack over at La Push. Most people would be flattered and relieved by this, but not Bella. She cares about these people so much that she is terrified of them getting hurt, especially on her account. But it doesn't seem to stop any of them. Edward loves Bella dearly and would rather die than see her hurt. Jacob Black feels the same. Bella is torn between the two men - she's desperately in love with Edward and can't see her life without him, but she is incredibly close to Jacob, and doesn't want to lose ... Read More:
Rating: - Probably the best one so far
This book seemed to have plot unlike the other two which made it a lot better. However, it did take forever for the characters to work out that they had to collaborate with the werewolves and it was pretty obvious that they'd have to do it at some point. What was confusing about this book (and New Moon) was whether or not Bella was in love with Jacob. It turns out that she does fall for him but that just made it more confusing and unnecessary for the plot.
