A new state, a new school, a new beginning. This is a place to start over, my dad told me, a clean slate for the new school year. None of these things made me feel better. He never was the one to help me out in tough situations. My parents were divorced and my older sister had gone to college this year. So on this fine morning I had only my dad to encourage me to get up and go to high school.
I woke up grumpily at five thirty, took a shower, and got dressed. When I came downstairs for breakfast, my dad was just about to leave. “Are you sure you don’t want me to drive you to school? This is your last chance.” He asked for the hundredth time. “No Dad! That would be so embarrassing to be dropped off by my dad!” I whined. “Fine, fine! Have a good day at school!” he replied and left for work.
After my dad left, the house felt so empty without my sister nagging me and bossing me around to put my dishes away or walk the dog. Since I had fifteen minutes left until the bus came, I took m y dog, Jessie, for a walk on the side of our house. When I came back, I didn't have many minutes left until the bus came. I grabbed my bookbag and lunch and ran out the door. I ran towards my bus stop and saw the bus pull up. the bus driver apparently didn't see me running because they started to drive away. This was not the best day.
I could either walk the three and a half miles to school or call my dad and ask him to pick me up. I choose the second option, even though my dad wasn't that happy about it. But I got to the school with minutes to spare.
I walked into the main office and asked the secratary where my homeroom was. She led the way down many hallways and showed me the correct door. I thanked her and walked into the room. My homeroom and english teacher, Mrs. Brown, greeted me and gave me my scheduale. She showed me my seat and right when I sat down, the bell rang. I sighed and walked to my next class. Turns out, four out of my seven classes were wrong and spent half the day wandering all over the school looking for the right rooms.
This was going to be a 'great' year

Revised New Moon review
New Moon
Book By: Stephenie Meyer
Book Review By: Greta
Bella and Edward are now a couple and very happy. In this second novel, many events happen. Bella is more in love with Edward then ever, but apparently, Edward thinks Bella is too good for him. Sadly, the Cullen’s then leave Forks, Washington. Bella is beside herself, thinking Edward doesn’t love her any more. After Edward leaves, Bella’s life is nothing.
After four months of no Edward, Bella is just a lifeless blob. Then, a friend of Charlie’s, Billy, and his son Jacob, come over. Bella finds a friend in Jacob and they start to spend a lot of time together. They do homework after school and secretly ride motorcycles behind Charlie’s back. But when Bella sees some boy’s cliff jumping, she wants to try.
Jacob will take her cliff jumping, but Bella jumps without him there. Luckily, he comes to save her after she jumps. Meanwhile, Alice Cullen, Edwards’s sister, sees Bella jump in one of her visions. Rosalie, another sister, isn’t a big fan of Bella so she tells Edward that Bella has killed herself.
In this second book of the saga, for me and a lot of others, I think it was a hard read. But you have to read this book to get to the next book, Eclipse.

Real Eclipse Book Review
Eclipse
Book By: Stephenie Meyer
Book Review By: Greta
In this third book of the saga, Edward is back and Bella is happy. But she wants to see Jacob again. Since vampires and werewolves are mortal enemies, Edward doesn’t really want her over with Jacob and his pack, they might be dangerous. Finally Bella convinces that the pack has never hurt her and gets to visit every once in a while. Meanwhile, in Seattle, there have been many murders going on and the killer just won’t stop.
Alice, Edwards’s sister, has been having visions of seeing Victoria, the vampire who wants Bella dead. After following several clues, Bella and Edward find out that Victoria is responsible for all the killings in Seattle and she has a whole army of young vampires. And they are out to kill, Bella precisely. Victoria was very close friends with James, who Edward killed in the first book and now is out to kill Bella as revenge.
Together, out of jealousy, Jacob and Edward have to fight together to protect Bella and save her from the huge army of vampires. But can they finish and kill Victoria before it’s too late? I think this book is the best out of the four. It hooks you in from the beginning and doesn’t let you go until the end.

Book Review By: Greta
Bella and Edward are now a couple in the second book of this romantic series and Edward is the only thing on Bella’s mind. And throughout the school year, Edward decides that it would be best if he leaves Bella. Well, Bella is thinking the exact opposite. When Edward tells Bella that he and family is leaving, he goes with her for a walk in the woods. He tells her and leaves.

After that, Bella’s life is nothing without Edward. She’s just a lifeless lump without him. After about four months without Edward, Charlie finally cracks and decides to send Bella home if she doesn’t pick up. That’s wakes Bella up and decides to go out with her friend Jessica. But while she goes, she spaces out and makes Jessica very angry with Bella. It wasn’t a great night for Bella, but it worked for Charlie. One day, an old family friend, Billy, visits.
