Eclipse by Stephenie Meyer

The third book in the Twilight series. Wow, things can only get more complicated for Bella Swan in this book where she has to choose Edward or Jacob. It was fun to learn more about Jasper and Rosalie and how they came to be vampires. It was was interesting too to learn how the werewolves evolved in the Quilite tribes. Meyer's has an excellent ability to transport you to another world that isn't anything like we know. This was fun.

I also mention the book that our book club read this month: Couldn't Keep it to Myself: Testimonies from our Imprisoned Sisters by Wally Lamb. Wally Lamb teaches writing to women inmates at a prison and this book is a compliation of stories from several of the inmates. Our book club had a good discussion which revolved around: abuse, childhood, writing with Wally Lamb. I haven't finished this yet, but it was very interesting to read about these women and we all agreed that Lamb has given these women a voice and the tools to share their experiences.
