The beginning of New Moon killed me. I was so upset for Bella when Edward left. I don't think I really started having complaints about the novels until the third one. I liked New Moon quite a lot, but Eclipse brought up a lot of relationship issues, and I'm not sure if Meyer just brought them up for the hell of it or if she's actually going to do something about them. There are a couple spoiler-y bits behind the cut, so I don't advise reading until after you've finished Eclipse. And on a side-note - I sobbed while reading the last couple chapters of Eclipse. Just sobbed. I had to go get a box of tissues.
