Yeah... I think my eyes are going to go into hiding soon to recuperate. I started Eclipse at 8am this morning and just finished it a moment ago - 6:10pm. No breaks. I liked it better than New Moon, but I still like Twilight the best. I'm no fan of Jacob so I hate it when I see Bella wasting her time with him But I enjoyed the reappearance of Victoria. Love her. What did you guys think of Eclipse?

I actually agree with you all the way - I don't like Jacob, which pretty much automatically made me like it better than New Moon. I remember finding Eclipse very compulsive (like the rest of them), but liking Twilight better, but to be honest I really *ahem* need to reread them all, but these pesky friends of mine keep borrowing them! I was faintly displeased when she discovers her feelings for Jacob, but I'm hopelessly on the Edward team.

I agree about being displeased - I was so glad that throughout the books Bella always said that she never had those kinds of feelings for him. Then out of the blue it was "I'm in love with him!" Ugh. I can't stand him.
I will have to go back and probably reread New Moon and maybe Eclipse (10 hours is a short amount of time to digest everything). I read Twilight twice over the weekend so its pretty fresh in my mind.
I've started Breaking Dawn now but I had to put it down 7 chapters in because my eyes just won't work anymore and I'm exhausted.

I managed to read Breaking Dawn in about 12 hours... Managed to read the whole saga in less than a week, though my whole work ethic was shot because of it! I kept people constantly updated on my Facebook page, so now two other people on my course are cursing me because they've just start reading (seen as synonymous with being obsessed with) the saga and we have loads of work due in. I'm pleased though, because now it means I can twitter on about them even when I'm nowhere near the site

Gee, 10 hours. That's crazy. I'm such a slow reader, I was happy to finish Twilight in less than 24. And was even more amazed when I finished the series in a week or less.
Eclipse is definately one of my favorites. But Twilight will always be my first favorite. Lol. Then it Eclipse, Breaking Dawn, then New Moon. I'm not a big fan of Jacob.

I read Eclipse in about 10 hours across 2 days... I read them while I was at work haha. I've read all of them handful of times and their rank is dynamic at times, but Twilight and New Moon are always top 2. Eclipse usually holds on to the spot for my least favorite of the saga. It's kind of like she made Bella realize that she loved Jacob and kind of tacked on the excuse later on without really letting it settle in. So we're all kind of like... whaaaa? Er.. ok. Haha.

No, I actually love Jacob! That's why I think his happily ever after is almost... forced? I don't quite know how to express it. But for having such crap luck for so long, I was glad to see him happy ^___^

I don't think I can pick a team, it's almost impossible. But for my character's sake I'll go with Team Emmett. He's the laid back one with the dirty jokes. Bahahaha!

If I was to pick a team I'd have to go Team Cullen. I love the whole family.

I hate to be so predictable and common but I'm on Team Edward. Although Carlisle is a close second.

Eclipse is very good. But I really dislike Jacob! He is so annoying in that book!
And then Bella! She is so undecided! It annoys me. But otherwise, it's a great book! I like the plot.

I have to admit... I read Eclipse in 4 hours, and then started over again slowly in 10 hours... And that for a non-English girl LOL. I have to admit, after that I was only able to answer questions in English, which annoyed my parents a great deal. I've read it now about 15 times (Twilight even more). Hughely addicted! I'm a Cullen fan, too, but that's just because the character of Edward reminds me of my own BF I like Jakob a lot, love how he is just being himself, and doesn't care what others think. Wish I could be like that! And honestly, who wouldn't wanna turn into a big giant wolf every once in a while? Pity that Bella loved him too, though. I still thinks she talked it into herself, and doesn't really mean it. And she's so cruel to Jake!
