Week 13
I read for about about two hours this week. I could not believe what I read! Bella is pregant. I didn't think that could be possible. When she found out Edward arranged to go home and have Carlisle "take care of it." I do not know waht it would be like to be pregnant with a vampire's baby, but it kind of made me mad. They were planning on abortion basically. Bella did not like this idea, but she never said anything. I guess it could be harmful to Bella, especially since she couldn't be more than 17 days pregnant and was already feeling the baby kick. Maybe the vampire baby grows at an accelerated rate and would grow too large for Bella's stomach and would end up hurting her. If that's the case than I understand why Edward and Carlisle would want to take care of it. I do not know if Bella stood up for the baby or not. The book is divided into different perspectives. I ended with knowing Bella and Edward were headed home and then picked up with Jacob's story. I really like that the book is set up this way but it just left me hanging. It makes me want to flip through the pages until I find something mentioning the baby. Jacob's part of the book has been pretty boring so far. There isn't a lot of excitement, just him worried and wondering about Bella. I'm hoping that Bella comes back and he tells his side of waht is going on with the preganacy. I cannot wait for these next two weeks to be over so I can just sit down and finish the book without having to manage my time with homework. I am excited to find out what happens. I am hoping that there is some way that Bella can keep the baby. I decided that when I finish this book I want to read Gathering Blue and Messsenger by Lois Lowry. I read the giver, which is the first book in the trilogy. I didn't know it was part of a trilogy until I had to research the author to write a paper. I liked The Giver so much that I am sure I will enjoy the other two.

I have never read the other two books in the Giver series, nor have I ever heard anything good about them. I will be interested to hear what you have to say.
ReplyDeleteA vampire baby? I am glad you are enjoying this book, and the series. But - a vampire baby? That author has a LOT of imagination. I trust it is exceptionally well written to make you contemplate a vampire baby!!
