Reading from Monday, November 10 and Tuesday, November 11

In the past two days I started the sequel to Twilight by reading from page 1 - 190. At the beginning, Bella celebrates her 18th birthday by going over to the Cullens for a party, which doesn't turn out well. She gets a paper cut, Jasper goes berserk, Edward saves her by pushing her out of the way into some crystal plates, which shatter, and she ends up in a pool of her own blood. the only one able to withstand the temptation is Dr. Carlisle Cullen, from his work at the hospital. He sews her up and gets her home safely. She is fine after the fact, but Edward and Jasper are very shaken up. This ultimately leads to the Cullen family needing to move away, leaving Bella in a shock. She walks around as a zombie for months, but then something awakens her, and she comes back into living. She realizes that Jacob Black, a boy from La Push, is the kind of friend she'd always wanted. They rebuild two motorcycles together, Bella watching as Jacob works, and try them out. The first two times Bella gets hurt, but she wants to continue because, as soon as she gets on the bike, she hears Edward's voice in her head, telling her that what she is about to do is stupid, reckless, and childish.
