Announcement
I just received notice that the ebook was not to be released early and that the ebook vendors made an error in selling it early. The on-sale date for Eclipse is August 7th. Please do not post spoilers to the book here. We will delete them if you do.
Update: BooksonBoard, to make up for its gaffe, is offering e-copies of New Moon at $8.99 and Twilight for $4.49. Twilight was one of my 2005 books of the year. If you are a romance fan of vampire paranormals, I think you would enjoy this book. The promo code is ECLIPSESLIP for the Books on Board discount. The offer ends 11:59 p.m. Central Daylight Time, August 6, 2007.

Want to read the book before its in the stores? Reason 101 to be an ebook reader. Today, Stephenie Meyer’s third book in the Edward and Bella saga is was on sale at Books on Board in ebook format and downloadable right this second but will not be any longer given that BonB wasn’t supposed to release the book until August 7. I suggest buying either the Mobipocket or the MS Lit format.
For those who aren’t in the know, Meyer’s books are Harry Potter-ish in their reach to teens, young adults and adults. Her two books, Twilight and New Moon, have sold over 1 million copies. Not bad for a two book author, hmmm?
Perks like this for being an ebook reader is nice :-)
Thanks. Girl child loves this series. I have made my purchase, but sheesh! What a cumbersome buying process. That combined with the site layout pretty much guaranteed I didn’t book mark the site for future purchases. Too time consuming to do anything and too inconvenient. Prices seemed good, though.
haven’t read the 2nd one in full. i read 2 chapters and got tired.
might check the 3rd one out. isn’t it supposed to be from Edward’s POV?
Girl child reports 1/2 way through that it’s wonderful!
Woo hoo! I made my reserve on this book a while back. I haven’t been this excited about a book in a long time.
Thanks very much. If Eclipse doesn’t arrive tomorrow (I’m in London and we sometimes get things early) than I’ll be buying it and getting no sleep tomorrow night.
Thanks again for letting us know. I’ll be passing the link around.
Well geez, how come I never heard of Books on Board before your last post on ebook stores? Cuz those prices are niiiiiiice. Well, nicer than the other places. And a few books I’ve been wanting that I hadn’t seen around.
Read Twilight recently in ebook and couldn’t find the other two…thanks for the heads-up! Purchased. :)
Glad your daughter is enjoying Eclipse. I hope it doesn’t end on a cliffhanger.
Thanks for the promo code, I’ve had Twilight on my To Buy list forever and hadn’t gotten around to it. This gave me a good excuse to act!
I’m so excited about this book I can hardly stand it! Seriously, knowing I had this to look forward to was the only thing that kept me out of a spiraling depression after finishing Harry Potter.
might check the 3rd one out. isn't it supposed to be from Edward's POV?
No, it doesn’t appear to be, based on the first chapter published on Meyer’s website. It is written in first person POV (Bella’s again.) I did read a reworking of the beginning of Twilight (on Meyer’s website) at one point that was told from Edward’s POV. It is still on her website under “Other Projects” and Midnight Sun. Really interesting if you are a Twilight fan.
I am really looking forward to reading Eclipse.
