New Moon Has Arrived
July 13th, 2008 at 1:27 am by Kaleb Nation
Those of you who came Saturday evening got to see the unveiling of the new header for New Moon. I must admit, I was really sweating it out. See, I order my books on Amazon. Last week, I realized that I had forgotten all about the fact that to get books from Amazon, they must be shipped. Whoops.
Luckily, there happens to be an Amazon warehouse within 30 minutes of me, and thus the shipping that should have taken 4 days took 24 hours. Wait, forget I said that: I have a new alibi. I couldn’t wait another second for New Moon, so I paid loads to have it overnighted. That sounds much better 😀
I don’t exactly know what my expression in this photo (<—)Â is saying. One second I look like I’m stunned because someone sees me reading New Moon; the next second I look rather annoyed and about to whack somebody with a club. If you want to see the rest of the photos, look in this direction.
This post, also, happens to be the first in the category known as New Moon. So here’s to starting the book! My first chapter post will be here very soon. And I’d love to know what you people think of the new top design

Ha ha ha! Kaleb, you look stunning as always!
July 13th, 2008 at 1:45 am
whoo hoo! I’m so excited to see what you think of New Moon. And I luv the new design by the way XD
July 13th, 2008 at 1:45 am
The header is funny! Although I do wonder who exactly you’re looking at in the one on the left side…Someone who hasn’t heard of Twilight, perhaps? That’s definitely the look I give people, anyway.
Have fun with New Moon..I cannot WAIT to hear all of your comments. It’s going to be VERY interesting!!!

I love it! Can’t wait to read what you think of New Moon!
July 13th, 2008 at 1:59 am
I really like the new look. The Twilight themed version seemed darker somehow, and the simple New Moon cover gives a little variation from black and red. Ironically, I was just on your MySpace profile saying how I couldn’t wait for you to get into New Moon, when, lo and behold, it was there waiting for me =). I’m the most interested in your reaction to New Moon than the others for reasons you’ll understand later (as in, when you finish the book).
July 13th, 2008 at 2:49 am
hurrah! new moon is not my favorite, but good golly u r movin on! the header is very nice, did u change the color of the red? it seems more…purpley. maybe it’s just the blue on the flower that is makin me think that…
July 13th, 2008 at 2:52 am
Yay! Love the new header. I can’t wait to see what you think of New Moon!
July 13th, 2008 at 3:03 am
The new Header is very awesome but yes…who are you looking at in the left picture?! hmmm…
You will love New Moon.
Team Edward, Team Jacob or Team Switzerland?!
Take Care and Have Fun!!~~
July 13th, 2008 at 3:10 am
i like the design.
i’m soooo intrigued as to how you’ll perceive New Moon… it’s something else.
i wonder if you’ll chose sides: Edward, Jacob, or Switzerland… you being a guy and all, i wonder which appeals to your Y chromosome the most.
July 13th, 2008 at 3:19 am
hehe.
you’ll love New Moon.
i promise.
loving the new header!
iloveyoukaleb!
peace.
July 13th, 2008 at 3:20 am
Woohoo I can’t wait for you to post your first post on New Moon! Oh and I love the picture on the right, you definitely look like you’re about to attack someone ^^
First comment for me, but I’ve been following your literary adventures for a while now, so be sure to see more of me on future posts!
July 13th, 2008 at 3:21 am
Love the new design…I love your facial expressions. You just crack me up!
I agree with shadesofblack, I too have been wondering if you will choose sides. I also have a feeling that New Moon and Eclipse will go much faster than Twilight, especially if you don’t start school back until August.
Who knows? Maybe you will even be with the rest of us in line at midnight August 1st to get Breaking Dawn!
July 13th, 2008 at 3:34 am
great new header.
your expressions are funny. eheh.
happy reading! (:
July 13th, 2008 at 3:41 am
I would like the pictures better if they contained any other book in the series besides New Moon. It wasn’t my favorite for reasons I can’t say without spoiling the book for you.
July 13th, 2008 at 3:43 am
hey kaleb!! I can’t wait untill you start new moon!!
i just wanted to say that I know you have probably read alot of negative things about Jacob Black. but I hope you will ignore those comments and give Jake a chance.
I think it’s easy for people to take sides and create silly wars like team jacob and team edward. but I think it takes more to understand and love and apreciate two sides.that’s why I love Bella so much.
anyways happy reading!!
July 13th, 2008 at 4:00 am
GO KALEB!
You’re FINALLY on New Moon
I like the main header and I can’t wait to read your future blog entries!
July 13th, 2008 at 4:02 am
I love you, Kaleb!
And HONESTLY, all I have to say to you reading through the first chapter before you NOT immediately turning the page for the next chapter as fast as you possibly can (potentially ripping the page, there) is GOOD LUCK.
July 13th, 2008 at 4:32 am
Great Job on the header Kaleb. I love your expressions, and Stephenie was right… you keep me stocked in buckets of laughter. I’m glad you’re finally on to New Moon. A lot of people don’t like this book, but I believe it is pivotal in the plot of the entire series. It also shows that Edward is not perfect despite his best intentions… that Bella is loving, kind, giving, devoted; and it shows another side of Bella as well… and finally it gives us a closer look at Jacob if you haven’t figured that out already;). I’m interested in knowing what team you’ll choose, of if you’ll stay completely objective (which I don’t think is possible). Good Luck reading, and I hope you’ll be able to stop with one chapter at a time, but then again you found it hard not to turn the page at the end of Twilight. As always since Stephenie’s blog about your site I’ll be tuned in and spreading the word about the twilight guy extraordinaire.
July 13th, 2008 at 4:45 am
FLIPPIN SWEET that’s what I think….
no but seriously, it’s awesome
I would wish you good luck but that sounds like I’m sending you off to your impending demise or something. So instead I’ll say enjoy!
July 13th, 2008 at 5:46 am
Congrats on finishing Twilight! I hope you enjoy New Moon just as much, I’m sure you will
July 13th, 2008 at 6:29 am
listen to amanda.
ignore every comment you hear about Jacob.
the good ones and the bad ones.
and just form your own opinion about him.
i love him.
but some ppl just hate anything that gets in the way of their precious fairytale ending.
i think he’s a great guy.
and, of course, he’s not as great as Edward.
He’s 16.
Edward’s like 100 or something.
Anywayyy…
have fun w/ New Moon.
iloveyoukaleb.
peace.
July 13th, 2008 at 6:36 am
Hahaha..
Your pictures with New Moon is really funny!
I’m really excited though about you reading New Moon. Brace yourself as they are gonna to be plentifull of surprises in there! 😀
July 13th, 2008 at 7:23 am
After driving around town looking for Entertainment Weekly and not being able to find it, I was extremely depressed. But seeing you finally made it to New Moon cheered me up so much. ^^
I am looking forward to you reactions to everything that happens. I hope you haven’t been spoiled yet.
Although New Moon isn’t my favorite, it’s still my third favorite book in the world because it is Twilight.
I hope you enjoy it as much as possible!
P.S.:
Will it be possible for you to start reading two chapters at a time in honor of the second book? ;D
July 13th, 2008 at 7:27 am
yes! new moon! this may not be my favorite, but i love this one! of course i only like the middle, because it has loads of my favorite characters. (people who’ve read new moon know what im talking about.)
July 13th, 2008 at 7:39 am
Excellent! I’m definitely looking forward to seeing what you think of New Moon. 😀
I do love the new header, by the way.
Oh, and I showed my 13-year-old brother my site last night, and it made him want to read Twilight. And he seldom reads anything that isn’t manga. So thank you for helping my brother to want to read something other than a cartoon strip for a change. =)
July 13th, 2008 at 7:41 am
[…]Oh, and I showed my 13-year-old brother YOUR site last night[…]
That’s what it’s supposed to say.
July 13th, 2008 at 8:18 am
NEW MOON =X sigh hahaha. i cant wait for your commentaries on it. i hope you havent been spoiled too much, because that would suck. i love the new design, good job!
July 13th, 2008 at 8:45 am
I love the new top design, and I am just so excited that you are on to New Moon!!! I am really looking forward to your commentaries! (I hope the lasagna bugler stays away…*shivers* tee hee!)
July 13th, 2008 at 8:55 am
I love the new pics! but I think that if you call it “a guy who reads the Twilight saga” then there should be a pic of New Moon and a pic of Twilight up top, bu thats just me.
July 13th, 2008 at 9:13 am
AWESOME, man. I love the new design and the pictures. 😀 Can’t wait to see your first post on New Moon! That book is… wow.
July 13th, 2008 at 9:15 am
KALEB! I leave town and get on my friend’s computer and all the sudden you’ve finished Twilight, picked the song, AND gotten New Moon?? jeez!! But also, YAY!! Because that means you’ll start it soon. Right? I better be right. Or I [and 5000 other people] will be angry.
Oh, and I agree with Poiple, I think you should have a Twilight picture up on the header thing also. Just telling you my opinion.
NOW STOP READING THIS AND GO READ NEW MOON, DANGIT!
<3
Corinne!
July 13th, 2008 at 9:34 am
YEY! *claps for Kaleb* Love the new top design. Good luck with reading my third favorite book to date…Breaking Dawn might bump NM down to fourth place 😀
Speaking of breaking dawn…are u aware that its released in 19days 45minutes 33seconds and 547milliseconds?
July 13th, 2008 at 9:51 am
LOVE the new look! LOVE that you are reading New Moon! LOVE hearing what you have to say, but…do you think you could read more then one chapter this time?
July 13th, 2008 at 9:56 am
Yay! I look forward to reading what you think of New Moon!
July 13th, 2008 at 9:59 am
I love the new banner!
I must say, the last banner PWNed, but this one is good to 😀
Yay!
July 13th, 2008 at 10:39 am
Love the New Moon top design! In this book, you should have lots of fun experiencing the wonderful, friendly, comforting (and yet, arrogant and annoying) Jacob Black! Have fun! I wish you well on this literary endeavor.
July 13th, 2008 at 10:47 am
can’t wait for you to start reading!!!
and I’m an idiot because it took me forever to realize the pictures in the header had changed lol. although, that’s not surprising considering how i don’t notice when trees and buildings go missing….. but i do like the pictures. in the one it looks like you’re about to kill someone for interrupting you. lol
July 13th, 2008 at 11:06 am
i didn’t even notice the new header until i read this post about it :\ oops. but I think it looks awesome!
hopefully you haven’t seen TOO many spoilers about New Moon, though. I hate when people give away what happens in a book/movie I haven’t read/seen.
I’ll stop now so you can get to reading on New Moon instead of reading my comment, lol
July 13th, 2008 at 11:09 am
My sis and i loooove your pics!!
They’re so funny and cooool!!!
Anyways take care and start reading soon ok!!
Bye
July 13th, 2008 at 11:17 am
Yea! I can’t wait to see your insight on New Moon! I have so many songs to put that go with this book, so you just wait! ha! Also, I got my brother to read Twilight (I was inspired by you of course). I think that he secretly enjoyed it a lot more than he says, but he just won’t admitt it. Read quickly! lol!
July 13th, 2008 at 11:32 am
Thats funny actualy- you and my grandma are starting New Moon at the same time! xD Have fun
July 13th, 2008 at 11:35 am
great new look! and i wish i had a amazon wearhouse only 30 mins away… i’m slightly jealous.
Happy Reading!
July 13th, 2008 at 11:51 am
fan flipping tastic! love the new design and pics! good job kaleb, you rock! have fun with new moon, and TRY not to have a heart attack plz! lol
<3
July 13th, 2008 at 11:51 am
Me again ^^
I’ve just did a little calculation: if you read three chapters every day, you’ll get through New Moon and Eclipse just in time for Breaking Dawn!
You think you could do it?
…
Pleeeease?
July 13th, 2008 at 11:52 am
done*
I’ve just DONE a little calculation (must be my French taking over ^^)
July 13th, 2008 at 11:53 am
whoot! whoot!
congats!
i hope you like new moon1
by the by your pics arent that bad!
<3
July 13th, 2008 at 11:54 am
I lurveeee the new design.
I can’t wait till you post your thought on the first chapter 😀
Happy Reading!
July 13th, 2008 at 12:16 pm
Awesomeness… Very nice- Applause*
July 13th, 2008 at 12:19 pm
Kaleb,
Excellent header.
Similar, but different.
Or perhaps, different, but similar.
I assume that is what you were going for?
July 13th, 2008 at 12:27 pm
YAY I love New Moon because its so different, I cannot wait to hear your thoughts! 😀
July 13th, 2008 at 12:58 pm
congrats on starting new moon. All of us fans wait for your post of the first chapter!
July 13th, 2008 at 1:03 pm
So I’ve gotta know. Did you go with the paperback or hardback version?
July 13th, 2008 at 1:04 pm
Well I think those two emotions will work for new moon pretty well! lol Loving the new top design! and YAY for you staring new moon!
July 13th, 2008 at 1:42 pm
Love your new header! I’m glad you’re continuing with the series ^.^
July 13th, 2008 at 1:48 pm
argh. i can’t see the new header :/
But yay that you’re finally onto New Moon.
Just think, if you read quick enough, you could be able to get to Eclipse when everyone else is on Breaking Dawn :O
July 13th, 2008 at 1:52 pm
haha i didnt even notice the change until u pointed it out. lol im stupid…
July 13th, 2008 at 1:59 pm
I really like the new header! Can’t wait for your take on NM, wonder who’s team you’ll be on? And to Laei, I think 3 chapters a day might be a little much…
Yay for Kaleb!
July 13th, 2008 at 2:05 pm
I love the new header! The other pictures you had were good, too. =P
Yay! You’re starting New Moon! I can’t wait to hear what you think!
July 13th, 2008 at 2:11 pm
you know Kaleb, I’ve been thinking…
you should put a ‘back to top’ button on the bottom of your comments page because it sucks to have to scroll all the way back up to the top of the page after posting a comment. Especially when you have like, eleventy bazillion comments already! What do you think?
July 13th, 2008 at 2:11 pm
AH!!!! I am so excited!!!
For you and for me because I can’t wait to see what you think.
July 13th, 2008 at 2:40 pm
Yes!! I love the new header.. It’s awesome and I can’t wait for the first chapter….. well that is if you can stop where it leaves off.. If you can I will be more amazed by your self control then Edward’s ha ha ha..
July 13th, 2008 at 3:02 pm
Great Header!
I can’t wait to see what you think about New Moon.
July 13th, 2008 at 4:24 pm
I can’t wait to read your reaction to the….erm….turn of events.
😀
You will get throwm for a loop.
The new header pictures definitely fit.
ENJOY!

July 13th, 2008 at 6:18 pm
Very nice!!! I’ll be shocked if you stop at the first chapter of New Moon…
July 13th, 2008 at 6:33 pm
Ah, Kaleb- you know you make me stop breathing sometimes? After your ending… well, you’re fantastic. So thank you, Kaleb, for the last month or so of such a great perspective of one of my favorite books. Can’t wait to see how you handle New Moon! <33333 Good luck!
July 13th, 2008 at 6:36 pm
Wow, I really like your new header! I’m also really excited to see what you have to say about New Moon since your opinions on Twilight were really great, so I’m really stocked to see what you think!
July 13th, 2008 at 6:55 pm
YAY! I’m hyped for you to read New Moon… I want to know what you think about… Well, maybe I’ll just let you blog and I’ll just read.
July 13th, 2008 at 7:19 pm
it fits.
you do look stunning. lol
July 13th, 2008 at 7:39 pm
I think you’re going to have to read quickly buddy. Breaking Dawn will be here in 19 days 3 hours and…however many minutes as I’m writing this. You still have to get through Eclipse!! Move it!
Funny pics, by the way. lol
July 13th, 2008 at 7:48 pm
I stumbled across your website.. I just wanted to tell you to keep reading because you make some really good points about how Edward acts and why(most sensible chicks) love him, it’s not just the way he looks-though thats really hot- but how he treats bella and every other female around him. I really wish that a lot of guys would start reading this series and get out of the prejudgment that its just a stupid girls book. Thank you for reading it… oh how is new moon so far?
July 13th, 2008 at 7:53 pm
i cant wait ’til you start reading new moon!
it’ll be interesting to see what you think of it,
and i lovee the new design
July 13th, 2008 at 8:10 pm
haha nice design 😉 got to say, love your facial expressions you’re hilarious ! Can’t wait for you to start new moon, get going! Breaking Dawn is less than 3 weeks away!
July 13th, 2008 at 8:14 pm
i’m so glad you’ve moved on to new moon! these books are my all-time favourite, as well as the host. Which i ABSOLUTLEY recommend. I love the design that you made, and the pictures with the book…you are hilarious. alway brighten my day with your posts/pictures/movies. You should totally do the same design with eclipse and breaking dawn when you get there…and then midnight sun when it comes out…hopefully.
waiting to read your book when it comes out
good luck reading
July 13th, 2008 at 8:17 pm
Yeah!!! I’m so syked that you are finally on to New Moon. It’s def. not the best book of the series, but it does a lot to set up Eclipse. Have fun!
July 13th, 2008 at 8:27 pm
I like the header..hmmm..let’s see if you can resist the urge to go on and read chapter 2.
July 13th, 2008 at 8:36 pm
omg!!finally you’re onto new moon.=]
new moon definatley wasn’t my favourite and it gets a bit boring in the middle but it will be worth in the end….
=]=]=]
July 13th, 2008 at 8:40 pm
I love the new layout! i can’t wait to see how you interpret new moon! hurry up and read!
July 13th, 2008 at 9:04 pm
Haha! I love it! I can’t wait until you start posting chapters! I’ve GOT to know your reaction to this book! It’s going to be… interesting… I’d bet.
July 13th, 2008 at 9:07 pm
Ok, I am an adult, in my head, (almost 28) and yet I find myself obsessing over when you will post your next review of the chapters. I have submitted 2 suggestions for songs/chapters. I really hope you take the suggestions, and really hope you don’t find yourself as depressed as I was while reading this book. I actually told my husband more than once “I have GOT to stop reading this book!” I would have to lay it down for a bit, remember the better times, and then pick it up again.
Have fun reading the book.
July 13th, 2008 at 9:10 pm
haha It’s completely worth the extra money! I cheated in New Moon, though. I had to skip from a certain chapter to the end and then go back and read it all over. It’s an amazing book, though, and I hope you enjoy it!
July 13th, 2008 at 9:12 pm
PLEASE don’t hate edward in chapter 3- and don’t flip trough the middle part too fast!!Stephenie specifically warned about that on her website!!!
AND REMEMBER- EDWARD ONLY HAS BELLA’S BEST INTERESTS IN MIND, no matter what…
too bad hes glaringly WRONG!!!…!!!…!!!…
July 13th, 2008 at 9:25 pm
wow, im suprised your starting new moon so quick.
im glad.
great design too.
July 13th, 2008 at 10:02 pm
I’ve been reading for the last month, so I decided I’d jump in at the beginning of New Moon, my Favorite in the Twilight Saga!!! You’ll really love it, I’m sure =) And I love your design at the top, can’t wait till the first post! Hurry! =D
July 13th, 2008 at 10:04 pm
Haha, I love the header.
I hope you enjoy New Moon, Kaleb.
Its my favourite
July 13th, 2008 at 10:05 pm
I love your site, Kaleb. It is one of the few that I check regularly. I like the new header, and I’m really looking forward to what you have to say about NM.
July 13th, 2008 at 10:06 pm
i love the new look and pictures! great expressions par usual!!!
can’t wait to read your commentary!
July 13th, 2008 at 10:15 pm

July 13th, 2008 at 10:39 pm
Oh! Kaleb it looks awesome.
I can’t wait for you to read the first chapter, and I bet you will not wanna stop there and go on to the second chapter 😉
July 13th, 2008 at 11:28 pm
Great new layout! I can’t wait to see what you think about New Moon I’m sooo excited for you!! I’ve got some songs I thought you should check out for this book…
* 12 Stones-The way I feel
* 12 Stones-Stay
* One Republic-Stop and Stare
* One Less Reason-Favorite Color
* One Less Reason-Worthless
* One Republic-All Fall Down
* Pillar-Smiling Down
Sorry if thats alot all these songs make me think of Edward and a couple make me think of Jacob..sorry if this is the wrong way to show you songs I didn’t know how and this is my first comment here ..but yeah hope you like some of these songs
LOVE your site!
July 14th, 2008 at 8:06 am
The new layout is awesome. I lurve it.
Woah that was a quick start, eh? You just plunged right into that sucker.
I think you should read this one faster, because we were all way too kind and patient during Twilight. Now, you owe us
And the pictures are *chuckle* fantastic. Hot stuff, ahaha.
July 14th, 2008 at 1:37 pm
the new layout is great!
you will love new moon! good luck!

Im not that much of a online reader to be honest but your sites really nice, keep it up! I’ll go ahead and bookmark your website to come back down the road. Cheers
October 20th, 2015 at 5:31 pm
Hi, i feel that i noticed you visited my site thus i got here to return the choose.I am trying to find issues to improve my website!I assume its ok to make use of a few of your ideas!!
October 21st, 2015 at 8:22 am
I’ve been surfing on-line greater than three hours nowadays, yet I never found any attention-grabbing article like yours. Its beautiful worth sufficient for me. In my view, if all site owners and bloggers made excellent content material as you probably did, the internet will probably be a lot more helpful than ever before.
October 21st, 2015 at 8:26 am
Nice post. I learn some thing tougher on various blogs everyday. Most commonly it is stimulating to read content off their writers and rehearse a little something at their store. Id would rather apply certain while using the content in my weblog whether you do not mind. Natually Ill provide a link with your internet blog. Thanks for sharing.
October 21st, 2015 at 1:59 pm
I was on Twitter looking for Neiko Tools Cordless Tools when I found a link to this blog, happy I stopped by Cheers
October 22nd, 2015 at 12:04 am
Spot on with this write-up, I actually think this website needs so much more consideration. Ill probably be again to read more, thanks for that info.
October 22nd, 2015 at 6:25 am
Your article value browsing. I came across the application well crafted along with simply logical. I must i think appreciate plenty of time you spent to create the following. Im sure very pleased plus watch for your following blog post.
October 22nd, 2015 at 7:09 am
These are very inspiring reminds me again that i must sort out something a bit more special for my own blog! I particularly like Brian jeremys design. Good post, thanks.
