Jasper Cullen, still struggling with his family’s no-human diet, loses control and attacks Bella. When the Cullens (Edward’s vampire family) throw a birthday party for Bella at their house, clumsy Bella gets a paper cut while unwrapping one of her presents, and spills a little blood. To Bella’s major distress, Edward still refuses to turn her into a vampire. She also just turned eighteen – a painful reminder that her human clock is ticking while Edward will stay young and handsome forever. She just spent a dreamy summer with her vampire love, Edward, and now it’s time to go back to school. (Catch up on all the juicy details of Twilight in our full discussion on Shmoop.) Bella is still living in rainy Forks, Washington with her dad, Charlie. Avid readers of Twilight already know that the narrator is none other than our protagonist, Isabella "Bella" Swan. New Moon begins with our narrator in deep trouble, running against a clock, chiming in "the end of everything" (Preface.1).
