As usual, the book was much better than the movie. Although, the movie was very thrilling. The movie changed several settings and left out things. They put scenes in the movie that were not in the book. I felt the changed scenes did not help, like Bella and Charlie did not eat out every night, Bella cooked. If felt that small item would not have added time to the movie and kept it truer to the story line. But all in all, I would recomend the movie.
