Every lunar month when the moon appears as a crescent on the first day, to eventually become a full moon, that crescent, that thin almost invisible first day of the moon is called a "new moon".

A new moon occurs when the Moon is positioned between the Earth and the Sun. From Earth, the Moon appears completely dark as its illuminated side faces away from us. This signals the start of a new lunar cycle.

So at school Alice Cullen tells her to come over later and gives her a present. In the present is a new outfit. Bella refuses but Jasper changes her mood. Later Edward drives Bella over and just like expected it is a party. Alice had did it a little to over the top, Bella thought. When Bella started opening her presents the first one was empty. That was because Emmet had already installed the radio in her car. The second present she sliced her finger and Jasper attacked. Edward guarded her and Jasper was pulled outside. Carlisle stitched it up and burned the bloody equipment. The next day Edward and Alice weren't at school. When Bella got home Edward was waiting outside. He took her for a walk in the woods. He told her that they all had to leave, not just cause of the incident but because of the fact that Carlisle looked younger for 30 years old. Bella pleaded but Edward said he didn't want her. After the Cullen's had left, Bella sulked all the time. Months passed and Charley confronted her. He said she would have to go to Florida if she didn't get happier. She said she would make plans maybe with Angela. She called Angela and they went to Port Angles to see a movie and shop. On the way out of the theater, Bella recognized some guys with motor cycles. She walked up to them, talked, and got on the motor cycle with him. she clearly heard Edward's voice. She told him to take her back and he did. She went home. The next day she went over to La Push to see Jacob. This time she had two motor cycles of her own. She asked Jacob to help build them back up and he agreed. They worked on the motor cycles together and Bella started feeling better. But Jacob started to develop stronger feelings for Bella. When they were done, Jacob was going to show her how to ride a motor cycle. When she tried she went to fast and hit her head really hard. She was okay though, just a gash on her head. Jacob told her that he was worried about Embry because of Sam and his gang. Later in the book Bella, Jacob, and Mike go to see a movie. During the movie Mike ran out and threw up in the bathroom. They decided to leave and Jacob wasn't feeling well. Bella said he was burning up with a fever. Later Billy claimed he had mono and couldn't have visitors. When she and Jacob make plans to cliff dive he wasn't around. So she went herself. Alice thought she was trying to kill herself. Alice told Rosalie and Rosalie told Edward. Alice showed up to be with Charley but when Bella showed up she was so surprised. Later Edward called Bella's house. Edward asked for Charley but Jacob said he was planning a funeral. That gave Edward the wrong impression. He thought Bella was dead, instead of Harry. So Edward went to Italy to be killed by the Volturi. They declined him because he had such great powers. When Bella and Alice show up, Bella must stop Edward from stepping into the sun. She is seconds late but still gets him out of the sun. The Volturi show up and talk to Edward, Bella, and Alice. They say they can leave as long as Bella becomes a vampire. Alice says she had a vision where Bella becomes a vampire so it wouldn't be a problem. Edward and the Cullen's come back to Forks. Edward tells Bella that he has a condition. That if he changes her that she must marry him. She agrees. I have read the book and seen the movie. I encourage you to both read and watch New Moon. I very much enjoyed it.

Why is new moon by Stephenie Meyers called new moon?
I would've thought it was because Jacob is a werewolf, i dont know its just a suggestion, you know like werewolfs are supposed to turn on new moons "New Moon" is actually called this because in "Twilight" Bella describes Edward as her "own personal moon" However, in New Moon Edward leaves and Bella strieks up a relationship (of sorts) with Jacob. She then goes on to describe Jacob as "Her personal sun" Hence "New Moon" Jacob is taking Edwards place.
How does the moon turn into a new moon?
The moon doesn't 'turn into' a new moon, or anything else. The term 'new moon' is used when the moon is on the same side of the Earth as the sun. When that happens, the lit side of the moon is completely facing away from the earth, and the bright blue daylight sky prevents us from seeing any part of its dark face. Because the ancients thought that the moon had disappeared completely, they often used the term 'new moon' (or something similar) to describe the first thin crescent that would appear the following day.
What does New Moon Mean?
The new moon is one of the four main phases of the Moon. The phases of the Moon describe the position of the Moon in its orbit around the Earth. The new Moon occurs when the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun. It is when nights are the darkest as the Moon cannot be seen for most of the night since it is obscured by the Earth. The opposite of the new Moon is the full Moon which occurs when the Earth is between the Moon and the Sun. The moon is its brightest when it's full and it shines all night.
Why does a solar eclipse always ocurr on a new moon day?
The "New Moon" is the moment when the moon is directly between us and the sun. At that time, we can't see the moon at all, because we're looking at the "back side" of it that's completely unlit by the sun. That's where the moon has to be in order for its shadow to fall on the Earth, and for people to be in it. "Being in the moon's shadow" is another way to describe a solar eclipse.
