Stephenie Meyer - Breaking Dawn

Stephenie Meyer - Breaking Dawn
 

Product Review

I loved it nonetheless!!

by   strawbaeri ,   Aug 12, 2008

Pros:  Great plot twists We get to read from Jacob's point of view!

Cons:  Pretty intimate - Not for younger children

The Bottom Line:  Read it. It is a great ending to an amazing series. Things didn't happen exactly as some people had wanted them to. But this way made for a better story!

Overall Rating: 4/5 stars
 

Author's Review

*SW* = Very Small Spoiler Warning (I try keep as much secret as possible!)

BD is divided into 3 sections.

Book I
Breaking Dawn begins only days before the wedding between Edward and Bella. Things are going smoothly, and both bride-and-groom-to-be are preparing for the big day. With a surprise visit from Jacob on the wedding day, things get a little tense between Edward and Jacob. *SW* Bella and Edward are married, and head off to their honeymoon destination.
Fast forward a couple months.

Book II
Things at the reservation have been annoying; at least they have for Jacob. Between putting up with Paul (*SW* who just happened to imprint on his sister, Rachel), and waiting to hear the inevitable news Edward has killed Bella, Jacob is about at his patience limit. At this time, the pack is called for a meeting, and a piece of information is brought forward which shows that the Cullen family has possibly changed Bella into a vampire, violating the treaty. *SW* This sets of a series off events that divides the pack and puts Jacob and Sam against each other.

Book III
Fast Forward a bit (don't want to spoil you too much!)
*SW* The Volturi are coming. Not just the guard; ALL of them. The Cullens have something they want: Alice. They also have something they are very afraid of. *SW* The Cullens have to find more vampires to help them, or they will all die.


I started reading this book with my own speculations of what would happen sitting my head, waiting to be verified. Almost everything that happened in this book knocked my socks off! Some of my speculations turned out to be true, but I don't think anyone saw what happened in the rest of the book coming.

I do agree with people that this book was very different from the other ones. It was a bit of a surprise to me. At one point, I remember thinking: "Did she really write this?" It also needs to be said that *IT GETS VERY INTIMATE* in this book. It is definitely not for younger teenagers as the other books have been. I also felt as if some of the things that happened in the book were a little TOO convenient.

That being said still enjoyed the book. I loved the surprises and suspense, and thought they gave a great twist to the series. I was glued to every page.
