Breaking Dawn (Twilight #4)

Reader reviewed by Jordan

I fell in love with Twilight after reading the first three books, but this one was disappointing.  The whole honeymoon between Edward and Bella was awkward to read.  And, an unexpected pregnancy isn't really a good end to a series that 12-year-olds read.  The only thing I did like about Breaking Dawn were the chapters in Jacob's point of view.  He definitely had more personality than Bella, and he's hilarious.  I would recommend this book just because I liked those chapters so much.  But, other than that, it could have been so much better.

After reading all of her books in this saga, I have concluded Meyer should have stopped after Twilight. I really liked Twilight and it did in fact leave me wanting to know more, however I didn't like where the story went after that. I hated Bella's whining and I could never quite accept the whole werewolf theory. I guess I wanted the happily ever after with Bella and Edward, but of course Meyer had to spice things up by adding Jacob. As far as young adult books go, then this is a good series, but I found the whole thing to be over-rated

The final installment in the beloved Twilight series, "Breaking Dawn" by author Stephenie Meyers was a much anticipated release celebrated by fans the world over.  Many gathered for midnight release parties at their local book stores (guilty!), or staged their own gatherings, to commerrate its arrival.

In this book, we are the welcome guests at the wedding of the century, an island getaway with unpredicted and unprecedented results, all gathered up with an ending you won't want to miss.  Beware as....the Volturi are coming, the Volturi are coming!  (sorry, couldn't resist)  Yes, don't forget about the little promise made to them regarding Bella's future back in book 2 (New Moon).  You didn't think that they forgot did you? 

I must apologize to you the potential reader as I know this post is a bit vague, but as this novel is the newest in the series, I would hate to reveal too much and spoil the MANY surprises within.  Rest assured whether you are Team Edward (YAY!) or Team Jacob, there is something for everyone in here.  Add it to your MUST READ list today!  Happy reading....

Again, Stephenie Meyer has created another book for her saga. This book was really good. even though instead of only seeing things through Bella's perspective, you now get to know Jacob's throughout the book. It really doesn't turn out with as much action as there seems to be but it does keep you wondering whats going to happen next.

This book was probaly my favorite of the twilight saga following the 3rd known as eclipse. I enjoyed the different parts it was written in. especially how she took the time ti write through jacobs point of view. Although some parts are considered shocking i enjoyed every one of them!! I loved the end it put everything in perespectiv for me although i was sad it had to end.

This was the book everyone waited for, and yet, it turned out to be something we weren't expecting. Personally, I disliked it, because I felt like I was reading a different book, by a different author. Bella was so detached, or something, I couldn't relate to her.

First, what was up with the wedding? Sure it was beautiful, but Bella didn't want it. Then the honeymoon was weird. Then Bella becomes pregnant, it is terribly painful, and the birth is very descriptive. I hated how she almost killed herself for the child. I found Jacobs narrative to be the most interesting, because I was sick of Bella at that point. Then to find out he imprinted on Bella's baby? Are you serious? It is a little disturbing, but I can get past it. I disliked the fact that, even after she made the choice of Edward, she still got the kid in the end. Bella had her cake, and ate it too.

In all, the tone was so different. I didn't feel like it was the same author, the same character, but the story did wrap up nicely, if even a little too nicely. I was relieved Meyer gave the story an ending, which every great story needs. I expected more out of the book and ending, but she gave us what she gave us nevertheless.
