 Not As Good As The First Three January 6, 2009

I was very disappointed in how Breaking Dawn ended. Myers does a wonderful job of building suspense and a feeling of impendng doom with the coming of the Volturi but then it's like she just gives up in the end. Certain things didn't make sense. Why would the Volturi drag the Wives to the battle unless they were dead set on killing the Cullens. From the first mention of them in Twilight, we are told that the Volturi are death incarnate. All who stand against them are washed away in a flood of fire and blood and yet a new born vampire is able to undermine their whole operation. Hmm. . . I can understand if Myers didn't want to kill off any of her characters but why build up to such an anticlimax?
I also had a problem with Jacob suddenly not being a werewlf anymore but a shapeshifter. That was kind of a stretch considering since New Moon we have been steeped in the whole 'werewolf/vampire mortal enemy' thing.
The book does get one star for the slasher scene but then I have always been a horror fan and two more stars for the 'Jacob' section. I thought that was neat and well written.

I LOVE all the twilight series. Breaking dawn is my favourite!!! I think every women fantasies are in this book. Oh don't we all want Edward or 2 be Bella?...:) I felt strongly that after reading this last one.
Personally I love a happy ending January 6, 2009

After reading all of the reviews I thought I would break down and write my own. I came into the Twilight world by chance and like almost everyone who has read Twilight, I too fell in love and finshed the whole series in less then two weeks. I laughed, cried and like some cringed. Despite the cringing, I loved Breaking Dawn, I loved the wedding, I loved their honeymoon, and I loved that Bella and Edward were going to have a "little nudger!!" The whole pregnacy and birth was a little crazy but the whole idea of a girl falling in love with a vampire, then marrying one, then becoming one is a little crazy. I'm glad even vampires can learn that one time is all it takes!! As far as the happy ending, it took Bella three previous books to get her happy ending, the fighting, Edward leaving, more fighting I was glad they got to be together in the end. People wanted a big fight to happen, but if Alice or Carlise or someone else were to have died people would of been mad with that too. As for Jacob imprinting on the "little nudger" I have to say I was happy with that too, happy that Jacob was happy and was finally over Bella. Like I said before some of the things were a little crazy but overall I was happy and I WISH Meyer would take us back there again sometime, we all need a happy ending sometimes!!

After seeing the move I fell in love with the Twilight story. I got all four books four Christmas, I could put the first three down, I was done reading them in a week. Then I got to Braking Dawn, what a disappointment .I still haven't finished it. I keep skipping pages because it got so boring .I what a redo of the ending. After the wedding why cant Jacob kidnapped Bella or something? After the kiss she shared with him I was hoping there would be more to their story! This book almost runs the whole Twilight series for me! And that imprint thing is just weird and almost gross. If the movie series continue I hope for a different ending.
Breaking Dawn - what a disappointment January 5, 2009

I finally decided to read Twightlight and was entranced. So I went out and got the other books and did enjoy New Moon and Eclipse. However, what a disappointment Breaking Dawn was. I totally agree with all of the negative reviews. It is like the characters are not themselves in this book. I can't even picture Edward and Bella, they seem to be strangers. Also, the baby story line is very strange.
