I still enjoyed it, though. But I have a hard time understanding the fascination with Edward...oh, well. It ends happy and that's what I wanted! (  ) Gofita | Jan 7, 2010 | I found this book very hard to get into. I would read it for a little while then put it down and not read it for a few weeks. They I would pick it up again and do the same thing. I really didn't like it when it went from listening from Bella's point of view to listening from Jacob. If this book wasn't part of a series I wouldn't see myself reading it again. ( ) boredness | Jan 6, 2010 | Well, it was inevitable that I wouldn't be able to wait for the paperback - especially since I'd heard that they were holding off releasing it as the hardback was selling so well (greedy bastards!). So the final part of the Twilight series became my Christmas reading, and it took me longer to read this one than the others - and not because of the length, more as it just wasn't as engaging as the others. The relationship sparkle between Edward and Bella just didn't seem to be there, and there was very little action until near the end of the book, I'd even go so far as to say that it is overly long. I'll not give the plot away, but needless to say the relationship between the vampires and the werewolves certainly takes a different turn; and of course Bella is under threat again (although this time she's able to defend herself!). In fact I'm finding it difficult to think what exactly to say about this book except that it finished things off and left an large chance of more sequels. I did enjoy it, and if there are more I'll look forward to them as much as the others, I just hope Meyer can keep the word count down! 24th - 31st December 2009 Bought on Green Metropolis 1  Ms.Moll | Jan 5, 2010 | Full review at: http://readingthroughlife.blog.com/20... Snippet: I had known even before I read the series that the last book, Breaking Dawn, had caused a whole lot of controversy among the Twilight fans, though I hadn’t really known why. Now that I’ve finished reading them, I decided to go looking to find out why people disliked it; here’s a really good summary of most of the major “problems” that some readers have with Meyer’s ending to the story. Honestly? I rather liked it. For starters, Bella and Edward finally get laid. Sure, it was off-screen (off-page?), which was kind of annoying, but at least it finally happened. And hey, there’s a fairly large part of me that was really pleased with the fact that Bella woke up covered in hand-shaped bruises. Come on! That’s hot! 1 darkestembrace | Jan 4, 2010 | 
 And so the pabulum slips down, spoonful by spoonful, with every now and then a neat idea, an unspoken hint of untold perversity, an almost subliminal flash of something nasty.  Over 754 pages, the answers come almost too easily, but not quickly. Certain elements of BREAKING DAWN are perplexing, even off-putting --- particularly the scenes of sex, pregnancy and childbirth. But it's nearly impossible to please everyone --- especially when so much of the series' drama has relied on the tension of Bella's choice between two very different but desirable lovers. Readers who are able, eventually, to gain some perspective will find much to redeem BREAKING DAWN, particularly its new insights into Jacob's inner life as well as its neat resolution to several of the series' pressing conflicts and its realistic (or at least as realistic as a vampire romance can get) portrayal of the complexities and joys of married life.

It's about a human girl named Bella Swan that falls in love with a vampire named Edward Cullen. When I read this book I totally understood how they felt and how they thought.
I still think its kind of weird that Jocab, the werewolf, imprinted with Edward's and Bella's daughter when he was like totally hitting on her in the last three books. They had like totally made out too. But anyways it's still a good book. I think everyone should read this book. (
