Product Description
When you loved the one who was killing you, it left you no options. How could you run, how could you fight, when doing so would hurt that beloved one? If your life was all you had to give, how could you not give it? If it was someone you truly loved?
To be irrevocably in love with a vampire is both fantasy and nightmare woven into a dangerously heightened reality for Bella Swan. Pulled in one direction by her intense passion for Edward Cullen, and in another by her profound connection to werewolf Jacob Black, a tumultuous year of temptation, loss, and strife have led her to the ultimate turning point. Her imminent choice to either join the dark but seductive world of immortals or to pursue a fully human life has become the thread from which the fates of two tribes hangs.
Now that Bella has made her decision, a startling chain of unprecedented events is about to unfold with potentially devastating, and unfathomable, consequences. Just when the frayed strands of Bella's life-first discovered in Twilight, then scattered and torn in New Moon and Eclipse-seem ready to heal and knit together, could they be destroyed... forever?
The astonishing, breathlessly anticipated conclusion to the Twilight Saga, Breaking Dawn illuminates the secrets and mysteries of this spellbinding romantic epic that has entranced millions.

I loved this book as I did with the first 3 books. I really hope this isn't the last one.
A message to those hating on Stephenies work. October 10, 2008

Contains Major Spoiler!
First off I just want to tell all the haters that they're ridiculous. I don't mind people disagreeing with the book or downright hating it. What I'm sick and tired of is hearing about how Stephenie went and made Bella's character a bad role model for young girls to look up to. Stephenie is the author and she can write her book however way she wants to. I think people get caught up in the idea that it's their own personal story and should cater to exactly how they want it to pan out. This was Stephenie's dream of how she wanted this book to be written. If you had an idea of a book to write and you believed it was so perfect in your mind of how you wanted it to be but everyone around you told you how to write it, would you listen to them? She is the author, we're just going along with the ride and reading her work. There are things in the story that shocked and surprised me. There were things I wish hadn't happened and things I wished that did happen. It's fine to have your own opinion, but to go to the extent to making assumptions about Stephenie copping out and throwing a sloppy book together or that she's giving young girls a bad image to look up to is just very immature and narrowminded. Also what's really bugging me is all the negative attention on Bella deciding to name her daughter Renesmee. When I first read it, I fell in love with the name. It's unique, I don't understand why people say it's hard to pronounce and spell. It's a beautifull name. I thought about naming my kitten that but of course I'm the only twilight fan at home and no one got it so I just settled for Bella. Enough said, that's my opinion on her name, you can have your own.

It was a wonderful read and great to see all characters come to one big happy ending. I enjoyed the whole fight seen, I couldn't put the book down.
This isn'ta book you read to your kids October 9, 2008

I don't understand why these people keep complaining about the example this book sets for kids. Sure the book is intended for young readers... I'm 22 years old so I still remember what it was like to be 13. I would never close the series and think "Wow, can't wait to have a kid and get married". You're 13 years old but you're not stupid. Juliet was 13 years old when she DIED for Romeo. You don't see young teens dying for their first love because Shakespeare wrote about it. This book isn't about life lessons. If you want to teach your kids lessons on life read them "Chicken Soup for ..". This is a fictional series about a mortal in love with a vampire like harry potter was a fictional series about a wizard going to wizard school. Stephenie Meyer didn't type up this story with the intention to teach young readers lessons on life. This is pure enjoyment. If you didn't enjoy it, too bad. And trust me, unless the boy they fall in love with is a 108 year old vampire your girls won't dream about getting married young and having children.
