breaking dawn March 13, 2010 Mrs. A. Ballinger (wales, england) I bought this book for my grandaughter's birthday, and she didn't put it down untill she finished it she said it was brilliant!
Absolutely fantastic March 13, 2010 Abigail Ferrer (Barry, Wales UK) This final book in the twilight saga was fantastic. I could picture every scene in the book as though it was coming to life as i was reading it. Stephanie Meyer is a genius and this saga is the best i have read in a long time. What a way to end it.
Good, but rushed and unbelievable March 11, 2010 D. Markham (UK) I never found this saga particularly well written or believable in any way, but they were still enjoyable. I also found this last instalment enjoyable, but it was totally rushed and the characters seemed to lose a lot of their charm and personality. Bella goes from being well, Bella, to almost a side character during the middle of the book! Events seemed to just go on around her when she was pregnant. (Which I don't think should be possible...Edward being a vampire and all =.= seems a bit too unrealistic) and if Carlisle already KNEW this could happen...WHY DIDN"T HE TELL THEM FIRST?! Edward also goes from being calm/controlled Edward to sappy, suicidal and just annoying Edward =.= At least Jacob stayed true to his character, until everything was all too quickly resolved after he imprints on Nessie....Bella's child. I know I am not the only one who thinks this was just Meyer taking the easy way out to stop the love triangle between Bella, Jacob and Edward. I also found it a tad sick...like....he loved Bella but then just suddenly doesn't anymore and loves a baby instead.
I didn't really like Bella's dramatic character change from human to vampire. Nobody's personality should change that much...I mean I know she's a different species, but she just changed so much that it wasn't her anymore. I also found that the Cullens, apart from Edward, were fairly absent from the story line, apart from occasionally Rosalie who was there just to play mother to Bella's kid!
This brings me to the last point that annoyed me the most: big gathering of vampires that took chapters upon chapters to assemble vs. Volturi and witnesses. I was expecting some fighting, some action or at least some tension! But no; the tension was that of a tea party =.= They had a little chat, and Jane tried to launch her telepathic death mojo on them....but nothing happens because Bella's power 'conveniently' allows her to shield all of the party from her attacks =.= The volturi are then like...oh no, why isn't it working, more talking, Nessie touches Aro and he decides that they're all telling the truth and they pack up and go home, and they all live happily ever after! I mean...Puh-lease! I wanted a happy ending, but not one this...this convenient!!!
