    This article is amazing, and I've also written an article on Breaking Dawn, (Breaking Dawn: What the hell?) and in fact, both this article and the book are, well, hilarious.
    The book's hilarious because, well, what the hell was it?
    The article is because it explains how hilarious the book was.
    Good job on the great review, and ugh, the book was......you'd have to read mine to understand the fifteen paragraph disappointment. Ugh.

    I agree with this article as well. It felt like she avoided everything that should've caused a conflict and instead filled the book with meaningless little problems that were just there to make the book lengthier instead of better. I was even hoping for some sort of epic battle scene with the Volturi at the end - you know, something to make me chew on my nails until the book was finished. But [i]that[/i] didn't even happen. To me it felt like there was no climax at all, or if there was, I couldn't find it. Jacob's POV was a nice touch, but other than that, I was severely disappointed.

    i couldn't agree with you more. Everything just turned out to be perfect. I mean by the time I got to Jacobs point of view I was extremely relieved. The book did have its moments though, such as Emmets snide comments and Jake's and Rosalie's food fight :D Although I can't wait for Midnight Sun :D

    I found Breaking Dawn to be a good book but I felt it lacked what the other three had. Breaking Dawn had to be my third favorite book in the saga. I was shocked that Bella got pregnant. Im felt like Stephanie started the book but had no idea how to continue or finish the book.=/

    To Crepusculum, I couldn't agree more. I was disappointed with the one death as well.

    To the girl below me... I don't know what you're talking about... they don't break up.

    The only thing that gripped me (even remotely) about the Twilight series was the plot-after all, Meyer's writing style left rather a lot to be desired (in my opinion). But this book's plot was so devoid of action.
    I completely agree with you. It was far too [i]convenient[/i]. I understand that it's her book and everything-but seriously, could she put in more scapegoats? And seriously-them talking it out with the Volturi at the end? Ridiculous.
    There were so many opportunities with this plot. I felt somewhat disappointed. I hope she likes it, at least.
    And I was kind of angry that the only person to die was Irina, who nobody really cared about. That may seem weird-but a vampire book needs more death, you know??

    Yeah I know. I thought about that too. I can't believe I forgot to put that in the review. That really bothered me as well. =[ Oh well. It's her book, she can do what she wants I guess.

    I haven't gotten completely through Breaking Dawn yet, but I know enough to form an opinion. The biggest thing that bugs me is that Bella got pregnant. From what Stephenie Meyer has told us through Twilight, New Moon, and Eclipse, it should be impossible. It doesn't matter if she's a human girl at all, Meyer said herself that vampires have no bodily fluids except for venom, so...Bella shouldn't be able to get pregnant! I'm right, aren't I?
