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.

 Much better than Eclipse... October 12, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I like books 1 & 2, didn't like Eclipse too well.
*** Spoilers***
I thought Meyer did an excellent job of tying up loose ends in Breaking Dawn. There are a few things that bothered me...I did not like Jake imprinting on the baby, although I saw it coming as the book progressed. Why not Leah?? Couldn't he just want to protect Nessie because she is half human, that half being from the woman he loved? I also hated the name Reneesme...please?! And i did feel some compassion for Rose..
For those that love the other books, I don't think you will be disappointed. If you were barely holding on with Eclipse, then some of what goes down in this installment will probably have you rolling your eyes..a LOT.

Good book, not as good as the first three, but enjoyable. It wraps the story on a happy note, despite a few inconsistencies, and leaves the door open for a book 5 if need be.
Having said that, there are a number of reviews bashing Stephanie Meyers for missing a chance to teach a lesson. Not all stories need to set an example. In fact, counter examples are just fine. Yes, it seems as if Bella lives happily ever after, married and pregnant at 18, a mother by 19, and no education in sight. However, Bella's story cries out for discussion. Anyone missing that has either lost an incredible opportunity or (perish the thought!) is just reading the book for enjoyment!
Additionally, fantasy, particularly urban fantasy gets pretty dark, and Meyers, knowing her audience is mainly in their teens, toes the line. Other reviewers seemed uncomfortable with the possessiveness of Edward and the way Jacob seems to take some liberties that he should not, but read some Anne Rice, Laurell Hamilton, or Kelley Armstrong. Meyers is staying true to genre, just with a lighter hand.
Get Over It October 11, 2008

Ok so my sissy got me hooked on the twilight series and I am so in love with them. When I was going to buy the 4th book I was reading the reviews and was very disappointed when everyone was bashing the book as terrible. It is in no way terrible it is awesome! It was how it was suppose to end a true happy ending. People say that Bella wasn't suppose to get everything that she wanted (handsome husband, child, best friend, money, immortal,beauty, great sex, etc.) that life isn't that way but people, remember that this is FICTION as well as a YOUNG ADULT series. Would we really have wanted to see something bad happen to Bella, Edward, Jacob, the Cullens? The answer is NO. OH and give it a rest with the literary BS that some people are talking about like plot, character development, etc. GET OVER YOURSELF! If you want literary masterpieces then read the classics and steer away from Young Adult sections. This is an amazing book with great resolution at the end. A true twilight fan will love that all is well in the vampire world. Don't let the other crappy reviews taint your opinion. Yes the book is sappy and all matters are resolved a true fairy-tale ending.
 Disappointed October 11, 2008

I was very disappointed at this book, looking at the other 3 previous books. Everything was very expected and it was all obvious. Pregnant part was the only unusual part because i didn't know that it'll come so early in the book.
I don't want to write all the details but the book disappointed me.. I thought Stephenie could've wrote a much better story.
