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.

 Where You Buy Your Books... September 8, 2008

...can tell alot about a person. If the main source for your literature is a place like, oh, let's say target/w*lma*rt, it's probably not literature at all. Bad books will rot the brain, but then again maybe the reason you read them is that your brain already is. God bless America, land of the free, home of the increasingly dumb.

I have read the entire Twilight saga. So have the other two girls in my office. Two of us think this was the best book of the saga while the other one liked Eclipse better. I still go back and reread sections of this book.
Not as bad as the reviews make it out to be. September 8, 2008

Okay so I made the mistake 2X's now of reading the reviews on here before purchasing the book. And I have to say that these reviews are extremely HARSH and not my opinion of this series at all.
I have whole heardly enjoyed this series, engrossing myself into these characters and wanting more. I don't see the litterary errors, nor do I see the inconsistancies that others speak of. I don't see the " whiney Bella " or the effect she is suppose to have on young girls. What I see is a STORY. And a good one at that, I see a town, world of vampires that are compassionate, forgiving, murderous, passionate, you name it.Being human emotions into the Vampire world.
This book was fascinating to me because we've waited to see if Bella would become the Forever Love of Edward, if she would be allowed to become a vampire herself. With mixed feelings on the subject. ANd I found that I couldn't turn the pages fast enough. I LOVED that she had become her forever being, I loved that was still insecure in her looks and being, ( arn't we all) I couldn't get enough of her learning her NEW abilities, and I just wanted more.
I am sad to see this series end, though I understand why it has, I think I'd love a few more stories. With more drama, and possiblilites. I did not beging this series until August of 2008. I have FLEW through these books, and I can't wait to see the motion picture. The trailers look FASCINATING!!!
SO over all ya'll, take these reviews with a grain of salt, read this series because you want to read a great "STORY" not because you are looking for "TRUE LIFE" in a vampire story. Play this movie in your head, become attached to these characters, because you see something of yourself or someone you KNOW in them. Don't take it so seriously, and just sit back and enjoy.
I promise you will NOT be disappointed...
Best series ever September 8, 2008

This is the best series ever. This book is a great conclusion of this series. I loved what Stephanie Meyer did with this book. She left it open for possible more, but also closure.
What a huge disappointment September 8, 2008

Almost from the beginning of Breaking Dawn, it was apparent that it would be nothing like the preceding three novels. I kept hoping some of the tone of the first three books would come back after the gruesome and disturbing pregnancy/birth sequence. As I heard elsewhere, the only part of this book at all like the rest was the narration from Jacob's perspective. Jacob remained essentially the same, except for his all too convenient plot line. I could not get past how radically different everyone and everything about this book was from the others. The first three books told the story from an almost sweet perspective despite what the stories were about. The protagonists were all likable, respectable people. In Breaking Dawn, all of them were turned into hardly likable characters. Are we really supposed to believe that Bella's father just quietly decided to accept all that he was asked to accept? It seems that Breaking Dawn went off in a direction it was not originally intended to go in. If this is not true, than a story was told with no clear way to end it. Breaking Dawn seems to have been an attempt to make a happy ending with all the complicated elements of this series too easily resolved, except for Bella's mother which remained, smartly, unresolved because expecting us to believe she would be okay with Bellas's fate would have been asking way too much of us.
