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.
Amazon.com Review:
Great love stories thrive on sacrifice. Throughout The Twilight Saga (Twilight, New Moon, and Eclipse), Stephenie Meyer has emulated great love stories--Romeo and Juliet, Wuthering Heights--with the fated, yet perpetually doomed love of Bella (the human girl) and Edward (the vampire who feeds on animals instead of humans). In Breaking Dawn, the fourth and final installment in the series, Bella’s story plays out in some unexpected ways. The ongoing conflicts that made this series so compelling--a human girl in love with a vampire, a werewolf in love with a human girl, the generations-long feud between werewolves and vampires--resolve pretty quickly, apparently so that Meyer could focus on Bella’s latest opportunity for self-sacrifice: giving her life for someone she loves even more than Edward. How close she comes to actually making that sacrifice is questionable, which is a big shift from the earlier books. Even though you knew Bella would make it through somehow, the threats to her life, and to her relationship with Edward, had previously always felt real. It’s as if Meyer was afraid of hurting her characters too much, which is unfortunate, because the pain Bella suffered at losing Edward in New Moon, and the pain Jacob suffered at losing Bella again and again, are the fire and the heart that drive the whole series. Diehard fans will stick with Bella, Edward, and Jacob for as many twists and turns as possible, but after most of the characters get what they want with little sacrifice, some readers may have a harder time caring what happens next.

I really enjoyed the book, the story line and the ending. I was incredibly sad when it was over and I had to face the fact that the series was finished - fingers crossed that there will be more B&E.

There is no way this review can go on without major spoilers. So here is my warning.
I dont want to go so far as to say I LOVED reading the Twilight series. It was close enough. I really, really enjoyed them, but I knew they were far from perfect. Not even close, in fact. But they did have their degrees of entertainment.
Though flawed, the other 3 novels through away every Vampire cliché known to man. It irked my a bit, but I got over it, because I fell in love with the ... Read More

What to say about BD? I did not like the book as much as the first three. My daughter (15) recommended it since ½ of her school mates were reading it. She knew I was searching for a book that would catch my interest. I read Twilight in two days and it left me wanting more, thus I checked out New Moon at the library. Again I craved for more; then I moved to Eclipse.
Breaking Dawn was a disappointment. I like the fact that the major characters got a happy ending, but where is the fight ... Read More

I am almost hesitant to write a review for this considering how many people are voting positive reviews as "not helpful" just because they don't like the book. Therefore I will keep the details to a minimum. Just read the book and formulate your own opinion. There were a few things that I really did not like. A few things that I really liked.
She should write more about the Pack. Their group dynamic has always intrigued me, and the chapters from Jacobs POV were my favorite parts in this ... Read More
