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.

 iffy. September 5, 2008
I absolutely LOVED the first three books in the Twilight Saga (Twilight, New Moon and Eclipse) but unfortunately, I thought that Breaking Dawn did not reach the potential I was personally hoping for. I do not agree with her having a baby, once i realized she was pregnant it ruined the book for me. I read the whole series in less than a week, the first three books it was impossible to put down but with Breaking Dawn it was completely possible. I'm not saying it was a terrible book, I'm saying that i hoped for so much more out of Stephenie Meyer.
 EXCELLENT!! September 5, 2008
Was a little bummed because I thought by pre-ordering I would have it delivered around the same time it was for sale in the stores. My co-workers had theirs bought and read by the time I received mine. ;( Otherwise, AWESOME BOOK!!
Unbelievable September 5, 2008

I couldn't be more pleased with how Stephenie Meyer wrapped up the series. In fact I would have been crushed if it ended any other way. I didn't even hear of the Twilight series until Breaking Dawn came out and then I read all four of them in a week and a half. Of course this could be because it's marketed to young adults and I'm 25. Don't let the age group mislead you. I gave the first book to my aunt (who's 50) immediately after I finished and we were both obsessed. Well I'm done now and I'm still obsessed. I feel like a weirdo Trekkie fan or something. That's how good these books are!

This book and the first book are my faviorate of the 4 Stephanie Meyer Series. I like her style of writing and the story has a quality all its own. Really all the books are neat and I found that reading them in sequence 1-4 was the best way to go. I like things in the other two books as well. And the stories go together in a fun way.
All around a fun read. There are parts I would say are not suitable for younger audiances. I am glad that Stephanie chose to show good moral standards as the charicters waited until marriage for "knowing" each other. However I would rate the 4th book PG13 because of married intimacy. She isn't too explicit though and I appreciated that.
If you are not the author of this book... then stop taking it so personally!!!! September 5, 2008

Before I started reading the last book of the Twilight serious, I had heard some pretty awful things about this book. For awhile I was discourage to read it because of the horrible things that I had heard. But let me say that all the things that I heard were completely stupid and just wrong.
The author clearly states that Bella is older than her years, that she is mature and that her mother thinks that she was born in another time period. Everything Bella becomes and is, fits perfectly with the story. I truly enjoyed the story and for anyone that is debating whether they should not read it because of the reviews, all I have to say is that what you believe and what someone else believes may be totally different. SO PLEASE read the book for YOU!
Great story and series and I'm sad that it had to end!
