Breaking Dawn by Stephenie Meyer, 4 1/2

Book description: "New York Times"-bestselling author Meyer returns to her teen vampire Twilight saga with this much-anticipated fourth book in the series. In this riveting novel, questions will be answered and the fate of Bella and Edward will be revealed.

Review: Breaking Dawn is the forth book in the Twilight series and the final one narrated by Bella. I seem to be in the minority here but I actually enjoyed this one a lot. I was expecting a nearly 800 page book of Bella whining until Edward turned her into a vampire. Sure, the plot here is a little odd and kind of wrong but the whole premise of the series is a little bit wrong so it didn’t bother me. I greatly prefer it to what I was expecting to happen. This book is told in three parts, the first and third are narrated by Bella and the second is narrated by Jacob. The first part was my favorite in the book but I also enjoyed Jacob’s pov. The third part of the novel did what it had to do. It gave Edward and Bella their happy ending and left enough material for future books in the series. Stephanie Meyer still remains one of the very few authors I will automatically buy in hardcover.
