“Let me amend one my comment here. Of course, the bashing will continue, we are all entitled to our opinions including those that suddenly hate me for stating mine. Let me just say I still respect Stephenie Meyer as a writer, she does do an excellent job at bringing you into her world. I still like the series, I'll probably read it again in the future. I just don't happen to like this book so much and I HAD to read it to know that. That being said I wouldn't discourage others from reading it if they have read the other three. You have to finish the series and form your opinion. And now my original review:
Ever since I started reading this series I felt kinda childish for liking it. I mean it is what it is...YA Fiction. However, no matter how immature I found most of it, I was addicted. I got sucked into Bella's world and could not escape. I completely understood the negative comments, though. Well now with Breaking Dawn I'm just downright embarrassed. Sure we all want a happy ending love story, but come on...life is not perfect, choices have consequences, and EVERYONE doesn't always live happily ever after. Yes, I understand it's a fantasy book, but everything just came out too perfect.
**SPOILER FOLLOWS**
Also, I do not like being able to predict the books I read. I like to be surprised so when I knew the "baby" would be okay and then when I knew Jacob would imprint on it and then they both happened, it was just disappointing. So finally when there was bound to be battle I was getting somewhat excited again and then...BAM!! Nothing. All that work to lead up to this enormous battle and it doesn't even happen. Wow.”
