Breaking Dawn for youngsters -Teenagers March 11, 2010 P. Mckenzie Jones (Fl.) 0 out of 7 found this review helpful
I like a good Vampire tale, to be honest with you I am fanatic about Vampire anything. So recently I decided to watch the first 2 movies of the Twilight Series and then read the books of the other two, Eclipse and Breaking Dawn. Because of all the bashing of Breaking Dawn, I decided to get it at the library(didnt want to waste my money). Breaking Dawn didn't keep my attention as the other books. I found, I kept skipping the pages to get back to stuff about Edward and Bella, which is what I am interested in. The non Bella /Edwards parts of the book , just didnt seem to do much for me. Overall I found the book 4 to be really for Teenagers and found most of it to be really hilarious.
The whole series is for the 14-17 yrs old really, because no adult experience reader could really take this kind of writing seriously. I dont see why an adult reader would bash the book. It really is for the young , weired and naive.
It is not like Ms Meyer is in the class of say a "Angela Knight". Now her books are what movies should be made of!
Anyway stop bashing Breaking Dawn, its not necessary. I am hoping the painful , scary pregnancy and the paranormal birth of the baby chapters, was scary enough to help prevent teenage pregnancy.
I must admit, I was looking so forward to more mature juicy stuff between Edward and Bella since they got married and all and are both Vampires. But alas, only silly , weird, funny crap, that teenagers love. Did I say the book was for Teenagers?

Truely Spectacular. March 10, 2010 0 out of 7 found this review helpful
When I began reading Twilight I started with the first book and read them all straight through. And, in my opinion, they were written beautifully. Breaking Dawn was no exception. I, too, was surprised by all the bad reviews. I took a moment to read some of them and found that, in my opinion, some of the situations in Breaking Dawn were taken in the wrong context. Too literally almost. First of all, it's a fantasy book about Vampires and Shape Shifters. While Stephanie Meyer makes it incredibly easy for society to wrap their heads around Bella's situation, I don't think it's fair to say the book is morally wrong. For example, Jacob does not fall in love with an infant. He sees Renesmee as his responsibility to protect and nurture until she decides he is her one and only. The only difference is that he already knows the outcome. It's not like Jacob is thinking about Renesmee in a phyisical way. And Meyer makes that very clear. In our society that part of Jacob's CULTURE would be deemed as perverted, but I think we can all agree that Bella is no longer living in a society like ours. Things just operate differently. There are other situations like that in Breaking Dawn that were misconstrued by some. Perhaps if the book was reread with more of an open mind it would make more sense and be a better experiance. I think the book was amazing, and that it was all perfectly tied together. With a happy ending as the icing on the cake.

The final instalment to the Twilight Saga is teriffic! In this book Bella and Edward are together for ever and ever. With a cute new character I would reccomend this book for anyone. I don't kno why people gave it such bad reviews.I couldn't put this book down.There isn't anything I can say that is bad about this book.
Loved It!!!! March 8, 2010 Mary (South Dakota United States) 1 out of 7 found this review helpful
I loved this book!!!! I believe that SM showed extreme genus when writing this book! I loved the Creativeness and imagination that SM has and her passion for the characters. I know there were a lot of people that did not like this book and everyone is entitled to their own opinion! But I enjoyed this book the most out of the whole series! I love the fact that SM went into the detail that she did. I know that a lot of people were upset about a lot of so people say "graphic" detailing in this novel, but in reality there is more "graphic" detailing on television! This book is again creative and very well imagined! The book is about Love, Friendship and most of all Family! The loyalty between people! I give SM 2 thumbs up for this book! Loved it! It was Awesome!!!!
