 Great story and characters, okay writer January 8, 2009
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book just closes the story perfectly...actually her last two books are my favorite b/c the story/plot and character build up is so great...but her writing did annoy me until I just plowed through it - b/c the story is that good, it was easy to read this within a day...just her writing style is not that great... not your Thomas Mann or Ayn Rand. But I would definitely pass it along to my daughters when they come of age.

Timely delivery despite the fact that the order was placed very close to the holiday. Needless to say the product was in new condition when it arrived. Another pleasant experience shopping on Amazon.
 Unimpressed January 8, 2009
Several other reviews say exactly what I would have written here. Her previous books were much more interesting and climatic...
 BREAKING DAWN WAS EXCELLENT!!! January 8, 2009

I personally thought that Breaking Dawn was excellent. Its even my favorite and I'm an older reader, so when I got hooked on the Twilight Saga- I was surprised. I think people should back off from Stephenie Meyer's back for her choice in plot. If anything, I see potential for working off from Breaking Dawn--I really really hope she does. She's a brilliant writer who creates brilliant plots.
Unrealistic Fairy Tale, Not Fable Ending January 8, 2009
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Five members of the family read this book (including four middle school/high school members) and overall it receives an average 2 rating (the first three all were ranked 5 stars). Honestly, as one reviewer already said, it felt like someone completely different wrote this book. I think that the more mature viewpoint of Edward and Bella (and baby), might have made more sense if a fourth book had transitioned their story (and Jacob's involvement in the triangle)to a fifth. Additionally, the conflict with the other vampires, which had been more of a subplot before, needed another book to transition to the major plot. Essentially, the first three books were fantasy/romance novels; this one read more like a fantasy/action adventure with a romance undertone. Jacob is the only character that seemed consistent with the past for most of the book (though his personality was a bit watered-down with the imprint issue) and the change in Bella's father was a major disappointment. At the end, we all found ourselves longing for a less "happily-ever-after" and a more "realistically-ever-after" ending.
