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.

 Breaking Dawn Review September 6, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I loved this book. It went high beyond my expectations. In some series the first book is always the best. Not in this case, Breaking Dawn was funny, sincere, and exciting to the last word. There are unexpected twists that I could not have come up with in my wildest dreams which keep readers on the edge of the seat during the entire book. This was for me an immensely satisfying read.
 A little rushed.. September 6, 2008

After reading the previous books I couldn't wait to read Breaking Dawn. Overall, it was a very good read. The story was captivating. I loved how the characters developed and how the other vampires were incorporated into the story. The only thing I didn't like is that the story in parts seemed a little rushed and the ending was somewhat anti-climatic for all the build up. If not for that I would give it 5 stars.

 A Good Saga That Tripped Before The Finish Line September 6, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I own and have read all the books in the Twilight saga and have this to say: Let's just pretend it was a trilogy. Out of all the books, Breaking Dawn disappointed me with how Stephenie Meyer dealt with her characters.
Twilight was an amazing book thats descriptions made people believe they were there. I thought what Meyer did was very very good, and also hard to duplicate. New Moon proved that hypothesis for me, as I was happy that she gave other characters time to grow a little bit before getting Edward back in the story. Eclipse was the one book I seriously considered burning as I thought the love triangle idea was so overdone and was sad Meyer used it in such a lame way.
I had low expectations for Breaking Dawn to begin with and it was more then I imagined it to be, but it was nowhere near my opinion for Twilight. All the pre-conceived notions that Meyer let us make were blown out of the water. It was an utter crackfic.
I didn't like it but I don't hate it. I also do NOT recommend this book to ANYONE.
unbelievable - in a good way September 6, 2008

Going into this one, I couldn't imagine how it could end on any kind of a good note. No matter which way it went, I thought our heros would take an unacceptable loss. I guess that's why I'm not a writer! Every chapter was a surprise, and it's amazing how it works out. Stephanie brought us down to the edge of the chasm of loss, and then gave us the fruits of sacrafice. This is the capstone of the series. Very Well Done.
