So I'm wondering, about breaking dawn?

Question

so i've heard that not many people like the book? i want to know your opinion and why you did or didn't like it.

Answer 1

I did like aspects of it. It was amazingly written, don't get me wrong.

I just did NOT like the outcomes of this story...especially since it's the last one of its kind.

Quotes and things were the best part for me, besides that, I only liked certain details.

*Spoilers Below!*

I did NOT like:

-Bella getting pregnant, I just didn't like the idea. Maybe it's personal views, but I don't know, I just didn't like that at all.

-For some strange sadistic part of me, I didn't want Jacob to

automatically stop loving Bella in that lovey-dovey jealousy way. I think it's just wrong that the little child could change his views completely.

-The whole Volturi buisness getting involved; it had no point, and it just added a long unnecesary space until the end.

-That, even though I hate the fact of Nessie, she should have been human and been raised with Charlie or something...not all attached and part vampire. And her power? Cool, but totally not realistic.

-Bella's power. This one is sort of indifferent for me though. It seems more sci-fi than all the other books.

-The fact that Jacobs POV did nothing but explain the pain Bella was in, and that he loved Bella...but then at the end his feelings changed completely. What's the point in that?

-How desperate Bella was for Edward to sleep with her, and how she loved the thing that was living inside of her even though it was hurting her.

-Jasper and Alice leaving and then giving Bella almost pointless clues.

-I didn't like that Rosalie just didn't care about Bella; just the baby. Then all of a sudden, after the baby was born, she was like all buddy-buddy with Bella. That makes no sense.

-My favorite Cullen's only mentioned once and a while.

-Leah and Seth never imprinted. Especially Leah, I have a soft spot for her for some reason.

-The volturi just adding more uneccesary conflict into the book to fill up space.

-This fact especially I hate...Jacob imprinting on Nessie! That's just so wrong. Especially since he has the history with Bella. When Nessie grows up and Jacob changes from the overprotective parent (which, in and of itself is disturbing if you think about it.) to the love-pair, what does he explain? Something like: "Oh yeah, Honey, I had a thing for your Mom, I was madly in love with her and even though I wanted to kill you because you were hurting her, and besides the fact that your Dad wanted me to do it with your Mom so you could be half mine and destroy the vampire genes, I still love you!"

That is SICK.

I DID like:

-Seth Clearwater and his befriending of the vampires. He has to be my favorite character. What a cutie!

-Leah being a werewolf. I think it fits, I mean, she's been so alone for so long.

-That they didn't have Billy and the Quillettes boring legends and myths in almost every chapter like they used to.

-Learning to love the different covens. Understand them, also. Plus the index in the back of the book.

-Charlie finding (somewhat, atleast) about their secrets.  

-That Bella changed into a vampire.

-How we got to know Jacob a little better.

-Emmett's jokes, and the arm-wrestling scene. Oh, and Bella playing with her new abilities and looks.  

-Rosalie being by Bella's side when the baby was hurting her, even if it was just for the baby.

-The cottage.

-Some others, I'm sure, but I can't remember at the moment.

I'm sorry, I still love the series and am ABSOLUTELY and utterly obbsessed, but this one was very dissapointing.
