Breaking Dawn is the 4th book in the Twilight Saga. There is Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, and Breaking Dawn.
Breaking Dawn by Stephenie Meyer is about the continuous conflicts between a vampire, Edward and a mortal girl, Bella.
Edward and Bella are deeply in love as they leave high school and find a college where they both can attend. When they are in Bella’s room together, Edward pulls out a ring and proposes passionately and, Bella agrees to marry him since, they’re out of high school (Edward’s one condition to marriage). As you can see, they’ve talked about this before but, Bella thought it would be a much later time before the get married. At the wedding that Alice, Edward’s sister, plans, Bella flows down the stairs in a white, fluffy satin dress. After the wedding, Edward and Bella leave for a honeymoon to an island owned by Edward’s mom, Esme. The island is called Isle Esme. During the trip, Edward and Bella have a great time! At the island, they hear the beautiful crashing waves, smell the cool, fresh sea air, and see only what they want to see, each other.
They come back early because Edward and Bella find out that, Bella is pregnant!! I know, unbelievably hectic!! When they arrive, Edward’s family protects her from everyone including her own dad. But, Jacob (the werewolf) is allowed to visit her. Jacob finds out that Bella is pregnant and is so shocked because, he is in love with her. (Too bad she’s not in love with him, she’s in love with EDWARD.) I mean, who isn’t? Anyways, while Bella is pregnant with her baby, Jacob and two other werewolves help guard Edward’s house (where Bella is staying while her pregnancy). When the time comes, Bella is ready to have her baby! But, when she’s ready, Edward’s dad, the doctor and vampire, is gone hunting!! Edward and Jacob, I know two guys, help her get her baby out. The baby is a half immortal half mortal so, it is huge in her stomach. When they try to get the baby out, it bites it’s way through Bella’s stomach and comes out. (ehhh)
It’s a girl. Right after Bella gave birth to her, Edward injected venom in the heart to turn her into a vampire. Bella lay where she is after giving birth to her, for two to three days straight to restart her life as a vampire. When she awakes, she cannot see her baby, Renesemee, yet because Renesemee still has blood in her. If Bella cannot control herself, Renesemee might get her blood sucked. So, in order to see her baby, she must hunt first. On her first hunt, she is alone with Edward. She first hunts a mountain lion, then a group of elk. When her thirst is under control, they go back to see their baby, Renesemee. When they arrive, Bella carries Renesemee and is so thrilled to see her. But, to everyone else other than the werewolves and Edward’s family, Renesemee is adopted. Also, some vampires have special abilities. Edward can read minds, Alice can see the future and Edward’s brother, Jasper can control and sooth the emotions of others. However, Bella’s ability is a little different. She can protect people from other’s special abilities. Also, Renesmee can show people what she is thinking from the touch of her palm.
When Bella and Jacob take a walk with Renesemee, a vampire is there and mistakens Renesemee for a vampire child. You see, in ‘vampire world’ it is illegal to have a immortal baby so, the baby will be executed if seen. Though, she is HALF immortal. The vampire, Irina told the Volturi in Italy to destroy Renesemee!! Alice sees in the future that the Volturi will come to Washington and try to kill Renesmee. They are all so worried and prepare Edward’s family and Jacob’s werewolf clan to fight. They all look for many people that are vampires to help as witnesses and come up with 20-23 people. But, however many people they have to fight, will they ever be able to stop the Volturi from……………their worst nightmare?, for the Volturi is the most powerful clan in the WORLD.
There are no possible words in the world than can explain my passion for this book!! I think it is the best out of the four but, others think it is too wrapped up around Renesemee. I wish the series would go on FOREVER, now that the series is over, I’m breathless. There’s nothing around to read….NOTHING! Though, I’m finding some pretty good books, nothing will be like my obsession for the Twilight Saga.
Stephenie Meyer really captures your heart, stings it, and then lets it go with the obsession of wanting more in this particular book.
But, think about it, If you could live forever……..what would you live for? At least you know what Edward and Bella CULLEN would live for, each other. =D
