Breaking Dawn - Stephenie Meyer

Thursday, January 29, 2009

Umm... Holy CROW!!!

I do not know where to begin with this one. Twilight started out so well (not), and as bad as i keep saying it is it's also still very addictive. But then it went downhill and then came Breaking Dawn. I'm not sure whether i like this one or not.

I hate Bella in it. And I'm not sure what Meyer was trying to do. She started Twilight by shattering all the Vampire myths - no garlic, sun, stabbing and created her own ones to suit her story. Which is fine, I will ignore the sparkling vampires for a minute.

But in BD she's just shattered everything she wrote before. Edward is fathering a baby? Bella drinks and enjoys human blood while still human? She fainted in Twilight remember. Then she doesn't not having to go through all the bloodlust once she's a vampire?

And Bella? The first part from Bella's point of view was good, so was Jacobs. But the third part once she becomes a vampire was where Bella went into selfish Bitch mode. Poor Jacob. He had no one around to slap some sense into him. And poor Edward also. He had no one to tell him he's been around long enough to not behave like a jackass for Bella. Being in love doesn't mean you lose a sense of yourself or become an ass.

Well, atleast there were some surprises - Renesmee and all that drama before she was born (ok, it was so lame that i was surprised) ; Edward completely falling apart.
The end was just too predictable though.

Either way, i'm just happy this is over now. Can you tell i'm tired of writing these reviews?
