Breaking dawn is a book written by Stephenie Meyer. It is so far the last book in the Twilight
series.
Breaking dawn is about a woman, Bella Swan who falls in love with a
vampire, Edward Cullen. In this book, Bella Swan fights against the environment
around her which is forcing her not to have a baby with Edward who she is in
love with. Let alone have a baby, the environment around her doesn’t even want
her to marry the guy she loves.
This book shows that one should never lose hope no matter
how bad the situation is. In the beginning of this book, I was very confused
about what was going on as I hadn’t read the first three books. In the middle
of the book, everything started making sense and the more I read the more it
made sense. When I realized what was happening in the book, I got very emotional
as usual whenever I read books. Whenever there was something sad or depressing
going on I would start crying and not even realize till my mom would ask what
was wrong. I still remember the time Bella was giving birth to a half
vampire-half human child and it could have killed her if Edward wouldn’t have
turned her into a vampire at the right moment. It was very painful for her, and
I could tell that by the powerful words and also by the tears just running down
my face.
I like the way Stephenie Meyer has a unique power for every
character in the story, for example, Edward Cullen can read minds and Bella
Swan who later on becomes Bella Cullen, becomes a shield after turning into a
vampire. A person who is a shield can
protect their people by expanding the shield to as far as possible. Any weapons
used on the people inside the shield wouldn’t work because it bounces of the
shield as soon as it touches it. No one can read their minds. Not even Edward Cullen could read his own
wife’s mind. The shield can have holes in it but you need to know exactly where
the holes are in order to break the shield. Stephenie Meyer did a lot of
foreshadowing in this book. I tried to predict the future at times but it
wouldn’t always turn out like I expected it to. I think the author uses an
equal amount of dialogue and narration, which is quite impressive to me because
it is very hard to balance both at the same time. I personally can’t do that.
This book is divided into chapters but it is also divided
into books. There are four books in a book. The book first talks and explains a
little about “Twilight”, the first book in the series. Then, the book talks
about “New Moon” which is the second book. Then, the third book “Eclipse.” At
last, “Breaking Dawn” which is the book I read. I like the way the book is
divided into really long chapters. I also really like the way the author first
briefly talks about the first three books then starts the real book story so
you’re not completely lost. You know what’s going on.
One of the reasons why I picked up this book was because it
is the “International Number One Bestseller.” Another reason why I picked it up
was because of its cover. It sort of caught my eye and I really wanted to read
it from a long time. The reason the cover caught my eye was because it had
chess on it and I had just learned chess when I saw that book so I was tempted
to read it. The book has many different covers but I only found the one with
the chess game on it and I liked it.
