    Breaking Dawn ~ It's finally out.

    This is a "from what you've read so far" thread. Or hell if you're like one of my friend's who has read it already, etc.

    I'm up to page 136 or something and I got the book last night. I honestly am shocked. We all know they get married and stuff but omg the honey moon. I know I'm excited to read the rest.


    :T If you MUST write your spoilers, put it in white text.

    It's well, lets see. Yeah I read it in Book two 'Jacob'. I'm almost finished with Jacob, almost to Bella.

    Yeah, heh. Sorry, it talks about it in like the three chapter in Book Two Jacob... I think...

    I Agree, she rushed everything to quickly...
    She gets married and then she get pregnant.. way to fast. And then like a few weeks later, then things SPOILER killing her.... D:{END SPOILER]

    I just finished it.. OMG so cute yet good. People were saying how bad of a role model Bella is being in the book. Spoiler You know, being pregnant at 18? XDD Spoiler end.

    Over all it was pretty good book. I wished for more action though.
    Spoiler 2 it's from Book 3 Bella's view and like the 32nd chapter I guess. They do kill someone. It's not any of the Cullens. Spoiler end.

    They introduced a LOT of characters. >.> It gets a tad confusing. Semi-spoiler? I don't know? xD I have to re-read one of the chapters again but why was Edward made at Bella in the water scene? O_O End of Semi Spoiler xD

    Omgz, it's hard to predict this book...
    [SPOILERS]These are somewhat spoilers...like I thought that bella was going to die giving birth to the fetus... or when Jacob found out that Bella had a baby I thought he was going to go back, tell bella she was gonna get killed if she didn't give up the baby... it's so hard... >.<[END SPOILERS]

    The book keeps you on your toes... D:

    I like it so far...Though...

    [Spoilers] I was upset when she got pregant, I wasn't expecting it. And then I don't like Jacob's book that much. I think that Bella should have waited...I mean....A lot of stuff irritated me. [/Spoilers]​

    Agreed.

    [SPOILERS]If they knew they could reproduce then why didn't Edward just tell her no. She could get pregnant? And then the moment she finds out, boom, she want to keep the baby. And there freaking out because they know whats going to happen... somewhat.
    But Alice can't read the future around Bella and her baby.... and it's somehow connect to Jacob...

    Spoilers for whole book, since I finished it.

    START SPOILER.
    First of all, I kind of called all of the stuff that happened in this book. xD I was positive that Bella wouldn't die during child birth, and the moment that Bella found out that she was knocked up, I knew Jake was going to imprint on her. I disliked Renesme's (sp?) name. :l I would always pronounce it the same as resume.

    The honeymoon and the whole we-can-do-it-all-night-long thing was a little... ._. But meh.

    Bella is an amazing vampire. I thought she'd get arrogant and annoying, like Charlie in Flowers for Algernon (minus the whole defecation on himself afterwards), but she was good. Cool power, too.

    I have to say, though, Alice will forever remain my favorite. 732 is the most pwnage packed into one page I've ever seen.

    END SPOILER.

    Overall, I thought the book was great. Not a let down, like Deathly Hallows.

    The book gets boring for a while, shortly after Bella's second part comes. About fifty pages in it's just about them being happy, for, like, 200 pages. But it's still mildly interesting.

    Well, I see that she's been.. uh yeah. But it like, kinda difficult to picture Bella as one. It was difficult thinking about what she looked like before.. Which is weird.. D: I suck at these. xD

    I just finished this one, and i really liked it.

    Spoilers

    I was a bit suprised, only a bit, when jacob imprented on renesmee, because it got me thinking, like, what would their kid be like? And i loved how alice came and saved the day at the end.

    End spoilers

    I'll probably read it again in a few weeks, just to make sure i didn't miss anything.

    I wasn't too fond of it.

    Here's some of what I liked:
    Jacob and Rosalie bothering each other, mainly "You. Got. Food. In. My. Hair."

    Bella being a vampire

    Renesmee in herself

    The fact that Edward was a father

    The weddng

    Emmett in general

    Here's some of what I didn't like:
    The fact that Bella got pregnant when Stephanie Meyer specifically said that vampires COULDN'T reproduce

    The fact that they named their daughter RENESMEE CARLIE CULLEN!! Seriously, Edward is from the early 1900's! Couldn't he think of a prettier name to go with Cullen?! Renesmee sounds so ghetto and un-Cullen-ish!

    And finally, the fact that Bella and Edward were going at it for about 3/4 of the book. I mean, it's okay on their wedding night (kinda hot to think of Edward skinny-dipping...) but every few pages they were at it! It was like:


    Person 1: Hey, what's going on?
    Person 2: Bella and Edward are having sex.

    Five minutes later:

    Person 1: What's going on now?
    Person 2: They're having more sex

    15 minutes later

    Person 1: So...
    Person 2: It's the same thing I've been telling you.


    Seriously, it got a little awkward.

    All I can say is:
    SPOILER:


    JACOB WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU!?! YOU ARE A FREAK FOR IMPRINTING ON RENESMEE!

    END SPOILER.

    I'm only on page 437 right now, but I'm planning to finish soon. My sister and I are flipping back and forth since we only got one copy. But I must say that the release party was a blast! ^^ Oh yeah, and I agree about the anti-Cullen-ness of the baby's name, Flamedancer.
