Breaking Dawn…
I just finished reading Eclipse for the second time before diving into Breaking Dawn. My question is: What adventures lie in wait for me in those precious pages?
It’s kind of funny how all this started. I was in Barnes and Noble one day, and saw Twilight. I’d heard on a message board somewhere that it was a good book. So, I picked it up and thought, what the hell, I’ll try it. I couldn’t put it down. It was so addicting, I was amazed at how much I loved it. I read the book in two days and was delighted to discover there was a second book, and a third book coming out shortly. So I bought New Moon later that week. I cried. It was so heart wrenching for me to read. In Twilight, I became an Edward fan. I fell in love with their love, if that makes any sense. I read it, and thought ahhh, that’s the kind of earth-shattering love I’m waiting for. Then in New Moon, I was devastated to learn that he left her. Stephenie wrote it in such a way that makes you go on Bella’s journey with her, like you’re in her mind. So I felt heart broken when Edward left. Then I bought Eclipse as soon as it was available. I didn’t like it as much as Twilight, but it was still captivating. I felt sad when she broke Jacob’s heart, but being an Edward fan, I wasn’t as heart broken as Bella was.
I discovered that there was going to be a final book, and I was looking very forward to it. I was in line at the bookstore before midnight and waited in line for my turn to buy Breaking Dawn. I got home shortly after 12:30, maybe closer to 1 this morning. I should have started re-reading the series a day earlier, as I just finished reading Eclipse. I’ve read Twilight and New Moon three times each, Eclipse twice. I know that’s not as much as other fans, but that doesn’t mean I love the books any less. I suppose I should get to sleep, as I’ve been awae for nearly 24 hours now, but even as my eyes are exhausted, I want to open Breaking Dawn and start. I’m afraid to open the book to peek at how many pages there are. I don’t want to accidently read anything from the ending. I should sleep, but I want to read.
Nevertheless, my thoughts on the book will be posted as soon as I read it. I’m excited, and I know I sound like a total nerd, but I don’t care. Long live Edward and Bella

Exactly. It’s wonderful how books do bring people together. You can have nothing in common with the others, except that you love it.
Good luck with Breaking Dawn. It’s very intense.
I finally finished Breaking Dawn last night.. I had about ten pages left and my girlfriend said she wouldnt reply to my txts until i finished. lol. it took me way too long to read it, because i’ve been busy. But the book is AWESOME. =]
