Author’s Note: To get credit for reading Breaking Dawn I decided to make some comparisons to the other books in the series. I am going to work on organization in this piece.
Breaking Dawn. A very apt name for the last of book of the Twilight saga. Because, as these books are ending a new life is beginning for Bella, the main character. There are a lot of things that are different about this book than the others.
The biggest difference in Breaking Dawn would probably be that it is divided up into three parts by the author. The first part is Bella’s account of her honeymoon. The second is her friend Jacob’s account of Bella’s pregnancy. And the last part is from Bella’s point of view again, this time describing the experience of being a vampire. That leads me to the next difference.
As I mentioned the last part is Bella’s view of being a vampire. In previous books Bella ha still been human, but in love with a vampire. Being a vampire causes some problems for Bella however. Firstly there is Bella’s dad, Charlie. Charlie doesn’t know that Bella becomes a vampire, and to tell him would put him at risk. But instead of leaving, like a rational person Bella want’s to stay and continue to see Charlie.
And the last, and probably most important difference, in terms of the plot, is that Bella has a baby. But not just any human baby, that would be boring. No Bella has a half vampire, half human baby courtesy of her vampire husband Edward. Disregarding the problems this baby causes with the vampire government she is amazing. She grows extremely fast and her mind matures even faster. So much so that by her 4th month of life she is as large as a small five year old and smarter than the average human.
Breaking Dawn. This book has to be my favorite of the entire Twilight saga. Though like the other three books it leaves me with a hunger for more it also has a satisfying ending. And although there are many differences in this book those are what make it the most interesting book in the series.
