Wow, the amount of the new twilight related threads afre crazy! Thanks for the thread! Erm.. i did love this book, not quite as much as twilight, but it was a really lead on from new moon, and was very exciting at the end although some bits did slightly annoy me, theres some really memorable and funny bits that happen though! So overall my joint 2nd favourite book!  haha

I've almost finished this book now it's awesome! I won't give anything away about it but OMG i love it so much! Probably better than Twilight and defo better than New Moon. Emma i really cant agree with what you said on a different thread, i dont hate Jacob at all in this book, in fact i like him even more. Everything he does he does for bella and i know this will be an unpopular decision but i like Bella better with him than with Edward. I know she will never leave Edward tho  |

Oh no! You like Jacob/Bella, how could you? haha, joke, loads of people are Jacob and Bella fans, you'll be surprised I like they're friendship ill be honest  But nah, i love Edward way more, he is my fave character after all, so thats probably why ...i cant decide whether i like this book or new moon best though.. they're probably even with me.. hmm.. maybe this one, its less heartbreaking after all |

SPOILER ALERT!!! Again, i found this one more heartbreaking. I didnt really cry at New Moon at all but when Bella eventually realised that she was in love with jake but couldnt be with him i cried SO much! I loved the part where he said that if there was no magic in the world then she would be with him because they really were soul mates! She couldnt argue with that because it was the truth You know when you said there was a part you really didnt like emma? Was it when he kissed her the first time or after that? |

** SPOILERS ** Nah, it wasnt the first time he kissed her that bothered me, its when she begged him to kiss her towards the end, in the middle of the fight, dont get me wrong i understood why.. like knowing that she loved him and he loved her, i just knew how it probably hurt Edward and i felt so bad for him ...I do feel bad for Jacob also, especailly at the end because you can tell he loves bella, but they probably wont be together as the story is about Edward and Bella, and Stephenie has said that they're endgame before, i think somewhere im not 100% on that though... Im just wondering [kind of thinking out loud haha] now how Jacobs going to be involved in Breaking dawn, because at the end in the epilogue from him point of view, it seemed like he had ran away, after turning into a wolf? I wonder if he'll come back for the wedding, or if he'll imprint on someone in BD or if the love triangle will continue...  |

I kinda hope that he imprints. I get that it's gonna be E+B coz thats what the story's about. I want Jacob to be happy with someone too. I just hope if he does imprint it will be on someone he can love fully like Sam and Emily and not like the other one (I cant remember whether it's Quil or Embry) who imprints on Emily's 2 year old neice |

Yeah that was really weird! Its like.. what? haha Hopefully Jacob imprints on someone he can actually be with there and then, maybe Leah? Im not sure, there was some people saying it would be good if he imprinted on Angela- i could see that! haha I would like it if he did that, and so him and Bella can stay in contact, even if she does become a vampire, i hope they can stay friends, because new moon proves how great a friend he was to her, not so much eclipse.. but in new moon he sort of 'saved' her in both ways, it would be good if he got a good ending also, im sure he'll get one, after all i once also read that Stephenie said that he is her favourite character to write, and that everyone will get a happy ending So should be good! |

Yea Is breaking Dawn supposed to be the last book in the series? |

Post by emma23 on Jun 28, 2008 18:27:05 GMT
Yeah it is [apart from midnight sun, but thats basically twilight re-written]
however Stephenie did say shes going to have a break, but in a couple of years she might write more, but not from Bellas point of view, [though Edward and Bella will be in it] she said she'll write ones from other characters perspectives e.g.- one of the other Cullens like Alice, but all thats not for certain
I hope she does though!
