RAHHHHH I FINISHED THE TWILIGHT SAGA
what a beautiful ending. kind of.
i need to say this book felt like 700 pages of fanfiction. now im not mad at that but..... sometimes it felt corny. like with the

pregnancy & the fact bella lowkey becomes a mary sue....
ok well shes not really a mary sue but. i hate the fact her adjustment period as a newborn was nonexistent!

anyways i loved 80% of this book. some parts felt corny, and i was mega pissed that there were 10 jacob chapters. tbh they weren't as bad ass i thought they were going to be, but when i saw "book two - jacob" ooooo my blood BOILED. anyways though the ending made me less annoyed at him but im sorry

imprinting on a fucking infant is so crazy what crack were u smoking meyer

also this book needed more alice im sorry. yeah i know her not being there is for a reason idc im a ride or die for my girl alice talk to the wall.
anyways this feels oddly poetic to finish on valentines day seeing as the cullen coven are all lovesick LOSERS!!! /lh
i enjoyed seeing

bella as a vampire

but some of this book did feel like pandering, and it broke my immersion at times. other than that though, this book was perfect. the ending with the

volturi

was a bit corny tho.... like yeah sure i

wanted a happy ending and would've been mad if it didn't happen but tbh i would've preferred that! it felt incredibly anti-climatic that alice somehow manages to find this random ass fuckin half immortal. girl bye

also my one other gripe was there was waaaay too much casual racism with the

other covens

. was painful to read points featuring certain people like

amun or the amazon vampires

..... meyer u needed some sensitivity readers on god
idk if im gonna read the other books related to twilight by meyer this year but im happy ive finished her main series! yay! 
i say this but in reality my hyperfixation is gonna go crazy now that i don't have any new content (yes i will be bingeing both movies tonight IF YOU SEE MY LETTERBOXD MIND UR OWN BUSINESS /lh)
ok bye <3

Amazing conclusion to the Twilight Saga. It was one hell of an emotional rollercoaster. Make sure to read the other three Twilight books first or this one will make no sense.

Bella and Edward have a kid, call her Renesmee and Jacob imprints on her. Also, Emmett arm wrestles newborn Bella Cullen and she wins.

There is quite a lot of swearing and also sex so if that sort of stuff makes you uncomfortable then don't read

This one is my favorite. It is big but so much is happening. Bella is still kind of a pain in the ass but it is bearable. Edward had is asshole moment but it was not really that important. Jacob, well... it's Jacob. He is still an asshole but, at the end, we like him better because we understand. 
A book this big has its lenghts but, oh well. The only thing i didn't really enjoy, is the part for Jacob's POV. It was interesting but too long for my liking. 

The wedding is nice, the pregancy is intense, the preparation to the battle/the battle itself is really cool. The only thing I always wanted more is scenes with Bella being a vampire. We have had more of it in the books than the movie but still.

The mentioned "sexual content" is more of a common conversation, and not actually descrptive. It's a fade-to-black type story.
