This is by far the worst book of the saga. It’s the

surprise pregnancy

trope for me. I hate that this was a plot point at all, much less

Jacob’s imprinting on Renesmee

. The book always feels disjointed and jarring as it pulled from conflict to conflict. I’d love to pretend that the saga ends with the Honeymoon, but Stephenie Meyer wants me stressed every time I reread this series. Edward has a soul, but Stephenie Meyer absolutely does not.

The most disappointing book of the Twilight Saga. We deserved better.

I hate that Stephanie Meyer had to push her Mormon ideals onto this book series. I mean it was there since the beginning but in Breaking Dawn is when it really goes off the rails.

Oh God. There are parts of this book that are enjoyable, but it is mostly a painful, unrewarding slog.
