TW: DEATH IRL / WAY TOO MUCH INFORMATION ABOUT MY PERSONAL LIFE

My grandpa was at the hospital last Wednesday. He died at 3:00 a.m. on Thursday. I was home when it all happened. My mom came home an hour later and was talking on the phone with my uncle telling him what happened. I was in my bedroom reading the chapters were Bella gives birth and her death and transformation. Those chapters are gory and dark and twisted. And I was reading them as my mom was outside my bedroom explaining how my grandpa died. It was... an experience, to say the least. A very fucked up one.


Anyways, this is the book where people suddenly stopped acting like themselves.
Bella never wanted children, now she loves her fetus. Jacob hated Edward, now he's on his side.


I particularly loved how Rosalie was so protective and was 100% on Bella's side. 

And I'm glad things didn't go down like in the movie.
I hate reading battle scenes. They're always boring. So it's great that there wasn't a battle here.
