Why does everyone hate "Breaking Dawn" ? I just started, and I'm not quite understanding...

lyssNjc7 wrote:The reason why I disliked Breaking Dawn so much is because I felt like the characterization was completely off. She had gone through a built such amazing characters and then either changed how they acted or completely disregarded them in the story. She had previously written Forever Dawn as the sequel to Twilight, and then went back and wrote New Moon and Eclipse. SM said that she didn't change a lot when it came to making "Forever Dawn" become "Breaking Dawn" and it becomes apparent. The other thing that I hated was Bella. I hated how she got everything she wanted. I hated how everybody got everything they wanted in the end. It felt like a cheesy fan fic, as someone else pointed out. No one lost. Everybody wins. It didn't feel realistic. I hope I'm not spoiling anything by saying all of this. I've tried to keep the comments general. |

I've just started Breaking Dawn and I'm not enjoying it as much as the others. It's not as much of a page turner as the others (in my opinon). I
seen that some of the actors have signed on for the first three movies...do you think they will combine some of Eclipse and Breaking Dawn and just finish it
off?
Personally that's what I would do....some of what is going on right now in Breaking Dawn is too much. (sorry so vague...I didnt' want to give anything away). |

Now I'll have to be cautious of what I get into reading from hers from now on. This is how BD should've been. It's fan fiction but I swear she writes like she was SM in disguised because the characterizations are so consistent with the first 3 books. http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4369058/1/Spiral_Static

Thank God NO! lol She published her story about a month before BD was released, but the start of her story had so much similarities to BD's first book that
it was erie, especially the bruising after the first sex night. Except it was done much more tasteful than SM, I felt.

I never hated Bella in Eclipse. She just really played both Edward and Jacob. Leading them both on. I still can not believe that Edward didnt get pissed when
Bella and Jacob made out. He was totally fine with it! WTF! My friend said it was because he loved her. I do not give a fuck! lol Thats the more reason to be
pissed in my eyes. The whole time he was sucking on her neck I was just waiting for Edward to pop in and break his neck! what a let down!
I am only 400 pages into Breaking Dawn, I hated the Jacob Point of View section. Thats all so far oh and the little nudgers name |

Ok, now I'm almost finished Eclipse and Bella is completely driving me crazy with her disgusted aversion to Edward wanting to marry her. I mean, she goes
on and on about how she can't live without him, so much so that she wants to be a vampire so she can be with him forever and ever and ever BUT marriage is
too big of a committment?! Come on now! She's worried about what people would think about her getting married right out of high school?? Um. Hello.
What's the least shocking of either her getting married at 18 or being a vampire. It's just so dumb. It doesn't make any sense for the character to
behave that way. And she talks about never being able to see her family or friends after her "change". Well, then she won't need to worry about
what they think of her marriage, right?? I just feel so bad for Edward because every time he mentions marrying her, she acts like it makes her physcially ill.
Thanks for letting me vent! It's been driving me nuts and no one I know has read the book yet, so they think I'm crazy. |

I just finished Twilight. It was better then I thought. I was like "Ok...this has to get better" then when James smells her it got really good!
 I couldn't put it down.
Now I'm looking forward to reading New Moon. Yay to finally finishing the damn book!
