Twlight was a bit silly. New Moon even more so, and way too depressing. Eclipse was a big improvement from the first two. And Breaking Dawn, I admit, was a good finale to the series. However I think that Meyer wanted to fit too much drama into this one, what with the pregnancies, transformations, threats of death and whatnot. Yet I predicted a lot of it as I was reading, thinking how such and such will happen... and it did. So nothing in terms of big surprises. There was a tiny one at the end which was nice but apart from that nothing. I'm more interested to see the film of this once it comes out, as there was a lot of pretty disgusting stuff in here, such as Bella drinking cupfuls of blood when she is still human etc. Ugh, it made me sick reading those bits. And the whole Jacob becoming part of the family was a bit disturbing. But credit to Meyer for thinking of a way to have everyone a happy ending. All in all I think this was a good read, not much thought needed, I wouldn't say it was very challenging (and I like a good challenge). This comes recommended if you have read the series, otherwise you're not missing out on a lot and it would probably be better if you saw the films. I am off to find something with more substance now.
