I am writing this post at Maldives, about 40 minutes from its capital – Male.
I hope you’re all having a great summer, just like me.
The highlight of this summer is not my vacation on the paradise island, but a book that has been published this month – Breaking dawn.
2nd if august was the day all of the Twilight fans have been waiting for, including myself. I’m srry to say that due to my vacation I didn’t have a chance to buy the book, so I had to download it from the internet. However, I’ll surely buy it as soon as I come back to some civilized place. I’d like to remind you that Stephenie Meyer deserves her money for the book and therefore you should buy it, instead of just downloading it.
SPOILER WARNING!
Now to the book itself… Like I’ve already mentioned before, at some other site, there are two parts of me now – one liking the book very much for having a typical happy ending, another disliking it for being too predictable at some points (Bella’s pregnancy, Jacob imprinting on her daughter and more). The only point that I haven’t predicted was the happy ending, really. No sacrifice, no battle, no… nothing. I just really hope there will be another book after this, perhaps with some more action. I’d love to see that coming.
However, the part of me which loves the book is stronger than this other, critical part. Perhaps It’s because I’m such a sucker for Edward – who knows? Plus I was infinitely happy for Bella – it is easy to get swept away by her happiness in this book. I got… carried away.
No matter how much I’d hate to see anyone (even minor characters) dying, It would have made the series more serious, I suppose. But then again, perhaps it’s supposed to be this way – cheerful, easy reading, letting us to relate to the characters and see them living… forever.
Have a nice summer,
Ana
