Publisher's summary

To be irrevocably in love with a vampire is both fantasy and nightmare woven into a dangerously heightened reality for Bella Swan. Pulled in one direction by her intense passion for Edward Cullen, and in another by her profound connection to werewolf Jacob Black, she has endured a tumultuous year of temptation, loss, and strife to reach the ultimate turning point.

Her imminent choice to either join the dark but seductive world of immortals or pursue a fully human life has become the thread from which the fate of two tribes hangs.

Now Bella has made her decision; a startling chain of unprecedented events is about to unfold with potentially devastating and unfathomable consequences. Just when the frayed strands of Bella's life - first discovered in Twilight, then scattered and torn in New Moon and Eclipse - seem ready to heal and knit together, could they be destroyed...forever?

The astonishing, breathlessly anticipated conclusion to the Twilight Saga, Breaking Dawn illuminates the secrets and mysteries of this spellbinding romantic epic.

If you're new to The Vampire Diaries or have recently started streaming the TV show, this is an essential guide to the central plot points, characters, and overarching story. Because so many years separate the novels, and there are trilogies within the overarching Vampire Diaries series, it can be confusing to know where to start. We'll demystify it all. If you're drawn to the Salvatore brothers, and hungry to learn more about the characters who love, fear, and loathe them, read on!

Wonderful

I love that I can picture every word and what she is looking at right when listening to this book. An excellent book to listen to at work makes the time go back faster.

Narrator pronunciation 🤨

I love these stories but the narrators pronunciation of every day words took away from the story. She would pronounce wolf as woof and forward as fo-werd. Every single time she did I had to back track because I was so perplexed that she said it that way that I lost track of the story.

Ilyana Kadushin

I have read this book before and loved it, yet somehow Ilyana made it better than the first time. I love her as a narrator and will be looking for more books read by her, same goes for Matt Walters.

Again, All time favorite

Where does Breaking Dawn rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

The best

What was one of the most memorable moments of Breaking Dawn?

when bella realized jacob had imprinted on renesmee

Which character – as performed by Ilyana Kadushin and Matt Walters – was your favorite?

can't really pick, they are all my favorites by this time

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

yes, when bella had to try and say goodbye to jacob and renesmee

Any additional comments?

if people could just get past the reputation that these are for teenagers they would really enjoy these books. No blatant sex, no cursing everyother sentence. just really good love story.

I liked Jake's narration

I loved the whole series, but I did enjoy the part narrated by Jake. I know that it is Bella's story, but it gave it more depth to have it narrated by more than one person.
