✨4/5✨
Just absolutely brilliant. As a fan of the movies, this certainly has a different feel when watching the two parts of Breaking Dawn. The tension is palpable, especially in the last few chapters of the book. Highest score I've given for a Twilight book probably, but it's deserved in my opinion.

I'll say it...the movie for breaking dawn (part 2) was better than the book because at LEAST it has a little bit of payoff for all the build up.  Do not read if you're bothered by reading about heavy topics related to pregnancy because it is not handled well (in my opinion of course because I've *thankfully* never been pregnant, I could be wrong about how they were handled).

This book was super slow and I had a really hard time getting through it. The writing style just didn't make it easy to read. The romance is cute, but kinda basic. Honestly, it was almost predictable. The last few chapters were the best part because they had a little action, but it took me way to long to get there.

I read this in two days just in my attempt to finally be free from the fresh hell that is my idea of re-reading this series.

This is somehow the best, and the worst book of all of them-- by not by a lot.

Spoilers Ahead
It's obviously S. Meyer's weird anti-abortion manifesto, Bella makes it painfully clear when she, 18 and pregnant, will not give up the baby that is literally a parasite growing rapidly and actively killing her while she drinks blood out of a 7-11 cup as prescribed by a board-certified(?) doctor. 

This triggered constant eye-rolling every time she was described as weak but in the same breath, readers were made aware of how badly she wanted to keep Jakeward or whatever the male baby name idea was. Speaking of Jacob, his entire 'book' portion was so whiny and annoying and absolutely a displeasure to read.

The only mildly entertaining part of this book was the shady lawyer or whatever who was absolutely terrified of Mr. Jasper (can you blame him)? The Volturi scene was so long and drawn out for literally no reason. 

Midnight Sun is still on my radar, but not for a very, very long time.
