I bought mine yesterday morning after I had my hair done. I also went to my 10 yr class reunion last night...so I'm ALMOST finished...less that 1/4 of the book left....but what a twist she threw at us!!!
LOL, I love that the rest of y'all are just as dorky about this book as I am!

My daughter got to the end of Jacob's section and yelled "MOM!!!!!!!" I ran in there to see what was wrong, figuring there was a spider in her room and she said "Did Jacob imprint on _______________?" And I said "yup!" and she started laughing hysterically. I couldn't wait to see her reaction to that!

Okay - still reading BD, but I'm so glad this thread is here so I can come back and blab when I'm all done with it (although I have skipped ahead and peeked at what's coming...)

I'm *one chapter* from being done with Jacob's story so I know what's coming next

I got the book from the B&N release party (they had a BUNCH--even for those like me who didn't reserve a copy I just finished it. Wow is all I can say.

So I call my daughter at lunch just to check in and it goes like this:

Daughter: "I can't talk to you, I'm reading"
Me: "What page are you on?"
Daughter: "734!"

Heh... I should hear from her soon.

Well, the Twilight boards on Facebook and the Stephanie Meyer site have re-opened so the spoilers are all out there... I was wondering though if we should start a new thread just for Breaking Dawn with a spoiler warning?

I'm reading in bits and spurts when I can [y'all should have seen me trying to cook dinner and read at the same time last night!], and I've just started Jacob's section.

I will TRY to behave and NOT read this link until I'm done.... so if you are just dying to talk, I think it would be ok

I will be done by Saturday, for sure.

ETA: I normally read books like these in less than a day. This is truly a sign that I've got too much going on that I can't get the book read.

So this book made me rethink being so anti-Team Jacob. He really matured this book! lol.

I'm sorry Renesmee has to be the dumbest name ever. lol. I was hoping that once Bella got over the fire that she'd rethink the name. Carlie was much better as a first name.

This book was much more...adult(?) than the other books, which I found refreshing.

I knew the Volturi would be involved, especially when Bella got pregnant & with the whole thing about the "immortal children" @ the beginning of the book.

I know, I wasn't thrilled with the name either...
I couldn't believe it when Bella got pregnant!!!
Edward completely fell apart in this book!
I love how the "shape shifters" and the vampires are totally connected now!!

A lot of people are pissed about this book, they think there wasn't enough sex and violence....If there was more violence, someone would have died, and I'm really glad none of the important characters did!!
