Purchase options and add-ons

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 that 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 Times "Will keep readers madly flipping the pages of Meyer's tantalizing debut." Publishers Weekly

Stephenie Meyer's life changed dramatically on June 2, 2003. The stay-at-home mother of three young sons woke-up from a dream featuring seemingly real characters that she could not get out of her head. "Though I had a million things to do (i.e. making breakfast for hungry children, dressing and changing the diapers of said children, finding the swimsuits that no one ever puts away in the right place), I stayed in bed, thinking about the dream. Unwillingly, I eventually got up and did the immediate necessities, and then put everything that I possibly could on the back burner and sat down at the computer to write--something I hadn't done in so long that I wondered why I was bothering." Meyer invented the plot during the day through swim lessons and potty training, then writing it out late at night when the house was quiet. Three months later she finished her first novel, Twilight.

Twilight was one of 2005's most talked about novels and within weeks of its release the book debuted at #5 on The New York Times bestseller list.Among its many accolades, Twilight was named an "ALA Top Ten Books for Young Adults," an Amazon.com "Best Book of the Decade&So Far", and a Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year. The movie version of Twilight will be released by Summit Entertainment nationwide on November 21, 2008, starring Kristen Stewart ("Into The Wild") and Robert Pattinson ("Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire").

The highly-anticipated sequel, New Moon, was released in September 2006 and spent 31 weeks at the #1 position on The New York Times bestseller list. Eclipse, the third book in Meyer's Twilight saga, was released on August 7, 2007 and sold 150,000 copies its first day on-sale. The book debuted at #1 bestseller lists across the country, including USA Today and The Wall Street Journal. The fourth and final book in the Twilight Saga, Breaking Dawn, was published on August 2, 2008, with a first printing of 3.2 million copies - the largest first printing in the publisher's history. Breaking Dawn sold 1.3 million copies its first day on-sale rocketing the title to #1 on bestseller lists nationwide.

Meyer's highly-anticipated debut for novel adults, The Host, was released by Little, Brown and Company in May 2008 and debuted at #1 on The New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestseller lists.

Stephenie Meyer graduated from Brigham Young University with a degree in English Literature. She lives in Arizona with her husband and sons.

The final installment of this wonderful love story

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 12 February 2010

Verified Purchase

This book starts with what left behind of Eclipse and it's divided into three parts. The first part, told from the point of view of Bella, accounts the wedding of Edward and Bella and their honeymoon in Isle Esme. The second part, told from Jacob's perspective, details the period he spends with Bella and the Cullens during her pregnancy and the horrific birth of her child. The third part, back to Bella's view, accounts her early days as a vampire and the danger that Renesmee(the daughter she has with Edward) put the family in and the conflict with the Volturi.

From the moment I start reading this book, I've been searching for clues etc on the reconciliation of the triangular relationship as the third book did left me heartbroken in a way for Jacob. You can see the gradual change in the mind of Jacob and how he finally finds peace.
The first part is all very fairy-tale like with all the wedding and stuff and the first sexual encounter of Bella and Edward. Bella seems like a mature girl apart from the fact that in Eclipse she kind of keeps changing her "deadline" and "terms of conditions" for becoming an immortal. However, in the first part of the book, she becomes this pretty desperate girl always asking for more physical contact from her newly wed husband, which is a bit over the top. Edward, having discovered their first sexual experience results in bruises all over her body, refuses for more until she becomes an immortal. And of course he has to "give in" in the end. Well, you can imagine the consequence of `non-safe" sex which leads to the second part of the book.

The second part is told from Jacob's point of view and whole tone or language is different. From Jacob's angle, you can see the love both Edward and Bella has towards each other which also makes him realize that he should move on. The account of the whole pregnancy is quite horrific, as the baby grows in the speed of light and Bella has to start `drinking blood' to feed the baby. The final chapter for this part is more or less like the script of ER with Edward delivering the baby and Jacob giving Bella CPR!!
And in the third part, you will find out that Bella, who nearly died during the childbirth, has survived as Edward gives her his venom in the last minute and turned into a vampire. The first few chapters account how Bella adjusts to this new life, which surprisingly is not as bad as it was expected. On the other hand, it shows how the triangular relationship develops and has indeed an interesting outcome. Having imprinted on her daughter, Bella can finally release herself from the guilt she felt for Jacob and Jacob can also "move on" with his life with Renesmee in mind. When I read to this, it does sound odd to me and it takes time to take it in. However, you may remember in New Moon, Quil imprinted on a 2 year old-so it's not so strange after all, and besides, we do live in a strange world nowadays. This kind of takes the Bella-Jacob relationship into a new stage as he becomes her true (probably only human) friend whom she can still be close to, ignoring the potential `son-in-law' issue!! It drags a bit for this part of the story but what comes next is quite exciting.

Again, remember back in New Moon, Laurent, who developed a close relationship with Irina from the Denali coven, was killed by the wolf pack. Irina, comes to try to make peace with the Cullen but she sees Renesmee and believes she is an immortal child, a human child turned into a vampire-this is forbidden within the community. She reports this to the Volturi who then decide to come and punish the Cullens. In order to convict the Volturi that Renesmee is not one, they gather all the friends they can find as witnesses as Renesmee has this special gift of transmitting memory and thoughts. Their friends are all taken by surprise and become warmed to her. On the other hand, there is a slight twist to the story, Alice and Jasper disappeared which is a mystery that is only revealed in the most crucial moment.
The Cullens, along with their alliance-the werewolves, not entirely sure that they will win this battle, are all prepared to die and so as their friends. As their friends gathering in their place, they slowly come to the conclusion that the Volturi are coming, not for the punishment, but to get all the gifted Cullens especially Alice to join them. The whole court of the Volturi finally arrive and at the crucial moment, Alice and Jasper appear with additional proof. They bring with them a 150 years old half-human/half-vampire Nahuel who explains that the half-breed poses no danger to them. The Volturi finally leave them in peace.

This is probably not so much as a page turner as the first three books but it ties up some of the loose ends from previous books and a good ending or happy ever after is probably what many of the fans want. I know it may just be too perfect but that is probably what we want in our imagination. And seriously I do like the last chapter very much especially on the part where Bella, having obtained this gift of putting on a shield, manages to push it off, so that Edward can read her thought and understand how much she loves him.
Last, but not the least, I think Stephanie is very clever in a way that she has put some clues in the end which will be useful if she decides to go back on them again. Will Renesmee choose Nahuel instead after 6 years when she grows up? Will Jacob be heartbroken yet again? Will Volturi recover after this encounter and come back again to revenge? I do sincerely hope that we will get answers to these in the near future!!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 10 May 2019

Of all the twilight books, this is my favourite. In part - maybe in light of my own age, - it's the more "grown up" of them. Mostly though it's the hope and light in it. I do wish we could see from Edward's perspective too though, especially with his extra senses. I'd love books from all the characters perspectives to be honest, but I get to the end of this book still wanting more. Wanting a story from other characters, the next chapters, maybe some history of each - Carlisle 's probably the most interesting since he lived with the volturi and then created his family, not to mention his own struggles with his diet. I'd love an Alice origin story too, seeing how and why she was created, her un-remembered encounter with James, then following her to Jasper and then the Cullens. Charlie's story after Bella's marriage and more obviously the next chapters from our favourite wolf too lol. The books are written so well you come out with a jolt realising it's not real, it's easy leaving your mind living in that workd, and it's hard not to crave more lol. Definitely recommend for both escapism and romance. And read before seeing the movies as none of the actors are who you'd picture in your head except maybe Jasper, Alice, mike, jessica, Angela, Billy and Charlie. Carlisle has the right persona but the books are 100 times better than the films (though I do like them, don't get me wrong). I hope Stephanie Meyer writes more, that's all I can say.

Satisfying

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 16 August 2008

I remember reading all of the spoilers put up by people who hated it (see amazon.com) and thinking, "That doesn't sound too bad." Well, my book finally arrived and I've read through it three times. My take is that everything is easily explainable, in character, and foreshadowed. Nothing surprising, shocking or upsetting. As for whether or not I liked it. I'd have to say yes

I found this to be more intellectually satisfying than the other books in the series. While there is indeed less of a direct attachment to the characters than in the other books, this is more than made up for by the plot and even more importantly the shadows of books to come.

There are many juicy little side stories (should you look closely enough). I highly recommend you pay attention to the vampire chart at the back of the book. What interesting little side stories could be born from Siobhan and her talent. Or we could investigate Garret who in my opinion is the best character in the book. We finally get a look at Marcus and I remained intrigued by his sheer boredom in the face of stress greater than the Volturi have undergone for millenia. Is this because of his talent? Is it because of his deceased, talented wife? Jacob comes into his own in the book. So does Leah. Heck, Seth starts to step in the limelight and I want more.

This book closes down the Bella/Edward storyline admirably (and this is in part if why I feel people are angry) even if this does mean that she has them start to recede into the background. But such interesting and vivid characters take their place that I personally came away satisfied.

I'm torn about whether this is better than Eclipse. I think so but I'm not quite sure.
