Plot summary

Breaking Dawn is split into three separate parts. The first part details Bella’s marriage and honeymoon with Edward, which they spend on a private island off the coast of Brazil. Two weeks into their honeymoon, Bella realizes that she is pregnant and that her condition is progressing at an unnaturally accelerated rate. After contacting Carlisle, who confirms her pregnancy, she and Edward immediately return home to Forks, Washington. Edward, concerned for Bella’s life and convinced that the fetus is a monster as it continues to develop with unnatural rapidity, urges her to have an abortion. However, Bella feels a connection with the child and refuses.

The novel’s second part is written from the perspective of wolf shape-shifter Jacob Black, and lasts throughout Bella’s pregnancy and childbirth. Jacob’s Quileute wolf pack, not knowing what danger the unborn child may pose, plan to destroy it, also killing Bella. Jacob vehemently protests this decision and leaves, forming his own pack with Leah and Seth Clearwater. Bella soon gives birth, but the baby breaks many of her bones and she loses massive amounts of blood. In order to save her life, Edward changes her into a vampire by injecting his venom into her heart. Jacob, who was present for the birth, almost immediately “imprints”—an involuntary response in which a shape-shifter finds his soul mate—on Edward and Bella’s newborn daughter, Renesmee.

The third section of Breaking Dawn shifts back to Bella’s perspective, finding her changed into a vampire and enjoying her new life and abilities. However, the vampire Irina misidentifies Renesmee as an “immortal child”, a child who has been turned into a vampire. Because “immortal children” are uncontrollable, creating them has been outlawed by the Volturi. After Irina presents her allegation to the Volturi, they plan to destroy Renesmee and the Cullens. In an attempt to survive, the Cullens gather other vampire clans from around the world to stand as witnesses and prove to the Volturi that Renesmee is not an immortal child. Upon confronting the gathered Cullen allies and witnesses, the Volturi discover that they have been misinformed and immediately execute Irina for her mistake. However, they remain undecided on whether Renesmee should be viewed as a threat to vampires’ secret existence. At that time, Alice and Jasper, who had left prior to the confrontation, return with a Mapuche called Nahuel, a 150-year-old vampire-human crossbreed like Renesmee. He demonstrates that the crossbreeds pose no threat, and the Volturi surrender. Edward, Bella and Renesmee return to their home in peace.

Reception

Reception of Breaking Dawn was, at best, “mixed”.Lev Grossman wrote, “First, since there’s a lot of one-star reviews up on Amazon, let me say up front: I loved Breaking Dawn.”[19] Cara von Wrangel Kinsey of School Library Journal responded with a positive review, describing the book as “captivating” and noting, “While this novel is darker and more mature than the earlier titles, Meyer’s twists and turns are not out of character.”[20] The Charlotte Observer agreed and called the book “pretty darned good”, but criticized the book’s length saying, “I wish [Stephenie Meyer] hadn’t felt compelled to pack so much into one volume. It should have been two books.” Mary Harris Russell of the Chicago Tribune also responded with a positive review and hailed the book as a “fun read”, noting that Stephenie Meyer “continues to produce witty writing about families, teenagers and popular culture”,[22] while Time called the book “a wild but satisfying finish to the ballad of Bella and Edward” and gave it a rating of A-. An article in The Daily News Tribune said of Breaking Dawn, “Some of the dialog is a bit stilted,… but, if you stay close to Meyer’s rich and prodigious narrative, you too might fall in love with its suspense and moving sensitivity”.

Publishers Weekly stated that the main problem with Breaking Dawn was that, “Essentially, everyone gets everything they want, even if their desires necessitate an about-face in characterization or the messy introduction of some back story. Nobody has to renounce anything or suffer more than temporarily—in other words, grandeur is out.” In an article by The Associated Press, journalist Sara Rose wrote on NewsOK.com that fans of the series would love “engaging characters, great humor, a distracting obsession with beauty, focus on the minutiae of emotions”; however “casual readers may be disappointed with a lot of build-up and little action.” The Independent called the book, “shockingly, tackily, sick-makingly sexist” and said that “Bella Swan lives to serve men and suffer.” Entertainment Weekly graded Breaking Dawn with a D, criticizing the birth scene and Bella’s “unwavering passion for Edward” and having no other goals. The Washington Post also responded with a negative review, making comments such as, “Meyer has put a stake through the heart of her own beloved creation,” and “Breaking Dawn has a childbirth sequence that may promote lifelong abstinence in sensitive types.”

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Meyer responded to the negative response of many fans to the book and called it the “Rob Effect”; she said that the fans need time to accept the ending of Breaking Dawn, just as they needed time to accept Robert Pattinson playing the role of Edward in the Twilight movie.
Awards and honors

Breaking Dawn was the recipient of a British Book Award for “Children’s Book of the Year”, despite competition with JK Rowling’s The Tales of Beedle the Bard.In the 2009 “Children’s Choice Book Awards”, the novel was chosen as “Teen Choice Book of the Year” and won Meyer the “Author of the Year” award.
Film potential

Summit Entertainment, who created the film adaptation of the first novel in the series, Twilight, announced in November 2008 that they had obtained the rights to the rest of the books in Meyer’s series, including Breaking Dawn. Though Summit has not yet officially greenlit the project, stars Robert Pattinson and Ashley Greene stated that there are plans for a Breaking Dawn film. Wyck Godfrey, producer of the previous films in the series, said, “We’re shooting New Moon, prepping Eclipse, doing all the marketing—it’s a little overwhelming to really think in a detailed manner of how we’re going to crack this, but we have every intention to [make Breaking Dawn].”

According to Variety, the studio is considering splitting the 754-page book into two films, along the same lines as Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. They are also hoping that New Moon director Chris Weitz will return to helm the adaptation, though Godfrey says, “I think everyone would be happy and excited if he came back, but I don’t think it’s going to happen.” Melissa Rosenberg, the screenwriter for the previous films in the franchise, is writing the Breaking Dawn script(s).[38] If two films are made, Summit will have to negotiate new deals with the main cast, Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, and Taylor Lautner, since they are only under contract for four films.

Meyer said she believed Breaking Dawn may be impossible to make into a film due to Renesmee, writing that an actress could not play her because she is a baby but has complete awareness, and that “the one thing that I’ve never seen is a CGI human being who truly looks real”; however, she went on to state that “they develop amazing new technologies everyday, and we’ve got a little time left.” There are also concerns about making a PG-13 movie adaptation, due to the book’s complex and graphic storylines, including the birth of a half-vampire, half-human baby. When talking about Taylor Lautner’s next film for Summit Entertainment, producer Wyck Godfrey stated, “Lautner will reprise his role of Jacob in Breaking Dawn beginning in late 2010, and it is likely that the final book will be divided into two films that will shoot back-to-back.” They are considering filming in Vancouver beginning in fall 2010.
