Breaking Dawn is AMAZING!

Breaking Dawn 
Midnight Release Party
Barnes and Noble Oceanside

The release party on August 1st was a HUGE success!  Over 800 people anxiously waited until midnight to buy their copy of Breaking Dawn. As you can see from the picture, many kids couldn't wait to start reading... starting at 12:01 A.M.! 

Once you finish, tell me about your favorite parts.  Hopefully you tabbed [my book is full!] so share your favorite quotes and passages.  
WARNING:
Do not read this posting if you haven't finished the book! You don't want to spoil the story, believe me! Nothing I predicted came true; Stephenie Meyer outwitted us all!
Talk to me all about Edward, Bella, Jacob, and MORE!

And so the Lion Fell in Love with the Lamb


Breaking Dawn Predictions and Fan Fiction:
Will he, will she? Hot or cold, heartbeat or hollow? Fangs or fur?
TEAM EDWARD, OR TEAM JACOB?

What do you think is going to happen with Bella and Edward in Breaking Dawn? Will Jacob imprint, and if so, who is the destined one? How can Edward change Bella into something that he hates about himself?  
Share your thoughts, favorite quotes, and opinions on Breaking Dawn.  Also, change up what you know from the first 3 books.  What would have happen if Edward wouldn't have left Bella in New Moon? What if Jacob immediately imprinted on Bella in Twilight?

It's a new start to an old blog that simply ran out of room.  So Mr. Cowkid [please change your icon- it's a bull, not a cow!] Blogg-R, or BlogCat... do you know "How lucky, how lucky you are" to have your own blog?  Use it well my friend.  May the  luck of the cow be with you.
