In the explosive finale to the epic romantic saga, Bella has one final choice to make. Should she stay mortal and strengthen her connection to the werewolves, or leave it all behind to become a vampire?When you loved the one who was killing you, it left you no options. How could you run, how could you fight, when doing so would hurt that beloved one? If your life was all you had to give, how could you not give it? If it was someone you truly loved?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, a tumultuous year of temptation, loss, and strife have led her to the ultimate turning point. Her imminent choice to either join the dark but seductive world of immortals or to pursue a fully human life has become the thread from which the fates of two tribes hangs.This astonishing, breathlessly anticipated conclusion to the Twilight Saga illuminates the secrets and mysteries of this spellbinding romantic epic.It's here! #1 bestselling author Stephenie Meyer makes a triumphant return to the world of Twilight with the highly anticipated companion, Midnight Sun: the iconic love story of Bella and Edward told from the vampire's point of view."People do not want to just read Meyer's books; they want to climb inside them and live there." -- Time"A literary phenomenon." -- The New York TimesAuthor: Stephenie MeyerPublisher: Little, Brown Books for Young ReadersPublished: 08/02/2008Pages: 768Binding Type: HardcoverWeight: 1.90lbsSize: 8.30h x 5.90w x 2.20dISBN: 9780316067928Age Range: 14-17Accelerated Reader:Reading Level: 4.8Point Value: 28Interest Level: Upper GradeQuiz #/Name: 124537 / Breaking DawnReview Citation(s): Entertainment Weekly 07/18/2008 pg. 25People Weekly 07/28/2008 pg. 53Newsweek 08/04/2008 pg. 63Entertainment Weekly 08/15/2008 pg. 68Time 08/18/2008 pg. 65New York Times Book Review 08/17/2008 pg. 19Entertainment Weekly 08/22/2008 pg. 128Time 09/01/2008 pg. 4Entertainment Weekly 09/05/2008 pg. 81People Weekly 09/08/2008 pg. 90Booklist 09/01/2008 pg. 88Entertainment Weekly 09/19/2008 pg. 79Entertainment Weekly 09/26/2008 pg. 99Voice of Youth Advocates 10/01/2008 pg. 354 - Reviewed - More Editing NeededEntertainment Weekly 10/10/2008 pg. 77School Library Journal 10/01/2008 pg. 154Christian Century 12/16/2008 pg. 27Entertainment Weekly 12/19/2008 pg. 67Entertainment Weekly 01/30/2009 pg. 105Hornbook Guide to Children 01/01/2009 - Below Average, With Minor FlawEntertainment Weekly 04/17/2009 pg. 63Library Journal 08/18/2008About the AuthorStephenie Meyer is the author of the #1 bestselling Twilight Saga, The Host, and The Chemist.
