Finally!! I have finished the Quartet that makes up the Twilight series.
Okay, first things first.
There should be some disadvantages to being a vampire. I'm sorry, but there should. Okay, maybe drinking blood is not that great a way to survive, but being filthy rich and drinking only animal blood and living a long life.... well, those are things to be envious of (minus the blood part).
Secondly, though the last novel in the series finally brings everything to an end, it was overly melodramatic. And I still can't get over the imprinting thing. Seriously, all said and done, the first three in the series were much much better. The last should have had something - a sad death, a poor consequence - Even Harry Potter has more death and destruction.
Do we all like happy endings? Hmmm..... yeah, I suppose we do. But then, it's better to be pragmatic and optimistic rather than anything else right? However, having said that, what's the fun in having a vampire book if no one dies?
I wouldn't call myself a Stephanie Meyer fan (die hard fan i.e.). But I was truly disappointed with this book. Even though it has taken a long time to finish the 754 pages that make up this book, I must say, at least one has an ending. A happy ending, a not-so-imaginative ending, but an ending nonetheless.
Sorry if this blog has ruined the book for you. But I love blood and gore in my novels and get extremely annoyed if there isn't any.
