    <body><![CDATA[I had to finish this! While the power went out during that freaky wind storm, I sat and read this book with a flashlight feeling like a super sleuth. <br/><br/>I know this is like a love or hate book. People are super divided on how they feel about it. I still think Meyer is a terrible writer and there were some parts that I really had a hard time with... (smart ass vampires who don't think, oh hey, maybe this vampire hybrid needs blood to live... let's wait until the comedic relief shows up to suggest it and then we're like of course!- what??)(vampire making sweet sweet lovin' to a human lady?)<br/><br/>However, there was a crazy twist that I was like, sweet! The big scene was kind of anticlimactic. I had a hard time with the flimsy, sort of tacked on pretense that 'saved the day'. However I felt like it was a good end to a pretty mediocre series. <br/><br/>It kind of felt like the Matrix trilogy, you know? The first movie should have just stopped there. They didn't need the second or third... but you know, if you HAVE to have a third, or a fourth in this instance, why not? At least there wasn't a giant glowing Neo crucifix at the end of this book. Just old ass vampires who needed to get smacked. Good times!]]></body>
