Breaking Dawn - Stephanie Meyer

I finished Breaking Dawn just in time for all of the Twilight movie hype - great timing! So, Breaking Dawn is the final installment in the Twilight series. And it's quite a finale!

In Breaking Dawn, Bella and Edward finally marry and begin their "happily ever after" with each other. Only to find out that Bella is pregnant - with what? Vampire, or human? The story unfolds as Bella gives birth, Jacob becomes even more firmly entrenched into their lives, and the Volturi are back for revenge.

The story was entertaining and contained a lot of twists and turns as the story progressed. The story ended up being very different than I thought it would be going in. One thing I didn't love about this book, though, was the random chapters in the middle narrated by Jacob. I'm not completely sure what the purpose of that was. Hmmm. Overall, I was satisfied and am looking forward to the movie adaptions.

Belly Laughs - Jenny McCarthy

When I found out I was pregnant six weeks ago, this is one of the first books I picked up. It recounts Jenny's experience with her first pregnancy - the good, the bad, and the ugly. The really ugly. Jenny describes the ups and downs of pregnancy - everything your doctor doesn't tell you - with humor. I found myself reading chapter after chapter, enthralled, grossed out, and laughing hysterically. I must read for all soon to be moms. And a super easy read - I think I read the whole book in under two hours.

Whoa - Long Time

So, I haven't posted in eons. I have been preoccupied by all things baby since I found out I was pregnant six weeks ago today. I think all I read for over a month was pregnancy book after pregnancy book.

However, the good news is that I finished Breaking Dawn and am most of the way through Happiness Sold Separately by Lolly Winston. I will be posting more book reviews soon, so stay tuned!!!
