This post comes with a story. Talking to a friend of mine on Gmail about his upcoming bowling party. As the minutes turned to hours of silence, I decide to make a small wager. That wager didn't stay small. Without anything else to do, we ended up making a 9 part bet. Don't ask me them all, but these two were a part of it.
1: Read a book of the winner's choice.
2: Write at least a 300 word essay on it.
And this book report was born.
I was going to keep this report to myself, but after some... persuading... Meaghan and Olivia convinced me to post.
SPOILER ALERT!

Much to Cameron Plants amusement, I present to you, my humiliating Breaking Dawn book report.
This book was very descriptive. This didn't help me at all considering that I haven't read any of the other Twilight books. Right off the bat, you are given a good description of Bella, the main character in this book. She is part of a world that we humans rarely get to understand. Bella is friends with vampires and werewolves. Not the safest of friends, but that’s just my opinion on the matter.
Bella, earlier in the series I assume, falls in love with a vampire named Edward. Now, falling in love with a magical creature is no laughing matter. Imagine what Bella's dad said when he found out! Well, this novel is about their marriage and married life. At one point, Bella gives birth to a child. This part of the novel was probably the most gruesome and disturbing few chapters I have ever read in my life! Luckily, Bella passed out for a lot of it and gave me a chance to regain my sanity.
This new child, named Renesmee, is a demon. This was apparent when she broke almost all of Bella's bones during birth. She is born with a gift. Not being able to speak at such a young age, she can communicate with people through touch. If she touches you, she would transfer a thought or memory to you. I have one question, how does she select which thoughts she shares with you? If you couldn't control it, that could get embarassing...
Overall, this was a terrible novel. I sentence it to death immediatly. No wonder they created a movie called vampires suck! Two lessons came out of this assignment:
1. Never make bets in my spare time
2. Work on my bowling skills!
2. Work on my bowling skills!
