In the history of literature.10points if you can come up with the best explanation why Breaking Dawn isn't the biggest Deus Ex Machina...?
Yeah, I feel that Meyer was really pushing her luck with this book. If it wasnt for Twilight and Eclipse for being so good (and sold well) she wouldnt have written a crappy plot/story like this one.
I was so annoyed that she had bella become pregnant and turn into a vampire. Like a part of me (ha ha..) wanted her to become one, but it completely changes the whole entire plot. It would have been cuter and more romantic if it just fast-forwarded to the future where she dies of old and and how Edward is just happy she lived a long and happy life with him.
There were many strings that Meyer could have used.
A perfect baby? Turns into a vampire who can easily and quickly control her thirst?..That is just really, really pushing it. The whole thing about finishing Jacob's story with him imprinting on Renesmee (im on team edward btw-but even so, i wanted him to have a satisfying ending)
The whole book was just a complete disappointment. Stephenie could have done much better. She tried to satisfy so many people, she shouldnt have done that. She should have killed off some characters (sorry, but even JK Rowling did that, it's for the sake of interesting reading and more realistic--even for the book's universe that it was written in). Meyer spent so many chapters prepping for this whole Volturi meet. And we just leave off with a "Oh well I suppose there is no trouble here since there is this boy that Alice magically found and brought over here on time.."
Oh please..
At least Midnight Sun is good so far :]
I don't understand the whole Deus Ex Machina stuff.
Well no wonder the twilighters haven't responeded! Thanx for clearing that up for me by the way.10points if you can come up with the best explanation why Breaking Dawn isn't the biggest Deus Ex Machina...?
I don't think anyone can....I bet Meyer couldn't.
:) it should be!! %26lt;310points if you can come up with the best explanation why Breaking Dawn isn't the biggest Deus Ex Machina...?
Because in a way the conflicts in BD were solvable. One way or another it would have had a happy ending as it would have been a bad career choice to end the series with a major fight/death, and that there was never any danger in the underlying story. It was only ever a mental fight, nothing more than a little internal conflict with bella involved.
It doesn't matter.
Stephenie wrote it for herself, how she wanted it to end.
And yes it was solved, the whole 'Alice saves the day' thing remember?!
Everything is solved, just not in the most conventional way.
HUMANS can have babies. Renesmee is a cross breed, so naturally she would be perfect.
Alice uses her brain and gives evidence, similar to a court case. The Volturi leave because appropriate evidence has been given and they see no need for any more conflict.
Bella was the 'perfect' new vampire, because the traits that she had when she was human eg hated the smell of blood, private mind, just magnified and became part of her powers. Became part of her being as a vampire.
So stop trying to sound smart.
