Goodreads | Breaking Dawn (Twilight Series, Book 4)

Goodreads Breaking Dawn (Twilight Series, Book 4)

I've already had enthusiastic conversations with students and teachers about this final (or is it? Lots of ways this story could continue!) chapter of the Twilight series. Most of us have been more than satisfied with the way the story wrapped itself up. Meyer believes in happy endings, even for vampires, shape-shifters and interesting hybrids.

Book Recommendations

My favorite question to ask people -- friends, colleagues, and total strangers -- is "What are you reading?" I tell my students if they're shy, to ask this question when they meet people, and they'll never have to say anything other than, "Oh, really? Sounds interesting. Wow. Great. I want to read that one for sure."

So, what are you reading? What are your favorite books? What books do you recommend to others? I would love to compile a list for my students.

Thanks
