Outside Reading Post 9

For the past 2 weeks I've been reading the book, Breaking Dawn, by Stephanie Meyer. So far I've gotten to the part where Bella has given birth to her daughter, the daughter of her and Edward. Basically after this gruesome scene Bella is transformed into a vampire. That's about as far as I've gotten; there is a lot to comment on, so I'll specifically focus on description, my favorite part about all books. I base my liking and understanding on a book by it's description: poor description, crappy book; great description, good book. Well what I really enjoyed about this section of the novel was the fact that it was fascinatingly portrayed. For example, "After a split second we heard a loud snap. Her spine, the thing in her broke her spine! Blood was everywhere, it enveloped the table Bella was on, and our hands, I couldn't stand this anymore." This kind of description paints a picture in my mind, and not to mention a vivid picture. Well yeah, that's all I wanted to comment on for this blog.
