Breaking Dawn

So... Edward and Bella have finally gotten married. I love the first few chapters of Breaking Dawn just because it is finally the wedding and it's just fun to read and picture it in your mind.

Alice, like always, goes all out with the wedding decorations and Bella cannot even believe it. Before the wedding, Bella has a dream about the Volturi being in Forks, and she sees that all of her friends and family have been killed and there is a baby vampire on top of them all. She remembers this after she thinks about a story Carlisle told her one night about some vampires turning infants into vampires. They are so small that they cannot control themselves and they have killing sprees that could kill entire cities. This dream foreshadows a lot of what comes up in the rest of the book. Each part of this dream comes up in some way or another in the book. The vampire child, the Volturi showing up, having to "say goodbye" to her friends and family. There are a lot of things that are foreshadowed in the book, but they are also very subtle and hard to find until you read the book again or read very closely.
