Breaking+Dawn

By: Amy Yang

//Breaking Dawn// by Stephenie Meyer is an example of division and classification. The fourth book of the //Twilight// series, Meyer decided to split the book into three parts. She also decided to classify the three sections of the book by narrator. The first section starts off with the narrator of the three previous books, Bella Swan. The second section is told from the point of view from her friend Jacob Black. Finally, the last section has a return to Bella's point of view. Dividing the book helps the reader by giving them two accounts for the same event for a wholesome outlook. Hearing Jacob's thoughts is refreshing because the book, at 768 pages, is so long. It's easier for the reader to finish a third of the book in one sitting than it is to read the whole thing. This pattern of development is very helpful for the reader.
