Yeah. It's about Bella's daughter, Renesmee. How she loved her unborn child to death although the baby was pretty much killing her -- breaking her ribs, pelvis, and spine, causing her not to be able to eat and have to drink blood, throwing up constantly, causing her extreme pain -- but no matter what Edward and Carlisle thought was best, she was going to keep the baby and have it. She loved the baby, who was killing her. Since she was inside of her she could not run or fight. This is what the preface was about.
Hope I helped! (:

When I first read the preface, I totally thought that she was talking about Edward, whom she loved, and her transformation into a vampire, when she "dies." Renesmee was such a suprise!

Love,

1. As usual, the preface hints that Bella is facing death. Did you think she would escape again, or did you think this time would be for real?
no.i never really thought bella would die...stephenie meyer always seemed to be a happy ending kinda girl...=] and thank God for it.

2. Bella says that she loves the person killing her. Who did you think she was talking about?

2. Bella says that she loves the person killing her. Who did you think she was talking about? Jacob.

No, I knew she would escape. If Stephenie was going to kill a main character, she would have lead up to it in other books by killing off (non-evil) more minor characters, but still major enough for their death to hurt. And I knew Stephenie wouldn't to that to us, or herself.


2. Bella says that she loves the person killing her. Who did you think she was talking about?

Well, Edward, obviously. He was the only one I could think of that she loved that much (I can't believe I didn't think of Jacob! I am SO STUPID! I thought Edward had lost control during the transformation, and maybe bit her too much, or was drinking her blood, or whatever . . . or maybe the Volturi forced him to with Alec's power (which I didn't know about then). I thought maybe Alec's power would be to control people, kinda like the imperius curse in HP.

I thought she would escape because I belivied she would became a vampire.

At first, I thought it was the process of her becoming a vampire. With Edward bitting her and she feeling the pain. She was thinking that she was dying in the hands of Edward, and there was nothing she could do at the moment... I was totaly wrong, of course...

I thought that she would escape, I mean c'mon! It's Edward and Bella.

2. Bella says that she loves the person killing her. Who did you think she was talking about?
I didn't even know. lol I thought that maybe Jacob was killing her, especially after I read that QOTD where Seth said "Jacob let her go, you're hurting her" Or something like that.

Yay!!!!!!!!!!!! "Breaking Dawn" discussions!!!!!!!

1. As usual, the preface hints that Bella is facing death. Did you think she would escape again, or did you think this time would be for real? I really thought it was going to end this time. I knew she'd be turned, but I figured she'd by dying, too.

2. Bella says that she loves the person killing her. Who did you think she was talking about? I thought it was Edward drinking her blood...honestly. A baby was never even on my radar for this story!!

Bella has such tragic life - always worried about dying. although this was different...i figured it was Edward in the transformation...she wanted it so bad!

i wasn't expecting who it was at all! I tried to stay away from what people are saying I really wanted to read it for my self no outside influence.

Of course I thought she'd escape. What kind of ending would her dying be??

2. Bella says that she loves the person killing her. Who did you think she was talking about?
Naturally, I thought it was Edward while turning her into a vampire.
