So, I work with this woman who is in her mid-forties. She's recently started reading the Twilight series, and I guess because I'm one of the younger people in my office, she's taken to discussing the books with me. I was hesitant to do this, because I am closeted in the Twifandom in every way in my every day life. I would die if anyone I knew was aware that I write fanfic, etc.
Anyway, I was about to tell her that I hadn't read the books when she said,
"That series had one of the best endings I've ever read. So exciting, so well written."

Lady...what kind of stuff do you read that you thought THAT was the best ending you've ever read? Are you fishing in the dollar bin and like, reading the short stories in Highlights magazine?
Well, Campers, after I re-inserted my eyeballs into their sockets and picked my jaw off the floor, I said, "Are you effing crazy, lady?" The ending of that book was utter shit. My first (self-published, btw) book had a better ending, and that sucker was named, 'Why I Love My Daddy' and I wrote it in first grade.
We proceeded to get into a verbal sparring match over the ridiculous non-climax climax, and what a cop out SMeyer pulled by letting everyone have what they wanted in the end. SHE EVEN THOUGHT RENESMEE WAS A CUTE NAME FFS.
The new Twihard asked me how I would've wanted Breaking Dawn to end, since I was obviously so dissatisfied. After some thought, I decided I wanted it to go a little something like this (where Rob is Edward of course):
So, Campers - how would YOU have liked to see the series end?
