Okay, so I am going to try super hard to write a good review of Breaking Dawn without inadvertently releasing any spoilers.
I picked it up at my local Chapters release party, which was fabulous, by the way, and stayed up all night (or morning rather) reading it.
Anyways, the first half of this book was so stressful to read. It seemed very different from the previous three books in the series. Maybe cause I've just read it, I still need to get use to some of the new content. But seriously, it was agonizing to read. I was practically writhing on my couch. But you'll have to read it to know why. :)
It was a pretty big book (754pg), and it had a big plot as well. I guess this is because it's the final book in the series, so there was a lot of stuff to tie up. It felt pretty well spaced though. An insane amount of things happened, but it didn't feel rushed.
One thing that was nice about this installment was that some of the minor characters got developed more, and you were able to grow in your understanding of them and appreciate them more.
Out of all the books, Bella appealed to me the most in this book. The decisions she makes really increased my respect for her, and it felt like she really came into her own.
Over all, I found this book extremely entertaining and satisfying. I think there are going to be mixed reactions to it though. We'll see!

I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'm currently in Chapter 3 and sort of struggling to get into it. (I admit, I only got it because the spoilers were so horrible that I couldn't resist buying it. Is that twisted?)
Glad you enjoyed it. It was good, I'll give her that, but to me Book Three read like a Mary-Sue fic. Book Two was the best, though. ^_^
I personally haven't read BD yet. But a lot of my friends felt the book was rushed &+ Meyer didn't spend much time on the final book. But I have no idea. I shouldn't take their opinion, eh? I'll probably read it in 2 weeks or so &+ get back to you then! Hit me back.
