Life Beyond 'Breaking Dawn? Should Stephenie Continue 'Twilight'?'

For the last couple of years I have been completely head over heels in love with Edward Cullen and those other people :) (joking) Seriously, I have invested myself entirely with this series. Even going back to my teens, I cannot remember ever being so "obsessed" (that sounds like such a dirty word) with anything, especially something fiction.

To most outsiders, the Twilight fandom is absurd and something made up for teen-age girls. Twi-hards on the other hand, love this world, whether they are 13 or 35. Its fun to have something to be passionate about, just as Stephenie Meyer was when she wrote each book. Every book was a piece to the bigger picture and for me the bigger picture was Edward and Bella finding a way to be together forever, which in turn meant that true love can do anything. A very important lesson to learn.

Stephenie ended the series with Breaking Dawn. We all know that Bella finally becomes a Cullen in more than one way (if you didn't I suggest you climb out from the rock you have been hiding under). Bella's life as vampire quickly became turbulent and even as a vampire she couldn't escape the threat of losing her own life or existence.

Most of Bella's time as a a cold one was spent preparing for battle and figuring out a way to keep her half breed child alive. Once the battle was fought (or whatever you call that) and everyone was safe the book just kind of ends. Yes everyone is peaceful and happy and Edward finally gets to read Bella's mind, but that's it. Its over. You mean I spent all this time anticipating each book for it to be over like that?!
