Hey, I'm Oummah.

~ You might have heard this common saying 'Never judge a book by its cover..' and its right you shouldn't, but the covers's still important, as it always illustrates something about the story in the book, an incident or some of the characters..

~ So I was wondering what the meaning behind the cover of Breaking Dawn could be, I really like twilight covers as there really open and could stand for many things.



^ There might be some other versions, like the one with the engagement ring, but this cover could covey loads of meanings unlike the others.

~ Here's what I think it means (only my opinion); but reading what Meyer said about the red ribbon on the cover of Eclipse.. > "The ribbon for me is about the idea of you're trying to break away from your old life. And it's never a clean cut. There's always some of those threads that are so hard to break and for me that's Bella thinking that she can just walk away from her human life and it's really not that simple."

^ I think the two pawns represent Bella, the transition of her becoming a vampire form human as as the wedding happens early in the book I reckon the rest of the story is how Bella deals with becoming a proper vampire.

~ What do you guys think?

Well, the white piece is a queen... so like u said, its the transformation of Bella from the blushing, innocent human to the strong, cold and white vampire.

very true, it's a queen, and it must be belle, and she is turning into a vampire,
I have feelings though she is gonna be an ungrateful vampire to edward 🤔
as she said she wont remember anything else, but just the lust for blood, it's gonna be tough for Edward😒

Yeah, but there love is much greater then that! They will make it through. Nothing is tough for Edward. Bells loves Edward too much to be ungrateful even if her lust for blood is great, her love for Edward is much greater. I also think that the cover is showing Bellas transformation into a vampire.

thanks for increasing the hope, it's a great help😳
one more thing I had kind of forgotten about Bella's brain, Alice said you are safe in your brain that means she wont be like other newborn vampires, she'll remember everything even that jacob though😡
I really want her to totally forget jacob but "sigh" anyways, but atleast she wont take much time to recover that's a good thing👏👏👏 and there will be bettles hopefully this time she can participate atleast a lil, although I love Edward saving her all the way😳

No problem hope is all we have until we read BD !
I don't think Bella will ever forget Jacob though lol
He helped her when Edward couldn't
I'm glad Edward will always be with her
in the future though!

i don't think there is a meaning behind the cover of BD, cause new moon and eclipse never had a meaning to their covers...
the only one that has a meaning behind it is the twilight cover...cause stephenie got to chose the cover for that one...

i agree wid u anisha,they will make it through and edward is strong and nuthing is hard for him!
and i dont think bella will forget anything from her human life,maybe she will get a natural power that will give her an ability to have sum control over sumthing like her human life like her memories and all,but im not sure.
i have a feeling that bella will get a very strong power cuz no one can read her mind and thats very rare,so she will get a rare power thats powerful at the same time.
