Okay I finally finished it this morning. What an excellent book and for sure leaves it open for another. And yes..I was crying too.

The new Walmart out in Riverton had a Breaking Dawn party the night the book was coming out at midnight. I hadn't heard about a trilogy before either but that's what the coordinator of the event that night said. But having finished the book, I see how it could open it up for another one.

The same with Harry Potter when new books were coming out. To promote the first night the book was available, many places like Barnes and Noble etc had parties. You could come dressed as your favorite character. All while waiting for that Cinderella moment of midnight when they could start selling the book.

Ask Siouxz. She and MissChatterBox went to one too.
