My review "The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner"

The new novella by Stephanie Meyer is about the newborn vampire Bree Tanner. This really gives the reader perspective into what life is like for a vampire, especially one that is not a Cullen and not a vegetarian. There is also another vampire that is not mentioned in Ecplise but is important to who Bree becomes at the end: Diego. At the beginning, Diego befriends Bree and becomes close towards the end. Sadly we can only imagine what could have been because Diego is killed before the fight.

The novella also shows how naive the rest of the vampires are. Besides Bree and Fred (the only vampire in the group that has 'talent'), the other newborns believed everything Riley (the leader and Victoria's lover) told them. To the end, the newborns didn't know they didn't stand a chance against the Cullens.

For those that read Ecplise, Bree is a bad vampire that decided to give up. After you read Bree's story, you realize she was never a bad vampire to begin with. You feel bad for Bree at the end because she lost Diego, the only person she cared for. She also lost her freedom because of what happens at the end but she went, knowing 2 things: Riley paid for Diego's death and she realized not all vampires (especially the Cullens) are bad.

I recommend this book to every Twilight fan and I will be the first to say "Team Bree!" LOL.
