BREAKING DAWN: Chapter 27-Travel Plans

CHAPTER SUMMARY: Bella makes plans to see the Volturi and then Irina sees Renesmee and takes off. About it.

NOTES/THOUGHTS/REACTIONS:
The chapter opens with Bella doing what she does best: prattling on about nothing in particular. Basically she starts babbling about threads and fates and Meyer uses this as a way to summarize events. Basically the events are that everyone is really happy now. Wolves are cool with Jacob and Bella (and they of course LOVE Renesmee), and then talks about Sue and Leah being a part of the family now. Looks like Charlie and Sue hooked up and Leah is around but of course still a pill because she's a dominant female. Then there's just lots of paragraphs about how awesome Renesmee is and how she's progressing and day to day activities. Snore.
Basically a lot of prattling about plans and such. It's all very boring till suddenly Aro (head of the Volturi for those that were asleep during that chapter) sends a note saying he looks forward to meeting Bella. Please note, this is a couple of months after Alice sent the invitation to the wedding. How slow is the mail in this mixed up universe that Meyer has created where teens don't have cell phones or ipods or laptops?
So the note sends everyone into a panic. Bella decides to go see the Volturi by herself. Wow, that's actually a sound plan from Mrs. Cullen for a change. Then suddenly talk turns into a hunting trip. Okay. Whatever. More talk/scenes that show how awesome Renesmee is. Then suddenly Irina shows up. For those that don't remember her as well, she's the one from the Denali clan who resents the Cullens cause they killed Laurant. Anyway, she sees Renesmee in action and then takes off. Bella assumes she's going too...I'm not sure what she's assuming here. But either way she runs after her and of course doesn't catch her. Mentions it to Edward and co. End chapter. Well, at least something is finally happening.

WORD LIST: contention
GENERAL ANNOYANCES: I took mythology a lot more seriously since I'd become a vampire.-Good for you. Why didn't you when you were human and dating a vampire?
I'd been reading Tennyson to her one night-Meyer, name dropping classics doesn't make your book look better, PLEASE STOP IT. Also, complicated poetry to a kid? Seriously?
