"Breaking Dawn" is divided into 3 books and 39 chapters, and it is comprised of 754 pages. The first book, narrated by Bella, contains 7 chapters. The second book is narrated by Jacob and contains 11 chapters, and the third book returns to Bella as the narrator for 21 chapters. The chapters are fairly long, averaging 20 pages in length, and they are titled according to their contents, describing the major event or feeling of that specific chapter. Each chapter is quite detailed, and the amount of time that passes varies from chapter to chapter. Most of the chapters occur in a short period of time, hours, or days, but occasionally, they skim over larger periods of time such as months.
