THE SHORT SECOND LIFE OF BREE TANNER

...is what I'm reading right now.
And I'm up to page 26 but I just thought I'd make a few comments.

So, basically, what I know is that Victoria has created a whole army of newborns just to kill one person: Bella Swan. (Oh and to get revenge on Edward and co, for killing her mating partner/boyfriend/person who liked to sniff her hair.)
And that's it.
The funny thing is, Victoria hasn't even met these newborns, the newborns don't know her name, they think of her as her.
They know Riley, they've met Riley, Riley is a sensible vampire and is in charge of some of the newborns.

So, did Victoria just make this huge army of vampires just to defeat Bella and co? 
Or are there other people?
Maybe Victoria has so many enemies and she wants to get back at them all. Maybe people have blackmailed her or ran over her dog. Maybe she's had a multitude of lovers in the past and they've all been killed. Maybe she wants another boyfriend and is making a series of newborns to choose from (which doesn't explain Bree's presence, maybe Victoria is bisexual?). Maybe Victoria wants to rule the world and can only do so with a huge army worshipping her and bringing her cocktails. Maybe...

Maybe I should continue reading the book and the answer could lie in there.
Bye.

P.S. Have a picture of Daisy's butt. Enjoy!
You know you love it.

what happens to this vampire army when they fail to kill Bella and Co.?
Shouldn't they be rampaging the world and killing people while Bella's having her baby? I never read the fourth book though, so I don't know. Maybe it's just about a whole lot of vampire killin' and totally not about weddings and demon spawn.

No, unfortunately the last book is about weddings and demon/vampire spawn. It's pretty boring, you're not missing much by not reading it.

The whole newborn army gets killed by the Cullen family and the wolves in Eclipse, because the newborns are unskilled and don't really know how to work as a team. Although Bree survives and surrenders so that the Cullens don't kill her, but the Volturi kill her anyway. :(
