Epilogue: An Occasion

What is the Epilogue mainly about?

Who cuts in on Edward and Bella's dance?

Why was Jacob at the Forks High School prom?

What do Bella and Edward talk about outside of the dance?

Look at the section of the epilogue where Alice dresses Bella for the prom. When Bella complains, the author writes, "…she reminded me that she didn't have any memories of being human, and asked me not to ruin her vicarious fun."

In this context, what does "vicarious" mean?

Look at the section of the epilogue where Bella recalls that Rosalie still seems to hate her. Stephenie Meyer writes, "…I shook my head to dispel the direction my thoughts had taken…"

In this context, what is the definition of "dispel"?

Look at the section of the epilogue where Bella and Jacob attempt to dance. The author writes, "…the recent growth spurt had left him looking gangly and uncoordinated…."

In this context, what does "uncoordinated" mean?

Were there any events or words that still aren't clear to you?
