Another YA series bites the dust...I was never too much into "Blue Bloods" series, but at least first two books were easy to read. This third one took a lot of effort to finish. It probably had a lot to do with the fact that the only thing I was attracted to in Cruz's books was the vampire lore. If in the beginning the lore seemed fresh and original to me, I am now fairly certain Cruz makes stuff up as she goes, without big picture of her world in mind, and this is why I am constantly confused.
Okay, I just have to say that I was really bugged to find out that this is NOT the last book in the Blue Bloods series! Apparently there are 9 books planned in total that was supposed to have been divided into 3 triologies. But this first "triology" is actually going to have 4 books. The next one (and hopefully the end of this particular story) is called "The Van Alen Legacy" and who knows when it's going to be released. Grrrr.Okay, rant over. Aside from that annoyance, I really liked the story....
For those who don't know, the Blue Bloods series is essentially gossip girl meets twilight; Vampires (the Blue Bloods) pretty much compose all of the artistocracy in the world. Their souls are continually stored (through their blood) to be reincarnated life after life. Vampires are descended from the great battle for heaven and on earth serve to keep the balance between the light and the dark- especially those Blue Bloods who are corrupted to the side of the fallen Lucifer. All the while being s...
**POSSIBLE SPOILERS**Ok, what can I say? I love this book :D Seriously. Melissa isn't afraid to put twists in her writing and kill her main characters. And I wasn't that surprised when Lawrence basically said that it'll come down to a fight between Bliss and Schuyler. And I was really sad when Schuyler broke it off with Jack, I read that chapter on bluebloodsbooks.com and it made me soo sad because Jack really does L-O-V-E her. And I hope that her and Jack find a way to make it work in other boo...
Couldn't put it down until it was finished, and I have to admit, it's been awhile since I stayed up past my bedtime just to finish a book.The best comparison I can make is that the Blue Bloods series is Harry Potter meets The Mortal Instruments. Vampirism seems to be the least important part of the novels - instead it's about status, history, and the battle between Heaven and Hell. Sometimes I feel like the vampirism angle was an afterthought - it could easily have been replaced with something e...
Eh. Boring. Zzzzz.Ok, so the first two books were entertaining, the idea of Vampires as fallen angels pretty interesting. But this book was so badly written. She jumped from one thing to the other without giving you a bridge between points. Is like she wanted to make her point in one seating without taking the reader into consideration. Most of the book is written with someone closing their eyes and then weeks have passed and you dont have a connection of what your character has been up to. The
I seriously have no idea why I keep on reading this series. There is NOTHING, literally NOTHING good about it. The first book was okay, but then the series went downhill. In THIS installment, Schuyler (I still have no idea to pronounce her name. Is it like Skyler? Schooler? ?!?!?!!?!?!?!) is off doing more stupid stuff. The other characters are doing stuff, and as the title says, there are REVELATIONS. To be honest, that huge one at the end caught me off guard, and also was a nice twist, but the...
