I received this from Disney-Hyperion for review.
This is book 4 of the Blue Bloods series by Melissa De La Cruz
Pros
- I like Mimi in this one. She does a cool thing by helping Kingsley track down the Silver Bloods. She kinda rocked in that position. Until the end of the book.
- Schuyler’s love triangle gets messy but resolved.
- Oliver. Oh, how I <3 Oliver. He could be my familiar any day.
- Silver Bloods. Yup, they are tricky things. They made this book interesting.
- Passion. There are some episodes of overbearing hormones. Had my toes curling. Hmmm, Jack. 😉
- Intense scenes. There were a few OMG! moments. Great action scenes.
Cons
- The book ended with a new found hatred for Mimi. I could strangle her. I only hope she decides otherwise.
- Death. More death! Melissa is cruel to her readers!
Overall
This addition was a bit slower for me. I enjoyed it but it seemed kinda drawn out or something. The ending was terrible, meaning I must read the next book because it has to resolve its self as a happy ending. Won’t it? 🙁
Trailer
SPOILER ALERT! Don’t watch this trailer if you haven’t read this series….holy spoilers!
