Book Review- Bloodlines
When alchemist Sydney is ordered into hiding to protect the life of Moroi princess Jill Dragomir, the last place she expects to be sent is a human private school in Palm Springs, California. But at their new school, the drama is only just beginning.
Populated with new faces as well as familiar ones, Bloodlines explores all the friendship, romance, battles and betrayals that made the #1 New York Times bestselling Vampire Academy series so addictive – this time in a part-vampire, part-human setting where the stakes are even higher and everyone’s out for blood.
I and so excited for this series. It will be thrilling to find out where everything will lead. In the last series Richelle Mead broke across boundary lines and it seems she will do it again. After finishing this book I had a hard time sleeping since my mind was roving over all the possibilities. An added bonus for this book is the lack of swearing. Since the book is told by Sydney Sage there are some rather awesome moments of complete misunderstanding. For one super great example of this turn to page 229. Sage is so sure she is interpreting the moment right that she gets it so completely backwards. I suppose knowledge isn’t all it is cracked up to be. She is such a refreshing character. It seems so many of the females right now are hormonal sex fiends. So the books follow the lines of girl sees guy and almost immediately wants to get in his pants. I love how we are watching her discover herself and the possibilities. The pace of this discovery is slow enough as to be a sweet building torture. I just must have more and can’t wait to get the next book.
