Blue Bloods

Review Time! My friend has been telling me to read this for ages and I finally picked it up last week and read it! I will tell you straight up - I did not enjoy it as much as I thought I will! Now this "friend" was the same "friend" who recommended me The Vampire Academy series which is the best vampire series out there! So I'm a bit disappointed in this one since it was probably one of my least favourite vampire novels!

Short Story - Too much description, too much designer brand not enough solid story!

Long Story- I don't really know what all this has to do with vampires because three quarters of the book was just descibing the inside of someones wardrobe or what a penthouse looks like. The other quarter was just that was about vampires just couldn't cover the whole point of vampires for the whole book! The book would have made a better teen drama/ chick lit then vampire paranormal. it wasn't terrible but it defeats the purpose of paranormal because all it was about was the inside of some vampires wardrobe and how awesome parties are! Um, not alot of romance either so ... Anyway in short ( or long) I didn't really enjoy this book :( Rating 2/5

  2. That's too bad. I love Vampire Academy and while I didn't think BB was as good I still enjoyed it. If I recall correctly they get better as the series goes along and now I'm hooked. Unfortunately Jack just doesn't do it for me as much as Dmitri and Adrian.

  3. Aww, I'm sorry you didn't like it! I was sort of ont he fence with Blue Bloods but the series does pick up in the next books.

    But oh well, to each it's own, right?

  4. I'm with you on this. I kept wondering when the vampire part of the book was going to show up. And when it did, it was an interesting concept, but not enough to keep me wanting more. Here's my review of it: http://afairysplayground.blogspot.com/2010/09/blue-bloods-by-melissa-de-la-cruz.html
