Blurb: <span id="freeText5248986838159058911">The Blue Bloods have
powers beyond human comprehension: strength that defies logic, speed
that cannot be captured on film, the ability to shape-shift, and more.
But in matters of the heart, no one, not even those immortal vampires,
has total control. In <i>Bloody Valentine</i>, part of the
best-selling Blue Bloods series, author Melissa de la Cruz offers three
tantalizing stories that delve deep into the love lives of the
all-powerful vamps (and their Red Blood friends) from New York's Upper
East Side. Might a witchy new girl help cure Oliver's broken heart? How
did Allegra fall in love with a human? Will Schuyler and Jack finally be
bonded?<br /><br />Romantic and sensual, <i>Bloody Valentine</i> reveals
the undying love, the hope and devastation, and the lust and longing
that have defined the Blue Bloods throughout history. Prepare to be
swept off your feet.</span><br />

I
think the story I loved the most out of this novella was Oliver's. The
poor guy just wanted to be with his love. We did get a glimpse into
the witches from Witches of East End. I haven't read those books yet,
but meeting Freya makes me want to. Allegra's story is heart breaking.
I've never been one to figure out why you can't choose for love. I know
the circumstances, but still. Also, Schuyler still seems to annoy me.
She bugged me in Misguided Angel, and does so in this one. Although, I
appreciate the craftiness in making her dress. That made my crafty
side smile. :D Lost in Time is next, and was one of my faves, so I'll be
happy to finally get to jump into it next weekend.

Blurb:<span id="freeText17579304273464409057">After inheriting the
dark Van Alen Legacy, Schuyler fled to Florence with her forbidden love,
Jack. Now the two of them must embark on the mission Schuyler was
destined to complete: to find and protect the five remaining gates that
guard the earth from Lucifer, lord of the Silver Bloods.<br /><br />Back in
New York, Mimi has been elected Regent of a crumbling coven. Struggling
with her heartache over the loss of Kingsley and with her overwhelming
desire to destroy Jack, she must focus all of her energy on a perilous
new threat. Vampires are being abducted and their captors are planning
to burn them alive online...for all the world to see. Help arrives in
the form of Deming Chen, a Venator from Shanghai, who must untangle the
web of deceptions before the killers strike again.<br /><br />As the young
vampires struggle for the survival of the coven, they uncover a deadly
secret, a truth first discovered by Schuyler’s mother during the
Renaissance but kept buried for centuries. And as the Blue Blood enclave
weakens yet further, fate leads Schuyler to a terrible choice that will
ultimately map the destiny of her heart.</span><br />

<br />
<span id="freeText17579304273464409057">I
began to really like Mimi in this book. She seems more "human." She
truly cares for the Coven, and it's members. She also realizes that she
doesn't really hate Oliver all the much. </span><br />
<br />
<span id="freeText17579304273464409057">Oh,
Deming. She's a kick-ass Venator. She does her job to the best of her
abilities, and doesn't give up. I completely forgot she was a key
player in this book. </span><br />
<br />
<span id="freeText17579304273464409057">Schuyler
annoyed me. I think it's because she is so needy when it comes to
Jack. I'm used to her being strong and self assured. </span><br />
<br />
<span id="freeText17579304273464409057">We get a peek at Nephilim, and I had a ton of questions regarding possibilities with Bliss after I finished reading. </span><br />
<br />
<span id="freeText17579304273464409057">It
was great seeing a lot more of Mimi showing emotions that do not
include snobbery. I want to start Lost in Time NOW! But I'll be a good
girl, and wait until December 1st to start it. </span><br />

Goodreads Blurb: <span id="freeText7612793321830030527">Lavish parties.
Passionate meetings in the night. Bone-chilling murders. Midterms. The
day-to-day life of Schuyler Van Alen and her Blue Bloods friends (and
enemies) is never boring. But there's oh-so-much more to know about
these beautiful and powerful teens. Below the streets of Manhattan,
within the walls of the Repository, exists a wealth of revealing
information about the vampire elite that dates back before the
Mayflower. In a series of short stories, journal entries, and
never-before-seen letters, New York Times bestselling author Melissa de
la Cruz gives her hungry fans the keys to the Repository and an even
more in-depth look into the secret world of the Blue Bloods. Won't you
come inside?</span><br />

This novella read like a text book. I know it's a kind of who's who
among Blue Bloods, but it was kind of dry. I did enjoy Kingsley's
remarks in some areas. ;) I was stoked about the short stories in
here. I know I've read the one with Dylan before, but it was great
seeing the emotion of Jack on their last night at Perry Street. I
recommend this for those that want to know more about the characters.
Also, if you have a hard time with what the words in the Sacred Language
mean, this book has a nifty little appendix with the definitions.

I
forgot just how much comes to light in this book. My heart actually
aches for Mimi. She allows some of her walls to come down. And poor
Bliss. She has to try so hard to be present in her own body. This is now
my favorite so far. We have so many questions answered, even as we have
more that have now come up. Oliver also proves how great of a friend he
is to Schuyler, and how much he loves her. I'm anxious to see what
happens in Misguided Angel. I don't really remember that book very well
so it'll be a nice refresher.Katrina @ Bookish Thingshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09631658184690444835noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3462080024341606437.post-36209319055614931542012-10-09T10:40:00.001-05:002012-10-09T10:40:53.376-05:00Month 4 Mini Challenge<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This sampler will give you a refresher of the previous 6 books. This way you are able to go into Gates of Paradise without trying to remember what happened. Or, you can join the Read-A-Long. ;) You also get a first look at Wolf Pact. The sampler has the first chapter!!!! <br />
<br />
As far as I can tell, this is only available on Kindle. If you don't own a kindle, you can download the app on your phone, tablet or computer in order to read it. <br />
<br />
This is the link, and I believe it is free. :D<br />

Goodreads Blurb: <span id="freeText1209743560642370862">Schuyler Van Alen's
blood legacy has just been called into question: is the young vampire in
fact a Blue Blood, or is it the sinister Silver Blood that runs through
her veins? As controversy swirls, Schuyler is left stranded in the
Force household, trapped under the same roof as her cunning nemesis,
Mimi Force, and her forbidden crush, Jack Force.<br /><br />When an ancient
place of power is threatened in Rio de Janeiro, however, the Blue Bloods
need Schuyler on their side. The stakes are high, the battle is bloody;
and through it all Schuyler is torn between duty and passion, love and
freedom.<br /><br />Romance, glamour, and vampire lore collide in the highly
anticipated third book in best-selling author Melissa de la Cruz's Blue
Bloods series.</span><br />

<span id="freeText1209743560642370862">Wow, I forgot a lot of major things that went down in this book. Revelations ends up being the turning point of the series. </span><br />
<br />
<span id="freeText1209743560642370862">Many
of the characters have to make decisions that change things forever.
Revelations is bit more emotional than the previous books. The
characters face tougher decisions with major consequences. Schuyler was
not my favorite character in this book. She was selfish, and only
thought of herself. She never really thought through her actions and
the hurt it could cause other people. </span><br />
<span id="freeText1209743560642370862"><br /></span>
<span id="freeText1209743560642370862">There's
some major drama in this book also. Bliss's family has secrets. Charles
Force pretty much loses his will to do anything. And Schuyler is put
into a position she knew would always come. If the first two books
didn't have you hooked, this one definitely will. I put the book down
thinking, "What the hell?" </span>Katrina @ Bookish Thingshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09631658184690444835noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3462080024341606437.post-22889551709603383642012-09-09T13:17:00.000-05:002012-09-10T10:46:07.551-05:00Month 3: Revelations Mini Challenge<h2>

<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">
How could we not do a Wolf Pact challenge with its release being this month. :) Even though there has been much ranting (on my part) and confusion (with both of us) we have decided to go ahead with the Wolf Pact challenge.</div>
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>What you will be winning?</b> Well it is your choice. Since US only has e-copies available only (sigh, I know!) You can have either the e-copy or we can order a UK paperback edition from TBD. The only problem with that might be major waiting. So we leave that up to you. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>How can you win Wolf Pact?</b> I am so glad you asked.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This challenge is simple, but you have to put on your thinking caps. Here are the details.</div>
<ul>
<li><div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Part One</b>- Go through your books...find ones that have wolves or werewolves or hellhounds as main characters or part of the story. Use the titles to make a story of your own. (if there is a book you don't have, but want to use it for your story, that is fine. Just try to use books you have because it is used in part two.) The story only has to be 4-6 sentences long. Just be creative!</div>
</li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Example: <span style="color: #990000;">Once in a Full Moon </span><span style="color: black;">a girl is </span><span style="color: #990000;">Stolen. </span><span style="color: black;">She is </span><span style="color: black;"> taken to the </span><span style="color: #990000;">Sisters Red </span><span style="color: black;">forest. There she is a </span><span style="color: #990000;">Bitten </span><span style="color: black;">and cursed to become the predator or the </span><span style="color: #990000;">Prey. </span><span style="color: black;">**cheesy, I know, but you get what we mean. </span></div>
<ul>
<li><div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Part Two</b>- Take a picture of the stack of books showing the titles and add it in with your story. Also if the book is on your ereader. Just add that to the pile you take the picture of. If you have a interesting way of wanting to add in your ebooks, go ahead!! </div>
</li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>

Goodreads Blurb: <span id="freeText17192422586748994960">Schuyler Van Alen wants
an explanation for the mysterious deaths of young vampires. With her
best friend, Oliver, Schuyler travels to Italy in the hope of finding
the one man who can help - her grandfather. Meanwhile, back in New York,
preparations are feverishly underway for the Four Hundred Ball, an
exclusive gala hosted by the city's wealthy, powerful, and <em>unhuman</em> - a true Blue Blood affair.<br /><br />But
it's at the after-party, a masquerade ball thrown by the cunning Mimi
Force, that the real danger lurks. Hidden behind the masks is a
revelation that will forever change the course of a young vampire's
destiny.<br /><br />Rich with glamour, attitude, and vampire lore, this
second installment in the Blue Bloods saga will leave readers thirsting
for more.</span><br />

<span id="freeText17192422586748994960">Wow! I forgot how much happened in <i>Masquerade</i>. A lot of the questions I had in Blue Bloods were answered, but boy have a lot of new ones arisen. </span><br />
<br />
<span id="freeText17192422586748994960">I
thought Kingsley came into the picture later on in the series, but no.
He was causing problems for the Duchesne Blue Bloods. You don't really
know what to think of him. Schuyler also begins to learn how to harness
her vampiric powers. </span><br />
<span id="freeText17192422586748994960"><br />
</span><br />
<span id="freeText17192422586748994960">There are
a lot of twists in this book. A shift in Oliver and Sky's relationship,
as well as Mimi & Jack's. I loved re-reading this installment and
found myself sympathizing with Mimi. I know, you're shocked! She's still
a Queen B, but she also shows some vulnerability. It's nice to see that
side of her. Bliss finds a picture of her mother, and that raises all
kinds of questions. I don't remember the explanation so I can't wait to
see what it is. I'm stoked to see the emotional ups and downs that are
sure to happen in <i>Revelations</i> next month. I also wonder why Jack
held off on his moment with Mimi in Venice??? The answers will be
waiting for me to read next month. I hope. :D <br />

Summary: Watch out for the explosive finale in the Blue Bloods series.<br />
The seventh and final novel in the epic saga.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All your questions answered. . . All the mysteries explained. . . Friends reunited. . . Hearts broken. . . Will Bliss return with the Hellhounds? Will Schuyler save the Blue Bloods? Who will live? Who will die?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<span style="color: #3d85c6;">Katrina's Thoughts: </span><br />
<span style="color: #3d85c6;">I love that in all of the covers the girl (Schuyler) isn't looking forward. The flower in her hair adds to the softness/romance that we're hoping to see in this book. Jack was on the cover of Lost in Time, but like on that cover, GoP doesn't have a face shot of him. So that makes me wonder if maybe this person could be Oliver??? So basically I just want to know who the stud muffin is. :P Each cover has a silhouette of the city where most of the story takes place. I can't wait to see what events take place on the streets of London. </span><br />
<br />
Elizabeth's Thoughts: I did this for a Cover Loves last week and here is what I had to say. I love the simple, but attractive covers for Blue Bloods. They are always beautiful. I am thinking this is Schuyler and Jack? I always love how at the bottom of the book they have a scene or town, it brings a dramatic flare to the covers. I can't tell if he is going in for a bite or a kiss on her neck, but either way I love the cover.</div>
