Month 5 Mini Challenge: Katrina's Review of Bloody Valentine

Published: December 28, 2010

Buy: Amazon, B&N

Source: Own

Blurb: 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 Bloody Valentine, 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?

Romantic and sensual, Bloody Valentine 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.


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.

Month 4 Mini Challenge: Katrina's Review of Keys to the Repository

Book Review: Keys to the Repository by Melissa de la Cruz

Published: June 29, 2010

Buy: Amazon, B&N

Source: Own

Goodreads Blurb: 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?
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.

Katrina's Month 3 Mini Challange

Okay so here is my post for the month 3 mini challenge.  It's  completely silly, but it was fun. :D

Red Riding Hood made it Halway to the Grave.  She didn't want to Linger on her way to Hex Hall.  The wind blew, and she suppressed a Shiver.  "This is Supernaturally creepy," she thought.

Katrina's Masquerade Mini Challenge

So this mini challenge works great for me.  My friend and I are wanting to have a masquerade for our birthday so bad, so this helped get the creative juices flowing. :D

This beautiful gown by Angela at Glamtastik is beautiful!

It's dark, yet elegant.  Exactly my style!


This mask by The Mask Menagerie is amazing. I love it, it's simple and bold.

This is totally corny, but my dream date would be my hubby. I couldn't imagine experiencing an event like that without him. :D

Dream venue would either be a library or museum.  Seriously some of my favorite places.  Now if only I could make this happen for our birthday shindig. :P
