Revelations review

Revelations (Blue Bloods, #3)Revelations by Melissa de la Cruz

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Review from goodreads.

Have you ever wondered what secrets lurk behind the closed doors of New York City's wealthiest families? They're powerful, they're famous... they're undead.

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.

When one of the Gates of Hell is breached by Silver Bloods in Rio de Janeiro, however, the Blue Bloods will need Schuyler on their side. The stakes are high; the battle is bloody; and through it all, Carnavale rages on. And in the end, one vampire's secret identity will be exposed in a revelation that shocks everyone.

My Review:

Revelations - the third installment in the Blue Bloods saga came out quite well.I enjoyed reading the book and was eager to find what's coming up next every time I turned a page.

The plot was great and the characters lives were a little bit more magnified.Too much description on clothing and such was still there, but it was easily overlapped by the great story.

Schuyler is forced to live with the Force twins under the same roof.Schuyler and Jack's romance starts right around then too. The situation becomes quite intense because Schuyler was now romancing with both - Oliver, her conduit+familiar and Jack.I fell really sad for Oliver when he found out about Jack and Schuyler and also feel angry at Schuyler.

Then the Blue Bloods were attacked in Rio De Janiero and many of them were killed. With her luck Mimi is one of the survivors.But the Silver Bloods accomplish in doing their task - setting one of the greatest enemy of Blue Bloods free.

The books ends with a shocking truth, the identity of a vampire is revealed.All of the missing pieces from the first two installments fall into place.I was so stunned, for a moment I just sat their reading the whole ending part again.

Revelation ends with tragic deaths, a heartbreak and an agonizing cliff - hanger and leaves the readers thirsting for more [ at least it left me thirsting for more ].The series is getting better and better with each new book.

  1. Hi, just some friendly constructive criticism. Lose the cursive writing. It is impossible to read. Go with one of the basics. Along with that, and I'm not sure if this is due solely on the font style or not, the links on the sidebars and the headers clash with the background due to the extreme closeness in their shades of colour.

    Umm...best wishes for the blog though! I know my blog doesn't look amazing, and I'm not asking for a fight or anything. Shoot me a message when your blog is no longer under construction, okay? If length is any indicator of quality in review, you may have potential yet. ;)
