Still enjoying this teen mystery/romance/vampire series but I'm beginning to wonder how she's going to wrap this up with all the new intrigue introduced in this installment.

Blue Bloods: Revelations continues with the turmoil between the blue bloods and the silver bloods.

Poor Schuyler Van Alen’s ancestry is being called into question. Is she a true blue blood or a silver blood? Either way, most people don’t wish to associate with Schuyler. The worst thing that could possibly happen to Schuyler is that she is now has to make her home in the Force residence. Mimi Force is her arch enemy.

As much as Mimi and Schuyler don’t like each other, they will have to set their differences aside, when the silver bloods descend upon an ancient destination in Rio de Janeiro. What happens next will have Schuyler running for her life. .

I have seen these books everywhere. It seems that vampires have taken over the bookshelves as well as television and movies. So, I decided to finally check out the world of the blue bloods. Let me warn you that if you are thinking about try these books, then you need to start with Blue Bloods, book one in this series. This book continues from the last book, so having never read the first two, I got lost at first. It took me a little bit to figure out what had transpired. I did quickly learn that the blue bloods are considered the elites and the silver bloods are the enemy. Schuyler is the wild card of the bunch. Though, I thought this was a nice world that Melissa de la Cruz created, I found myself no enjoying it as much as I had hoped.

Good one. It has a cliff hanger of a ending. I can't wait till the next book comes out. I think this month or next! Yay!

Disappointing sums up this book in the Blue Blood Series. Some of the more interesting possible subplots didn't really go anywhere and more time should have been spent on the ending. Its not that I didn't enjoy reading this book, I just wanted more.

omg, BLISS! crazyness!!!!!! cant wait to read van alen legacy!!!!!!!!!!

IT WAS AWESOME!!!! I NEED TO READ THE FIRST AND SECOND BOOKS NOW!!!

ok so to start, this book holds a very special place in my heart because its the whole reason i bought the series. the cover was so pretty that i had to buy it, but i might as well buy the whole thing xD!

this book was not as good as the second one shall i say, for a few reasons. from what i remember, 'masquerade' was much more climactic. the last half of 'masquerade' was all rising action, and showed that the ending would be worth reading. whereas with this book, i was not feeling inclined to pick it up and read more, i was just bored.

yes, the whole thing in rio was happening, but i was sure that the climax just was not going to happen as it was portrayed to be something boring, even though schuyler was suspicious. if melissa had written about schuylers suspicion more i would've been so much happier to read, and overall much more intrigued with the whole story.

i feel that there are many parts of the story that melissa couldve used more in the plot, such as the 'mind sending,' while I'm very happy its playing more into the story than the previous books, i wish lawrence would've used them more since we don't get his perspective at all.

another part i wish she wrote about more is the way jack and mimi's relationship is behind doors. we find out in the epilogue that he is abusive and has, throughout many lifetimes, shown more love to allegra and schuyler. this isn't obvious at all through the book and would've been a great side story to see mimi deal with. from a reader's perspective, mimi is seen to me mean and rude because she is jealous of schuyler for receiving some side attention from jack. while in reality, it was thousands of years of infatuation.

i really liked reading that jack doesn't hide his hatred for mimi (when around her), but i was upset to hear how he shows it.

i really enjoyed the surprises i got throughout the book, however many of them weren't backed up by any previous storyline. near the end we are thrown two semi-major plot points (kingsley suspected the "royal" vamp family and the "earthquake" that tried to free the demon). i wish these had been previously mentioned because i was left thinking that i had skimmed the wrong paragraphs and missed something huge.

i think melissa tends to do this a lot. she throws major plot points in one sentence and doesn't acknowledge them ever again.

right after jordan asked bliss if she was still blacking out, i knew that bliss was a silver blood. i was having trouble accepting it because i love her. but what broke my heart was at the end when schuyler said "its just bliss" !!!!! LIKE NOOOO/ :( !!!

also.. are bliss and schuyler sisters??? v confused on that.

over all this is a 4/5. i wish it had more exciting events leading up to the climax.

hopes/predictions for the next book: schuyler will use her newfound human form shapeshifting to sneak around with jack more often!! i really hope so.

This is the 3rd installment of a very cheesy and dramatic vampire series. I’m not exactly expecting highbrow literary masterpiece.
