Review: Spirit Bound and The Last Sacrifice (Vampire Academy #5 and #6) by Richelle Mead

Posted October 7, 2013 by Wendy in Reviews / 1 Comment

I’m not putting in the synopsis for these two because it may be spoiler-y for those who haven’t read the previous books. (I know, because I mistakenly read the synopsis for #6 before I had finished reading #5 and had a minor spoiler). Yes, I finished these forever ago but I’ve been putting off getting a review together because it’s just so hard to put into words how perfect I thought these last two books were in the series! I […]

Review: Sanctum by Sarah Fine

You guys, I adored Sanctum! I’ve always been partial to paranormal books and this one was fantastic! Lela Santos knows that she needs to rescue her best friend Nadia from hell. So she willingly walks through the Suicide Gates to go looking for Nadia. I loved the way that this city was described. It’s desolate and reeks of despair. Every single person there is there because they’ve taken their own life and now that they’re in that city, they become […]

Review: Shadow Kiss by Richelle Mead

Shadow Kiss was my favorite one of the series! Is it because we see lots of Dimitri? Hmmm…. perhaps. =) I loved this one so much, just seeing Dimitri and Rose’s forbidden love. They can’t be together. And yet, it’s the one thing that seems so right in their messed up world! Dimitri made my heart kind of seize and flutter or some kind of arrhythmic activity — bottom line, he was affecting my heart in a big way. I […]

Review: Frostbite by Richelle Mead

Since most of you guys have read the VA series, this will be mostly my reactions rather than a “review”. I loved Rose’s attitude and kick ass demeanor in Vampire Academy and we get to see more of that in Frostbite! I like Rose because she has such a fiery and snarky personality. But she doesn’t stay the same, you see her start to mature in this one and I loved that. Speaking of things I love, Dimitri, guardian and duster-clad […]

Review: Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead

Posted July 30, 2013 by Wendy in Reviews / 6 Comments

I know, I know. I have JUST recently read the Vampire Academy series. Shannon at Twilight Sleep and Judith at Paper Riot persuaded me to get the book to read and I absolutely loved it! First thing I’ll address is that there’s a lot of people who mention similarities from VA to Jennifer Armentrout’s Covenant series and consequently don’t like one or the other. I’ll just say that sure, there’s a half thing going on, and yes, there’s a school […]
