Favourite Book Series - Bloodlines

Hey

 

This post is a follow up to my favourite book series (Vampire Academy) and I have to say that this books series might just be better than Vampire Academy; but then again it's might be (yes it is) because a certain character is more central in this series. But more to that later ;)

The series is a spin off and kind of sequel to Vampire Academy (see my post on this series here) and is quite hard to explain without giving too much away of what happens at the end of the first series, but I'll try my best.

 

This series follows Sydney, who you would have met before, and her complicated life being and Alchemist.  She and along with a couple of other characters readers have already met are in Palm Springs to protect and hide Jill for a reason you'd know if you have read the last VA book (see how hard it is!)  Throughout the series we see Sydney lax in her prejudice against vampires (and discover a new skill) which leads her to fall in love with (my favourite character) Adrian.  I don't know why I love Adrian, I just do, he has great one-liners, a snarky attitude but at the same time is sweet; you just can't help loving him.  He is 'one' of the reasons why I love this series more as he *spoiler* gets the girl and there's just more of him.

 

Along with the whole vampire element it also is just kind of like a teen drama with each character having their own problems with relationships, high school etc.

So far there is only four books published and the next one Silver Shadows comes out soon.  The author posted the first chapter online and it was AMAZING can't wait for it :D

Hope you all enjoyed this post. I've pretty much read every book I have and need something new to read so I would love to hear any recommendations of any series I can get obsessed about.

Favourite Book Series - Vampire Academy

Hey

So when I have some spare time I love to just lay on my bed and read a good book.  I've pretty much read every book I currently have so I start re-reading series that I really love and never get bored of.  I thought I might share some series that I love.

Vampire Academy - Richelle Mead

 

I got into the series when I was gifted the first two books for Christmas a couple of years ago.  I hadn't heard of the series before and was unsure if I like them.  By the time I was in the middle of reading the first book I was hooked and needed to get the rest of the series.

 

The storyline of the series follows Rose Hathaway, a Dhampir, who are half-human, half-vampire whose jobs are to protect the Moroi, the good vampires.  The books chronicle her adventures with her best friend Lissa, a royal Moroi princess who she has a physic bond with, as well Dimitri, her teacher who she is in love with and mostly takes place within the walls of St. Vladimir's Academy. 

 

The books are humorous, with Rose and Christian having some great one-liners but also has a serious side with characters being killed, going through some really serious problems and dealing with the constant threat of Strigoi, the bad vampires.

 

The series also has a love triangle element, which pretty much every book and movie has these days, but it's kind of clear who Rose is leaning towards more throughout the books. But it still sucks that the guy you like more in the series (Adrian) gets his heart broken.  But don't fear things look up for him is the sequel series, which I will do a post on.

 

Hope you all enjoyed this post. I've seen a few blogs do the Beauty Scenario Tag, so I might possibly do that for my next post, maybe ;)
