The Fiery Heart by Richelle Mead (Bloodlines #4)
*SPOILERS AHEAD*
Let me start out by stating the obvious… I am a huge Vampire Academy fan. Richelle Mead is a genius. And she loves some serious forbidden love nonsense. She did it with Dimitri and Rose.Now she’s doing it withAdrian and Sydney! And I’m going to be totally honest… I like Adrian and Sydney a lo t better thank Rose and Dimitri’s love. My heart broke a million times over for Adrian when Rose dumped him. Yes, Adrian isn’t a saint but he had seriois potential of being an amazing boyfriend. And you see that in Fiery Hearts. You see his struggle to want to be useful and be helpful, to contribute… he’s changed so much from the superficial cute pompous ass that we met way back in Vampire Academy book 1 I believe. He has become this creative, thoughtful person who has finally started thinking of others instead of himself.
One of my beefs is that book 4 in Vampire Academy is when the shit really started hitting the fan. It was when Rose and Dimitri did the deed aka sexy stuff went down. And… tada… this is the 4th book in the series and the mention of sexy time is literally all over the place. So you have a pretty good sense the big scene is coming… no pun, maybe pun intended… so you are just waiting and waiting for sexy time and then *throws shit at the fan*. I was shockes Richellw delayed so much I was actually waiting for craziness to happen sooner. Good job Richelle! But still rather predictable. Its kinda like those scary 70s movies. Jason or Freddy or Micheal kill the kids who just got their rocks off. Kinda like that. Giving the message “don’t have premature sex or you die” dum duhmmm duuuhhhbmmmmmmmmmmm.
That message kinda pisses me the fuck off a little. Not that I like Teen Mom 45 or anything but life will be ok if you enjoy yourself a little with protection.
I digress… sorry… ok so have sex big bad happens. This was one of my favorite books of bother series. It was well written. Lots of mushy scenes. I’m defiantly team Syndian/Aidney. And team Jiddie. This book is full of forbidden love every page you turn. I hope the final message is love will prevail.
I’d like to give Richelle a message… last serieskilled Mason prettt quickly… can you not kill ant other major chatacters please! That would be nice if everyone can live happier ever after, after the hell I am sure you are going to put them through after this shit will go down in 2 books.
Be good. Kepp reading. Until the next time…
