“The necklace. Lucifer’s Bane. The emerald hung in a chain over her heart. Somehow she had never returned it to her father‘s safe. Somehow she had gotten into the habit of wearing it everywhere.” (Pg. 61)
Perhaps long overdue. Once again, Melissa de la Cruz amazes me. I won’t lie though, Revelations is definitely not my favorite book in this series–but it is definitely jam packed with information which really helps you fill in the missing pieces.
However, there are many WTF moments. To be quite honest, I am going to need to read the Blue Bloods series again. While I do not mind taking notes–I actually enjoy it–for this being a teen/young adult book, you really have to pay attention. I would not generally say the following about a novel for young adults– it makes you think. You really have to pay attention to get every single detail, otherwise, you won’t understand the plot points or character developments within the novel.
Now, this Lucifer’s daughter business–I thought my Grandmother had it pegged down. Yeah. Nope. That title apparently has been given to one of the characters that I loved most. I’m quite sad actualy. I thought I was going to be able to hate Mimi Force even more–but that won’ t be happening unfortunately. Oh! And Jack Force–you are an Archie Andrews–Betty and Veronica. What the Hell man?! Really. Truly. What the Hell.
As you can tell, I’ve become more invested in this series than I previously thought I would be. If you like Amelia Atwater-Rhodes or Annette Kurtis-Clause, you’ll like this series. In any case, I did enjoy Revelations, I really did. Lots of turns and hella more twists. I’d say 3 or 3.5 out 5.

[…] in this novel, it is defintely more jam packed than the first three: Blue Bloods, Masquerade, and Revelations. I did not put it down except to go to sleep–it only took me a day to finish 368 pages of […]
contains SPOILER for those who have not read:
OMG SHE IS THE DAUGHTER OF LUCIFER?!?!?! DOES THIS MEAN ALLEGRA HAD A CHILD WITH LUCIFER!?!?!?! (rhetorical please don’t tell me yet)
this is intense. wow.
Please continue to read my friend and cherished reader. hahaaa
Also, I am feeling some sympathy for Mimi in terms of being with Jack. Jack needs to make a decision.
Or maybe Mimi needs a new guy???? Let me know when you finish Revelations… there is something you need to read… teehee
Oh I am done with rev. 1/3 through VanAlenLegacy, what must I read?
VAN ALEN LEGACY
SPOILER:
in terms of so far in VAL i am seeing that maybe Kingsley is a good bet for Mimi, but still have hostility towards Jack.

i hope you can get there. this happened right before mimi and jack met at the end of revelations. it is somewhere on the blue bloods or melissa’s website. omg.
i loooove mimi with kingsley.
Okay I have read it, but I still have little sympathy for Jack. Idk exactly why. As I continue to read VAL I see more and more of a “human” side to Mimi and want her to be with Kingsley, but I still do prefer Sky + Oliver together, hmmm. Sorry Jack. haha
You finished reading what? Jack’s story? Saaaad day. Jack! We must win Kala over!!!
Finished Jacks story.
But then again it seems I always go for [in stories] the friend- safer choice- sticks around- cutemorethanmodelish with a lot of devotion and you seem to like the mysterious- rich- handsome- slightly scandalous guy who is a little off. Not that I don’t see the appeal, but I find characters like Oliver more appealing coughcoughjacobblackversusedwardcullencoughcough. haha, but who knows maybe I will eventually like Jack and Sky together better. and on a different book note, I think I honestly was Team Switzerland until I saw the movies, Robert Pattinson / the movie portrayal is just not that lovable. but that can be all I say about a totally different series lo siento for the side track.
It’s all good. haha
I think Jack and Schuyler are going to create something HUGE. It is, quite honestly, the only reason them being together would have such a significant impact upon the vampire world.
