bookbriefs 's review for:
Bloodlines
by Lindsay Anne Kendal
I really enjoyed this book. A lot happens in it and at the same time, you want even more to happen because you want to find out more about the histories of the families. There are so many unanswered questions and at first that frustrated me, but as the book goes on I think Lindsay does a really nice job of spreading out the answers that she reveals. It was not too slow, but at the same time you only got enough information to keep you on the edge of your seat and engaged in the book.
I loved getting to know the four guys and their families. They are all so different, but work so well together. What makes this book unique is that it is a witch book, with family magic but no covens. I have not read too many books like that.
Ok let's talk characters. More specifically, let's talk guys. I like all 4 of the guys but Jake is taken by someone else right away so he is out of the romantic picture. That leaves 3 guys- Lucian, Tyler, and Danny. I have always been 100% on team Tyler. I just love him, and I think he is the best one out of the four for Keira. He always sticks up for her and he trusts her completely. I just think he is adorable. Keira goes back and forth between the two guys throughout the book and honestly it was a little frustrating for her to just not pick one already!
One thing that did bug me a little bit about the book was the use of british terms. And that is only because it didn't fit with the location. The story takes place in the United States so the british slang seemed a bit off. I also didn't like hearing references to all these manly men "giggling". But other than that, I absolutely loved the book. I couldn't wait to start reading the second one and I am already half way done with Torment (book 2). I'm going to be talking more about Keira in my review of the second book, but just know this...she can kick some serious butt!
Bloodlines was a riveting read, and I couldn't get enough of it. This looks like it is going to be a really good series.
