The epic conclusion to Richelle Mead's New York Times bestselling Bloodlines series is finally here...

Sydney Sage is an Alchemist, one of a group of humans who dabble in magic and serve to bridge the worlds of humans and vampires. They protect vampire secrets—and human lives.

After their secret romance is exposed, Sydney and Adrian find themselves facing the wrath of both the Alchemists and the Moroi in this electrifying conclusion to Richelle Mead’s New York Times bestselling Bloodlines series. When the life of someone they both love is put on the line, Sydney risks everything to hunt down a deadly former nemesis. Meanwhile, Adrian becomes enmeshed in a puzzle that could hold the key to a shocking secret about spirit magic, a secret that could shake the entire Moroi world.
Taschima's POV:

First thing to know about The Ruby Circle is that this is not the end by any means. I am almost 100% sure Richelle Mead is going back to the VA world, at some point in the future, and about 95% sure that her story will continue under Declan (new character you will come to love). Ruby Circle was a nice fitting ending to the Bloodlines series, it managed to cover all its bases and create a nice set up for the future of the series. A lot of nice surprises were revealed [spoiler] dhampires having babies! Thanks to bringing back people from the Strogoi state those people are infused with Spirit magic, which allowed the dhampirs to pro create. So excited for what this means for Rose and Dimitri![/spoiler], and a lot of old characters made a very long lasting appearance. Every plot line and crevice was visited and solved, laying to rest the story of Adrian and Sydney (in a very good note). I am going to miss Sydney, if not Adrian (was never much of a fan, even in the previous series), because she was the more relatable character of the series and one of the strongest female characters in the VA world. I am sure going to miss her.

While I felt like the "evil to be beat" in this one book was a bit anti climactic after the problems they had to solve in Silver Shadows I still enjoyed Ruby Circle. It allowed for Richelle Mead to set up the future of the world quite nicely while tying up loose ends. It also gave us the happily ever after we have always wanted for Sydney and Adrian, with a cherry on top. We also got to see a LOT of Rose and Dimitri, thank goodness, (some secrets were revealed about Dimitri's past as well that made me a very happy reader--no matter how far fetched they might have felt). Just an FYI Mama Ivashkov might have stolen the show a couple of times (I think I came to love her in this book) with her awesome lines and understanding demeanor.

Relax fans, Sydney and Adrian will be back, I also expect we will get more appearances by Rose and Dimitri--they really can't stay away for long. They will all probably only serve as background to the new characters, but at least we will get to see how they turn out and how their lives evolve. I can't wait for the future book in the VA world, because it is going to rock their world (and ours).

Top Ten Tuesdays: Books I Want to Reread

TTT is a weekly feature held by the Broke and the Bookish . This week's topic are books that we would love to reread. Here's my list: 1. The Book Thief by Mark Zusak Beautifully written and a different take and perspective on a huge event in our history. This was a school read, but everyone in my class was captivated by it. 2. Got Fangs? by Katie Maxwell It was absolutely hilarious and some of the best kissing scenes I've ever read. I kept up with this series and would love to reread how it all began between Fran and Ben. 3. Beastly by Alex Flinn This is one of the best YA book I've read so far. It's so simple with being based in Brooklyn, but I love the development of the characters and budding romance. 4. The Replacement  by Brenna Yovanoff I tried to read this at first and could not get through it. I wan to read it in the future since I know how well-written it is and what the heck Mackie is. 5. Sisters Red by Jackson Pearce I absolutely love adaptions and th...

Review: Night School (Blood Coven #5) by Mari Mancusi

Synopsis: Vampires, Slayers and…FAIRIES? Sunny and Rayne McDonald are about to get SCHOOLED. After their parents’ shocking revelation about their fae heritage and an attack on their lives, the McDonald twins find themselves on the run—forced to hide out at Riverdale Academy , a boarding school for vampire slayers, deep in the Swiss Alps. With no cells, no internet, and no way to contact their vampire boyfriends—the twins are on their own. Being a vampire stuck in a school full of slayers isn’t easy. Especially with no blood substitute stocked on campus. Soon Rayne finds herself succumbing to her bloodlust and losing control—especially around the arrogant, but devastatingly handsome Corbin Billingsworth the Third—who isn’t sure whether he wants to kiss her…or kill her. But when Sunny starts acting strange, Rayne realizes Riverdale Academy may be hiding some deadly secrets of its own—leading to a showdown in Fairyland that may cost the twins their lives.
