It’s the invasion of the vampires!
Recently, the world of the undead has been sweeping its way into young adult novels, making sure that the vampires are
prominently featured. Melissa de la Cruz, author of the popular series THE AU PAIRS, makes sure that she adds her
own twist on vampires in her new series, BLUE BLOODS.
Schuyler Van Alen believed that she was just a normal teenager, living a normal life, and just didn’t seem to fit in.
Attending a private school isn’t the world that Schuyler wanted to enter, what with all of the high fashion when she would
rather wear her “unfashionable” clothes. But she never thought she would enter the world of the vampires, either.
When she turns 15, Schuyler discovers some major changes in herself, like the veins in her arms that are distinctly blue.
And the blue veins can only mean that she is part of the Blue Bloods, a group of vampires whose ancestors go as far
back as the Mayflower. Being a Blue Blood isn’t so bad, right?
Well, when a murder takes place and a popular guy starts to notice you, Schuyler knows that there is something strange
going on, and it’s up to her to crack all of the society’s secrets and to keep herself out of danger while doing it.
Melissa de la Cruz does not disappoint with BLUE BLOODS. The world that Ms. de la Cruz has created is not only
unique but also very intriguing. Fans of the vampire world will definitely want to add this to their collection, and will be
looking forward to MASQUERADE, the next novel in the series.
