| ^ Same here. Blood Promise isn't even out yet and it already got a great review. That makes me more excited for the book.
However, this person's review doesn't seem all that professional -- so I doubt she's a real book critic. | |

| I can't read that. lol I plan on being spoiler-free for the next two weeks until I can get my hands on my very own copy of BP. This is going to be the first VA book I didn't already know the ending to before reading. I still can't believe it's only 2 weeks away!! I've been waiting for so long it and it hasn't really hit me yet. I'm sure I'll be squeeing in the bookstore as I'm checking out. That is... if they have it. Although... it is really tempting to read that person's review. It's possible that they could have read it if they got an advance reader copy. I think someone won an ARC from Penguin Australia, even before the chapter excerpt came out last month. | |

| ↑ ↑ ↑ Wow. Really? Wish that were me. You should read the spoiler. It doesn't say much but it does say a little more details but still you should read it. | |

| Please don't tempt me!! GAh.. I have enough trouble keeping away from the link already. I don't need to know how awesome the spoiler is. It'll just make me more impatient if I read it. lol And I really want to be surprised. Every single book so far has been spoiled cuz of teh internets and I don't want BP to be spoiled!! | |

yeah, they did. I entered the competition but obviously didn't win. She gave us all a review (I don't know if it was posted online or not) but it didn't contain any spoilers. She just told everyone that it was a fantastic book and that it wasn't a good idea to start reading late at night because it's difficult to put the book down and you'll end up reading it all night, which isn't good for an early morning start. | |

Oh. Sorry. I guess it is more interesting if you don't know any details and spoilers. At the end, you'll be more surprised than me. Hehe. | |

| I'm with dimkaluv. I won't read the review because I don't want spoilers either. And when I think it was Chris, but I'm not sure, said the review was not professional sounding, it makes me not want to read the review even more. I'd rather form my own opinions when the book comes out. | |

| ^ It was me that said the review didn't sound professional. And just to let you guys know, it doesn't contain major spoilers, only really minor spoilers -- and its a really short review. Just making sure you guys know that. But its good that you guys didn't read it I guess...then you'll be completely surprised when the book comes out. | |

| Ehh... I gave in and read it. I know. *is easily swayed by the evil that is temptation* lol But yeah, I pretty much knew that all of what I read would happen. It's just logical. lol That Adrian would dreamwalk and that Rose would check on Lissa through the bond. And that Rose would try to find Dimitri's family. It doesn't explicitly say any spoilers, except for what we already knew since reading SK. Blood Promise spoiler - Spoiler:
Also, Rose has developed a new shadow kissed ability, but I figured that would happen anyway. I've been saying for months now that Rose probably has abilities she doesn't even know about yet. I guess I was right. lol
The first chapter also really kind of summarizes what's going on in this book too. I want to know more about the alchemists!! Geh. So much for that. I wonder if they'll have it at Walmart at midnight? I guess it couldn't hurt to look... | |

| ^ I know, thats why I said the review really contains only minor spoilers...nothing really major or exciting. Sorry if you were a little disappointed. lol.
And yeah, I figured all that would happen too. But still, it's nice to see that someone confirmed my theories were right. | |

| The review wasn't 100% accurate. I won't say what is and isn't accurate because I don't want to risk spoiling. | |

| SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER! Do NOT click this box if you don't want to be spoiled! - Spoiler:
Yeah, her new Shadow Kissed ability is to control/summon the ghosts. At least that's what I think it is.

| Yah, I guess. - Spoiler:
I mean, I guess she couldn't control them before. Maybe its to hook up with another spirit user to help Lissa compel others through the bond/ talk with her through the bond.

| So you live in Canada then, like me and ballroomdancer13? Us lucky Canadians. I've read it already as well, and I must agree, a little disappointing. It was good though. Kept me occupied for about 24 hours. | |

| Just a question for everyone who's read the book: Is there a huge cliffhanger at the end? D: And what makes the book so disappointing? | |
