I remember trying to read the first book when I was a senior in high school and I couldnt get into it. So seeing that there was a Graphic Novel was great because I got to see the main plot of the book. I was really wrong about it. I had the setting was like in the 1600's the whole time. I didn't know that it changes. I am interested to learned Sky and Jack's relationships. As well as Jack's father relationship with Sky's mother. I personally think they were lovers but she left him to be with Sky...
To see full review click here. As you know by now, I'm a huge fan of Melissa de la Cruz's series Blue Bloods. This series had everything for me great characters, New York glamour, paranormal, intricate mysteries, and some pretty good world building. However, as of late I've been getting annoyed with the books. It started with the fifth book. A lot of people thought the series should've ended after the fourth book, but I wasn't so sure. I thought there was still a lot to work with this series. Th...
4.5/5I read the book Blue Bloods last year and I really enjoyed it! I need to read the rest of the books in that series. So when I found out there was a graphic novel of that book I needed to have it and read it!Schuyler Van Alen discovers a secret her family has kept from her. When she turns fifteen some blue veins start appearing in her arms and she starts having memories of the past, a classmate is found dead at a night club and the most popular guy in school is paying attention to Schuyler a...
Another great, graphic novel addition to a prestanding series! One aspect that prevented a 5 star rating from me was the character drawings: none of the characters were depicted as I imagined them in my head (except for maybe Oliver). I imagined Sky with a little more spunk, Jack with nicer hair and more boyish features (not the default "strong, hard jaw" of many heroes), Mimi with more of a classic look, Bliss as more curvaceous, and Dylan as more of a badass than a mainstream "rocker". But I g...
I don't read graphic novels often at all. In fact I can probably count the ones I have read in my lifetime on one hand. But I do enjoy them, especially ones that are based on book series. I thought this one was pretty true to the first book in the Blue Bloods series, the images are very much what I imagined in my head when reading it. I will need to find the other graphic novels now.
I just saw the cover! Itäs so beautiful, definitely worth reading in graphic format! :D
Kind of hard to follow at times
I'd have to say this graphic novel is so good... It made me want to read the actual series.First, i think the plot is so unique from other vampire ya novels that I've read so far.Two, the illustrations... Oh they are just so beautiful!What else? The ending.. It was kind of intriguing and I reall could relate to this Sky girl. I just don't understand why she had to have a really weird name.. Lol.
It's been years since I've touched the Blue Bloods series (I didn't even finish it nor do I plan to) and yet I still hate Schuyler and Jack.
It followed the storyline pretty well and the art was really good. The story translated well to graphic novel form. It was cool to read the novel and the graphic novel back to back.
This reminded me so much of House of Night graphic novel with one major difference - I have no desire to read the actual book/series House of Night but I definitely want to read the book Blue Bloods! And see how far I go on the series. I can see it being a delicious guilty pleasure - or a giant flop if it gets too angsty. Love the idea of Roanoke/Blue Bloods being wiped out by a mythical vampire hunter/warped fallen angel. That's quite a yummy backstory. Excited to read these!!
It's been a while since i read Blue blood but i felt like this graphic novel was pretty true to the book. Of course a lot has been cut but the important parts were there and the art was pretty similar to the way i imagined most of the characters. I hope the rest of the series will be made as well!
Rating: 5I didn't want this story to end because it was so exciting the art was really good. My real concern is that it reminded me of Mortal Instruments. Other than that the story was really engaging and again I can't say it enough, but the art was AMAZING!
While I am a lover of graphic novels and a lover of young adult books, I haven't read any graphic novel versions of ya in the past. I really enjoyed the Blue Bloods series though, which I started earlier this year, and thought this would be really good. For the most part, I really enjoyed this graphic novel. The colors were great, and many of the characters were drawn spot-on. My biggest concern is how Jack Force and Cordelia Van Alen were drawn. Jack is supposed to be super hot and fine. He was...
Very interesting take on what vampires are. I think I have a new book series to start next year now thanks to reading the graphic novel.
I don't remember the first book being quite so interesting, so I'd say this is a win for the graphic novel.It's been years since I read Blue Bloods, and even though it's got a huge following, I never really managed to go back for more. Honestly, I can't remember exactly why, though. I vaguely remember thinking it was a bit too full of unnecessary...something...that made it thick and boring. However, this graphic novel made me think that it might be worth a re-read. Maybe it's only because all th...
A fun little vampire story. Very white and old money (vampire) crowd. There is even a joke about one looking like Kate Moss. Um, har? I don't know, the art is good, the story is okay. Entertainment without any vitamins? I'll probably read the next installment if/when it comes out unless I forget to, which is a distinct possibility.
4 1/2 shes not wrote anymore. She needs to finish her story. It's such a great story.
Sigh 3.5 I got sucked in.....like always. I have never read this book in its original form and now I'm kind of bummed I didn't buy the three that was at the library bookstore yesterday. Maybe on Monday they will still be there.Blue Bloods reminded me of a few YA supernatural books that I've read in the past. A little bit of Fallen by Lauren Kate, a little bit of Mortal Instruments, a little bit of Beautiful Creatures. I'm sure there is more, but those were the ones I could identify right away.Sc...
i really can't wait to see how this turns out. they made a graphic novel for twilight and it was, in my opinion, really well done. the artist would have to be perfect though.the problem with changing mediums (ex. book -> movie/graphic novel) is that everybody has their own idea of how each of the characters should look and how their surroundings should look. only a really great artist who is familiar with the series will bee able to pull it off well.
