Spirit Bound by Richelle Mead: Book Review!



Hello, everyone! I'm back with another fun book review! We're getting close to the end of the Vampire Academy Series. This review is of the fifth installment of the series by Richelle Mead. So, let's talk about Spirit Bound, and let's get on with the review!

In Spirit Bound, Rose has made it back to St. Vladimir's Academy after failing in trying to kill Dimitri. She tries to move on with her life, including graduating, starting a relationship with Adrian, and trying to rebuild her image after going rouge. Dimitri is making it difficult with his threatening love letters, and things only get worse when Rose believes she has found a way to bring Dimitri back from being a Strigoi. The only thing is that it requires help from the one and only Victor Dashkov.

There is a lot going on with this novel. Rose is trying to hold onto some kind of hope that Dimitri can come back to her. They decide to break Victor out of prison. Dimitri is constantly trying to kill Rose. Lissa and Chrisitan get kidnapped. Rose tries to get over Dimitri with Adrian. Then at the very end, there is a cliff hanger that leads to the next book. While there's a lot of stuff going on in the novel, it didn't ever feel that way. Everything flowed from one moment to the next.

I haven't talked about a ton about this relationship, but it needs to be said that Christian and Lissa's relationship gets really interesting in this novel. They are still separated from the big fight that happened in the other novel, but they are forced to work together in order to save their friend. It's also nice to see some conflict come in a form other than Dimitri and Rose.

When I think about this novel, there isn't anything that I really dislike about it. It was as enjoyable to read as it was heartbreaking. This is definitely worth the read, and I think I'll give this book five out of five spirit-infused stakes.

Stories I Ate This Month: May and June 2018

Hello, my lovelies! As you've probably noticed, today's post is going to consist of the stories that I have consumed in the last two months as opposed to just last month. This is mostly because May was a world-wind for me, and I didn't really consume a lot of content. I was mostly running around, trying to get my life in order (not that it's in a particular order at the moment), and other miscellaneous duties that took up most of my time. So today, I'm going to play catch-up and tell you my thoughts on the stories that I've consumed in May and June. Let's get to the reviews! I've read two books in the past couple of months, Death on the Nile  and The A.B.C. Murders . Both are by Agatha Christie and feature Detective Hercule Poirot. Agatha Christie has a way of making a puzzling novel that keeps your attention without making things overly graphic or by adding unnecessary action scenes for the sake of drama. She's one of my favorite mystery auth

Stories I Ate This Month: February 2018

Hello, everyone! I'm back and I'm here to review all of the stories that I consumed this month. Yes, this post is over a month late, but I have plenty of excuses. One: I am exhausted. Two: being an intern is tough. Three: trying to live a normal life is much more difficult than I imagined. So, here I am. I'm late to the game. But I'm very excited to show you what I've read for the month. I hope you enjoy this post! The first two books that I finished this month are The Madness Underneath and The Shadow Cabinet by Maureen Johnson. These two books are the "final" books in the Shades of London series. I say "final" but there has been some speculation that the series has not yet been completed, which I tend to agree with. There are a lot of plot lines that haven't been concluded, and there's a new antagonist introduced in The Shadow Cabinet , and the book basically leaves off with a cliffhanger. With the recent publication of Truly Devious

Stories I Ate This Month: March 2018

So this month has been a bit of a bust. I haven’t read many book or watched that many movies, but the show must go on. Also, as a side note, I haven’t finished any season of any particular television shows this month, but I’ve started a few promising ones that will hopefully be completed in April. But anyway, here’s all the books and movies I’ve conquered this month. The first two books I read this month are The Hanging Tree and Foxglove Summer by Ben Aaronovitch. These books are the 5 th and 6 th book in his Peter Grant series which feature Detective, you guessed it, Peter Grant as he investigates criminal matters in London with a tendency for the supernatural. If you haven’t read my review about the other books of this series, I’ll reiterate. Ben Aaronovitch combines everything that I love within his novels, and does it in such a fashion that you can feel the commitment to his craft with every paragraph. His expertise with the London area and the unordinary is clearly visible
