Review: Last Sacrifice

Last Sacrifice by Richelle Mead
Published by Razorbill
Genre: YA

594 pages

What it's about:
Rose Hathaway has always played by her own rules. She broke the law when she ran away from St. Vladimir's Academy with her best friend and last surviving Dragomir princess, Lissa. She broke the law when she fell in love with her gorgeous, off-limits instructor, Dimitri. And she dared to defy Queen Tatiana, leader of the Moroi world, risking her life and reputation to protect generations of dhampir guardians to come.
Now the law has finally caught up with Rose--for a crime she didn't even commit. She's in prison for the highest offense imaginable: the assassination of a monarch. She'll need help from both Dimitri and Adrian to find the one living person who can stall her execution and force the Moroi Elite to acknowledge a shocking new candidate for the royal throne: Vasilisa Dragomir. But the clock on Rose's life is running out. Rose knows in her heart the world of the dead wants her back...and this time she is truly out of second chances. The big question is, when your whole life is about saving others, who will save you?

My thoughts:
I'm not going to say alot about this book. I would have been beyond pissed if someone gave away any spoilers at all for me. I won't be posting any quotes (even though there are some amazing ones) because even that is too big of a spoiler for this book.

All I'm going to say is that I still love all the characters. All of them do things that I think are incredible. The faith and love they all have for each other is amazing, and at the same time a little creepy. Richelle Mead does a great job keeping the reader on their toes and dying to know what happens next. She's great at keeping just enough information away from the reader so they get those beyond shocking moments.

The ending left me going "awww" until it sunk in that this is the last book, then I was a little pissed. There were lots and lots of unanswered questions that should have been answered because they were hinted at and asked through out the whole book.

My rating: 10/10, duh.

I love getting comments! I'm always checking to see if I have any new comments. It's actually pretty sad how often I check for them really. So if there is anything you want to say about a post of mine, please say it! I want feedback :)

As of lately, I'm making the blog a no-award blog. I love getting them and I'm always honored, but I don't have the time to do all the things that are required of them. Sorry :(
Also, my "reply" button does not seem to be working in my comments on my computer. I have to use a different computer to reply back so if I don't reply, it's not because I'm rude, it's just that I can't.
