Am găsit pedofilu'

Bine bos

Coaie eram curioasa sa vad ce se întâmplă cu Adrian și făcui niste research și aparent mai sunt inca 6 cărți deci on my way to spend my entire winter break reading about crazy vampires and their policies.

J’ai lu le dernier tome de la saga Vampire Academy et je suis mitigée. J’ai trouvé la lecture de ce dernier tome très longue, j’étais fatiguée et je l’ai lu sur deux semaines avec mes partiels donc ça a dû jouer. J’étais moins dedans, même par rapport à des scènes émouvantes, parce qu’elles étaient précédées de trop de répétitions, de longueurs donc je me suis lassée. Je me doutais de la fin, forcément peu de surprise peut importe ce qu’il se passait. J’en attendais plus, parce que Richelle Meads nous a déjà proposée mieux. Le rythme n'était pas très bien gérer, notamment le creux du milieu où on se disperse beaucoup, normal d’un côté parce que c’est nécéssaire, c’est cool mais ça tourne en rond (surtout dans la tête de Rose), mais certaines choses étaient trop faciles, pas assez abouties. On suit un groupe, qui se forme durant ce tome et à la fin et bien... ils disparaissent tout simplement, pas de nouvelles, pas de fin pour eux et on est centré sur la romance de Rose. Je supportais de moins en moins le love interest, pas le couple mais les pensées de Rose, il y avait parfois écrit deux fois sensiblement la même chose sur une même page quand ça concerne ses sentiments ou ce qui se passe entre les deux, c’était trop descriptif et redondant.

On aurait pu aller plus loin avec un épilogue et donner au lecteur ce sentiment de fin, d’un univers entier qui se referme. Alors que là, on a la conclusion que sur le couple, j’avais l’impression de quitter brutalement les personnages, sans savoir ce qui allait vraiment se passer après. 6 tomes, 1 an et au revoir tout le monde. Je trouve que ce tome là est le moins travaillé de tous, peut-être que je ne suis plus le public, que j’ai mis trop le temps à le lire. Trop de questions sans réponses, même si on a une jolie fin.

**Attention** : tout est compréhensible, c’est un dernier tome, je comprend que l’autrice souhaite faire durer, les actions sont bien, les personnages sont très cool, mais pas les répétitions. Je suis cette saga depuis que j’ai 15/16 ans, j’en ai 20 aujourd’hui et je suis un peu triste de ne pas vraiment savoir ce qui se passe ou passera pour eux.

Last Sacrifice was simply AMAZING. I apologize ahead of time if it seems like I’m rambling but I’m having trouble putting my thoughts into words about this book. I’m always torn between wanting to keep reading and making it last as long as possible when it comes to the last installment of a series. I was happy to be reunited with Rose an her friends once again their adventures never ceased to amuse me.

Not a stranger to trouble, Rose Hathaway now finds herself in more trouble than she has ever been. She is being accused of having murdered Queen Tatiana, a murder she has not committed. Being who she is and having the friends she does, Rose gets the help she needs in order to clear her name. In order to clear her name, Rose and her friends take on most of the Moroi Court and travel across the country to find all the necessary evidence. Ready to do whatever it takes Rose and her friends only have so much time to do what they hope. To get more time what better way than to have Lissa run for Queen of the Moroi?

By this point in the series, I honestly feel like the characters in the books are real people that I could randomly meet in the street. Rose is one of my favorite heroines out there and should she actually exist, I’m sure we would be best friends. In this book, I love her more than ever. Her butt-kicking, sarcasm, and moral code just make me love her that much more. And her friendship with Lissa just seals the deal for me. She would do anything for Lissa and just about anyone else she loves. My only problem with Rose in this book is that she is with Adrian but that can easily be overlooked in the long run. In this book I was really liking the bond between her and Lissa this time around. The two spent a lot of time apart so it gave good insight into what Lissa was thinking and feeling as well as what was going on with everyone that was left behind at Court.

You’ve heard me say this before, Dimitri pretty much draws me crazy. In the other books I didn’t always understand his actions and most of the time those actions confused me and made me angry. But now I love Dimitri more than ever. There is a clear change happening in him throughout the book. And without giving anything away I was way more than happy with the end result. Now if only Dimitri actually existed I would be extremely happy. I am Team Dimitri all the way, but I still love Adrian. The guy sure has a lot of flaws but deep down he has a lot of potential to be a really great guy. I feel like I never really talk about Christian even though I absolutely love him. Most of the time he just makes me crack up with his cynical comments and just his general attitude. He and Lissa really work well together and I’m happy they were able to work everything out.

I often find myself be let down by the last book in a series but this one really didn’t disappoint. The story took me to places I never expected to go. Every time I turned a page I had absolutely no idea what to expect. Each chapter finished on a cliffhanger only making me want to read further, resulting in me reading the whole book in one day and that doesn’t happen to me often. More than anything else, I loved the ending. Everything came to a complete circle, there were no loose ends left to tie up. And the way that was all done made me really happy and had me giggling while getting teary eyed when I read the very last page, read the book and you’ll understand.

Last Sacrifice was an amazing finale to an extraordinary series. Except now that it’s over, it feels like there’s something missing. I can’t wait for Bloodlines, the spin-off series based on some of the minor characters. Hopefully there will be some appearances from my favorite Vampire Academy peeps.
