{Review} Bloodrose by Andrea Cremer


Bloodrose (Nightshade #3)
Author: Andrea Cremer
Published: January 3, 2012
Publisher: Philomel

Pages: 406
Calla has always welcomed war.
But now that the final battle is upon her, there's more at stake than fighting. There's saving Ren, even if it incurs Shay's wrath. There's keeping Ansel safe, even if he's been branded a traitor. There's proving herself as the pack's alpha, facing unnamable horrors, and ridding the world of the Keepers' magic once and for all. And then there's deciding what to do when the war ends. If Calla makes it out alive, that is. {Goodreads}
Nightshade has been great series so far! It was the series which opened my Lil reading eyes to the realm of wolf books and I'm definitely glad it was my first! 

Ms Cremer is an amazing and talented writer! I love the creativity and detailing she made to these books. Everything about these books was enthralling and that's why I have finished it! 

My o my!!! Yes she did it! Ms Cremer went out with a bang!! I wasnt too sure what was gonna happen and was worried on how 
she was gonna pull it off especially on how the book was mainly about finding the swords in the beginning. I kept asking...when and how's is the revolt gonna pick up! I am sooo terribly sorry for even have any trace of doubt! Why? Because she did it and she did it perfectly!

The beginning was perfect. The tension between Shay and Ren was perfect. Calla's narrative character was perfect. The building bond between the Searchers and the Guardians was perfect! The thrill and suspense was perfect!! The ending!!! Well...was....perfect!!! 

I admit..I cried! It was a terrible ending!! I mean why!! I was hoping....somehow..you know! I mean it can't be true!! All who have read this amazing end to this trilogy know what I'm talking about! But in the end....it was beautiful! I couldn't help but enjoy it it really was perfection!! And the narrative ....gosh just EVERYTHING! Please don't even take me lightly when I say the ending....the BOOK!!! Was. Perfect!!! I'm not even exaggerating! I couldn't have asked Ms Cremer herself to do it any better! 

I am in love and will forever be! I am soo glad I read this!! If you haven't picked up this series yet....you need to like right now! I'm serious! You won't be disappointed!! And all of you who have out off reading the final book like I did....stop it right now! Get off your lazy toosh and read it!!! Haha was this review girl fan enough?? 



Oh and incase you were wondering.....#TEAMSHAY!!!!! Till the end!!! Love ya like crazy hun!!! ;) 



Thanks for reading! :)

Publisher: Penguin Young Readers Group
Pages: 390
When Calla Tor wakes up in the lair of the Searchers, her sworn enemies, she's certain her days are numbered. But then the Searchers make her an offer, one that gives her the chance to destroy her former masters and save the pack and the man she left behind. Is Ren worth the price of her freedom? And will Shay stand by her side no matter what? Now in control of her own destiny, Calla must decide which battles are worth fighting and how many trials true love can endure and still survive. {Goodreads}
 I will start off by saying I LOVED Nightshade! Andrea Cremer did an AMAZING job creating this book! I love the story line, the conflict, and the twists she puts into this book.

Wolfsbane takes place right after the ending of the first book****Spoilers:
Calla is captured and taken to the Searchers base after fleeing her ceremony to save Shay~~~I love him! haha sorry just thought I'd mention that! :)
****End of Spoilers

Wow this book was filled with loss and surprises! The beginning, honestly, started very slow and it took me a little while to really get into it but as soon as the Searchers were pickin up speed in their progress...the book sped up too and I was divin in head first! Ugh this review is going to be short because it's hard to say everythin without givin it all away but I knew I had to review this one too.

Shay yupp I am still #TeamShay! He is soo freakin cute! He is protective, loyal, honest, and genuine! He loves Calla without a doubt! And that makes me love him without a doubt. Sorry Ren you have enough people on your side as it is! :b Man and the ending with him: WOW!!! :O

~~~~~~~My Rate~~~~~~~

Nightshade by Andrea Cremer

Nightshade ( Nitshade Trilogy #1)
Author: Andrea Cremer
Date Published: October 19, 2010
Source: Bought
Page Numbers: 452
Publisher: Philomel Publishing (Penguin Young Readers)
Calla Tor has always known her destiny: After graduating from the Mountain School, she'll be the mate of sexy alpha wolf Ren Laroche and fight with him, side by side, ruling their pack and guarding sacred sites for the Keepers. But when she violates her masters' laws by saving a beautiful human boy out for a hike, Calla begins to question her fate, her existence, and the very essence of the world she has known. By following her heart, she might lose everything- including her own life. Is forbidden love worth the ultimate sacrifice? {Goodreads}
Werewolves??? HOTT! haha I honestly had never read a werewolf book and this was the perfect book to get started on. Andrea Cremer's writing was a little bit off at sometimes: jumping from one event to the other, not fully explaining something, and it could being really confusing but it the end she always pulled througgh. Everything was eventually explained. I loved the world she created and the background she based it off of. Oh and the cover!!! *sings in a high (on pitch) not&* BEEE(a)-UUUTIFUL!!!

Calla had been lied to her whole life. They were taught that the Searchers were the enemies, love was decided for them, that they (the Keepers) only wanted what was best for them. But no, all they wanted was power, the Guardians ( werewolves) were only their body guards. This was only found out after Shay, the boy she saved from a vicious bear attack (never thinking she would every sea him again), swoops into her life. And it seems he plays a bigger part in her life than she would have liked.

She can't help but fall for Shay (which I couldn't either). But why? He was only a human....or maybe not.....
I truly did love this book. Romance, action, frustration, and complications. The lies of the world keep you turning each page. You find yourself wondering if your assumptions were right, and also hoping you weren't right. The Keepers are so cruel you really end up hating them. I love both Ren's (the guy Calla is supposed to marry to create a new pack, who she also has an attraction to and is really cocky, cocky but cute! lol ) and Call's pack...well  most of them.
 
Calla is such a boss. She kicks butt like no other and (honestly) can be quite aggravating but that is what caused me to like her I think. She was so head strong and make women proud as she stands as the alpha female! :D I loved her brother Ansel too.

Shay is just a human...kind of...sorry you have to read to really find out if I'm bluffing or not hehe ;) He is cute, funny, and a pain in the butt sometimes. I often see..Tam Ren! Team Ren! but honestly I really liked Shay alot more. He is so much more easy going and nice. He truly cares for Calla and never has you doubting his love unlike Ren.

If you are looking for a kick-butt, love triangle, mysterious read with the whole werewolf thing going on then this is definitely your read right here. I recommend this book to you all. Which by the way is only the first in a trilogy!! Wolfsbane is already out but Bloodrose doesn't come out till January..poopy right!??? :/

Oh!! and this isn't your ordinary werewolf book. You'd be surprised how many twists and turns and....lies.....you have been told!! ;) I love all of what Miss Cremer gave us!! Hope you enjoy it as much as I did!! :D

Bloodrose (Nightshade trilogy #3) by Andrea Cremer

The Ultimate Sacrifice.

Calla has always welcomed war. But now that the final battle is upon her, there’s more at stake than fighting. There’s saving Ren, even if it incurs Shay’s wrath. There’s keeping Ansel safe, even if he’s been branded a traitor. There’s proving herself as the pack’s alpha, facing unnamable horrors, and ridding the world of the Keepers’ magic once and for all. And then there’s deciding what to do when the war ends. If Calla makes it out alive, that is.

In the final installment of the Nightshade trilogy, New York Times bestselling author Andrea Cremer creates a novel with twists and turns that will keep you on the edge of your seat until its final pages. A dynamic end to this breathtaking trilogy {Goodreads}
I just finished Wolfsbane (#2) last week and loved it! I love this series and hated Wolfsbane's ending!! It was a cliff hanger! I can't wait to see what happens in the final book! Calla, please pick Shay!!!! #TeamShay
