Julie’s Review: I skipped reviewing the 5th book in the Bloodlines series (Silver Shadows) due to the general depressing nature of Sydney’s incarceration with the Alchemists. Let’s just say the Alchemists are quite brutal and do awful things for their beliefs. The ending leading into the final book was awesome though. Because Adrian and Sydney […]
