I really only read the Introduction (66 of the 458 pages), though I also glanced through the city/place information of Sweden, and the maps of Norway and Denmark. I found an interesting look into Scandinavian history and culture, as well as several useful travel tips. However, the book's emphasis on hiking, biking, skiing, fishing, etc. is nearly opposite of my interests. (Makes sense in retrospect, since it is an "adventure guide", after all.) It would probably have been of better use were I twenty years younger.

After reading The Alchemist so many years ago, I became so hooked by this author. His works always had a clear and sure point, whether how to dream and never afraid to reaching your dreams, or how to be honest to yourself, accepting who you are for what you are. This book still had that. Meet Athena, she was a restless young woman with impulsive behavior who then accept enlightenment through dancing and calligraphy. In the next chapter of her life, she thus influencing everyone lives she touch, by making themselves dare to accept their own selves, and by doing so, making them closer to Mother, Gaia, or the feminine side of God. This book was written in multiple point of view, i.e Athena's mother, Edda the protector, Andrea the actress and Heron Ryan, a man who fall in love with her. All were interviewed and the transcripts was wrapped by Athena boyfriend, a Scotland Yard officer who never shown in the story (which is odd, because from so many people who knew her, only Heron the journalist who mention him in his statements **I don't even sure if he's real or not**). There are lots of material here about new ageism that quite fascinating. The conversations were smart, logical and honest. And even tough the theme about feminine God has been the subject of his previous works, this book broaden the perspective. All and all, I like this book, but I love Alchemist and Miss Prym 10 times more.

Read the autobiography of the man depicted in the film Hotel Rwanda. A beautiful, powerful memoir.
Very very dense. You need a whole day to read one paragraph....but that's what's so great about it!

I liked it-- but listened to the audio and it was loooong for a J book. Interesting characters and a somewhat "epic" kind of plot, culminating with a fairly intense battle scene. It definitely kept my attention.

This was an ok read, similar but not quite as good as the Trillium series. A map that could easily translate into many other books.

Book was intriging. Tells the story of Cleopatra, her successful and popular reign as queen of Egypt, her gripping love stories as well as her failures and eventual fall from glory and the throne caused by her undue loyalty to her husband, Roman Marc Anthony, who due to his blind convictions of needing to to get revenge coupled with a lack of cleverness, lost everything for Cleopatra in war. The Book offers insight on the beauty of the region and how the ancient civilization was actually advanced and thrived overcoming droughts, flood, famine and predatory enemies including the romans. The only downside is tha the book is lengthy and gets long during some parts.

I finished it finally! Ok, I was not expecting to like this book, especially after I got to the middle but it turned out to be pretty good. I only gave it 4 stars because the middle dragged a bit but I understand that Richelle Mead had to build up the series just like she did for Vampire Academy. (I love the 1st one but it seriously moved slow at a lot of points.) ***SPOILERS*** Okie doke, SO Sydney is completely different from Rose which made it really hard on me to want to continue reading. I love Rose-she is by far the best heroine that I have ever read and will probably never like a character as much as her. Sydney is not like Rose. Not even in the slightest. Sydney is an Alchemist, as you find out from the former books, but in this series you do find out more about what she does. I was always curious to know more about her but after I read it, I kind of didn't care...at first. She is interesting because she uses her smarts instead of physical violence however she is clueless to a lot of things around her-social interaction, the bad guy in her group, boys..etc. I hate bring up this damn book but if you got annoyed with Bella from Twilight then you probably will be slightly annoyed with Sydney. Moving on to Jill. Oh Jill...I was NOT a fan of hers when she was introduced in VA and was pretty ticked off to find out that she was the other Dragomir. (Seriously almost stopped reading the book) so needless to say that I was not excited to have Jill be the main damsel in distress. I thought she would be more like Lissa, who did nothing but whine in my opinion, but Jill surprised me...A LOT! She stood up for herself quite often and is more easy going and interesting than Lissa. And let me tell you-this chick is a fighter. She does something that made me literally say "Whoa!" out loud. That chick has balls. *fist bumps Jill* Eddie is kind of cool to have around in this series. I never really gave him much thought after(during) VA but it is interesting to have him around for this one. I actually really like the set up of him and Jill potentially having a romance. It has promise of a captivating one like Rose and Dimitri had but I think it will be more interesting to see this play out since we really are just outsiders to this and not have a first hand knowledge since we read VA through Rose's mind and eyes. I have high hopes for these two. I don't know how I feel about Sydney and Adrian maybe having a relationship. If they do then based off of knowing Sydney a little more, I don't think this one will have a happy ending like Eddie and Jill's will. I guess I will have to see since Richelle Mead has surprised me a couple of times. I don't really like the fact that Jill and Adrian are spirit bound now. It almost doesn't make sense but yet does? It is not the same as Lissa and Rose's bond. I can't really explain it but there are differences and I think that Richelle Mead maybe messed up somewhere. I hate it when authors change major things, such as this, but don't explain it to the reader. I am sooo excited that Richelle Mead brought Angeline from Last Sacrifice!! I loved this chick when I read her in the last book and could not stop saying "Yes!" when we got her back. While she does not have a big part in Bloodlines, she will most likely be one of the main characters in The Golden Lily(May 2012). I think this chick is awesome! If you read the last book then you know that she actually fought Rose AND LIVED. Hands down, I would not mess with her. *fist bumps Angeline* You do find out some secrets in this book like why Sydney is tied to Abe and what has been going on since Last Sacrifice ended. Like I said, I am not a huge Sydney lover but she really started to grow on me towards the end. I hated the fact that I figured out who the bad guys were in this story almost immediately but I liked that I was still surprised by what happens...especially at the end. You do get a Rose and Dimitri cameo which is awesome! *fist bumps Richelle Mead* I think overall that if you are truly a fan of Vampire Academy, then you will most likely like this series but as I am warning, it if different than the former. Hope I helped some folks out! : )

The structure of this book is more balanced than the first, which you might like or not, and it gives you more of a example of Felix when he's well, which again, you might like or not. I did enjoy this book and I enjoyed both narrators, even when I wanted to smack them.
