Writing this review is relatively harder for me because of two main reasons,

i) I've seen the TV series Game Of Thrones Season 1 and,
ii) I've heard about the book a lot

First thing I've noted was the age of the characters - it would have been more believable if the age of the children in the book was similar to that of the TV series. The most brilliant character creation George R. R. Martin did was that of the imp, Tyrion Lannister. The plot is big, to be precise really big - it took 18.9 hours for me to read the whole Divergent Trilogy and 20 hours for this book. The book is packed rich with killing, deception, romance, motherly love, love between siblings and with their pets(if you could consider direwolf as a pet!) The way of narration and certain seens were screaming ‘I'm inspired by The Lord Of The Ring Trilogy'. It also portray the medieval time when men ruled land and women, when women were seen as a part of human which helps to reproduce and to quench men's unquenchable lust.
Finally, I would recommend this book to everyone who likes The Lord Of The Rings Trilogy, doesn't matter whether you liked the book or the movie. Considering the violent and intimate seens of the book I give an ‘18+' rating and 7/10 stars. [Note to George R. R. Martin - Waiting 4-6 years for a book is a huge pain in the ass! ;-) ] Peace!

First of all I was not much interested in reading this book, because it's a spin off book and doesn't feature Rose ‘that' much. But later, while I was browsing through wikipedia, one sentence among it caught my attention - I'm not gonna write it here, so don't worry. Even though it spoiled the suspense and thrill in the series, I started the book soon. And guess what? It was totally amazing! I was glued to the book in a tremendous level that, I didn't want to go away from the book even to take a bath!
This book takes vampire fantasy, adventure, romance and friendship to a next level - which I recommend you should experience(By reading). Now that I finished the book, I've got to say - if you ‘like' Vampire Academy series, then you're gonna ‘love' Bloodlines series. So if you haven't started the book, start today itself - because it's worth your time.
I give 8/10 stars for the book. Peace!
