Now, all of a sudden, Jack Force, the most popular guy in school, is showing an interest in her. And when one of the popular girls is found dead, Schuyler and Jack are determined to get to the bottom of it.

writes,

This book was wonderful. There were plenty of twists and turns. The characters had depth which is something missing in some books today. It was fast paced, I finished it quickly. I'm eagerly awaiting the sequel, so don't keep us waiting.

The first book in a series is always the one to suck you in, or not. This book did an amazing job at keeping you sucked in, turning the pages despite the hour of night to find out what would happen next. The characters were well developed and extremely easy to love or hate. It is riviting. Make sure you order Masquerade as well, you'll want to start the second book immediately after finishing the first.

I'm in my 20's and ever since reading the Twilight series, I have become obsessed with trying to find something else just as good. (Very Hard)
'Blue Blood' took a longggg time to get good. Not until you are about half-way through the book, does it start to get interesting. The diary entries were a little confusing for me. There's alot of "name-throwing" (prada, paige, versace, etc.) Lots of just non-stop talking about popular/good-looking people and how they dress, where they party, etc. So at first I was really regretting buying the book.
But when I had about 100 pages left, it started getting pretty good; where now, I need to buy 'Masquerade'.

Not too bad just takes time to get good.
