A few years ago, I didn't think I'd ever read this book. Back then, I couldn't read further than the first few pages. But now, I've read it. And loved it, I absolutely don't know why I hated it so much, when I love it now!!
So I am loving this series but totally dissapointed at the ending. I am really rooting for Adrian but bringing D back, Ugh! I'm ready for the story to develop past D. Hope the series doesn't end with bringing him back to human life.

Ce fut une légère déception. J’en attendais beaucoup mais finalement la première moitié est assez lente, on régresse dans le rythme et on s’attarde beaucoup sur l’intériorité de Rose. La deuxième partie offre plus d’action et de révélations. J’ai aimé le fait qu’à un moment le style d’écriture corresponde à l’état mental du personnage en étant très confus, perdu et hésitant. Les révélations m’ont surprises même si je m’y attendais un peu, j’ai très hâte de lire le T5 pour avancer dans cette saga qui est vraiment cool dans sa globalité.
Voi johtua sarjan liiankin tiiviistä maratoonaamisesta, mutta välillä tämä tuntui todella tylsältä. Lopussa oli kuitenkin taas kiva pieni koukku, joten enköhän minä pian sukella seuraavan osan pariin.
I swear, these books just keep on getting better and better. Every time I finish one I think they just can’t get better, then I pick up the next one and have the same reaction all over again. Blood Promise was just as good as all the other books in the Vampire Academy series, if not even better. There is just something about these books that makes me love them so much more every time I finish one.
Now the Dimitri is turned Strigoi, Rose must go and find him so she can kill him and release his soul. They had both agreed that they would rather be dead than Strigoi and Rose wants to honor the promise she made to Dimitri in that car not so long ago. Now in Russia, Rose is not sure where she should go to find the man she loves, much less what she’ll do once she comes face to face with him. In theory, finding Dimitri and killing him should be easy because he is no longer the Dimitri she knew and loved but in reality, will killing the man she loves mean killing herself in the process?
Blood Promise was really different from the other books in the series, but different in a good way. Everything was that much more focused on Rose and with my love for Rose this made me a happy reader. Rose was very different in this book. She still had that reckless, impulsive nature but it wasn’t used to protect others but more to selfishly put herself in the face of unnecessary danger. But it was also nice to see her show her emotions more, especially when she found herself living with Dimitri’s family. Speaking of which, Dimitri’s family was great. It was so nice to see where he got so many of his qualities from and to learn more about his past. I loved how easily they accepted Rose and they could all so easily understand why Dimitri had loved her and how much she loved him. They were all really great women and I hope I see more of them, but I doubt that will happen.
I still can’t help but love Dimitri but this time I might have been more attracted to him because he became more the bad boy type. He wasn’t the same loving, kind but fierce man that Rose fell in love with and that I fell in love with. To be honest, sometimes he annoyed me like no other and was practically yelling at Rose to get a grip even though I knew there was no way she could hear me. At other times, Dimitri pretty much scared me but I still couldn’t help but hope it was all some big practical joke and he would return to being guardian Dimitri. Adrian on the other hand totally grew on me. He wasn’t the obnoxious, arrogant Adrian from the other book and you could tell he genuinely cared about what happened to Rose and what was happening to Lissa. And he totally made me laugh at the end of the book.
Blood Promise was just as good as all the other Vampire Academy books. I know I’m repeating myself, but I am so glad I finally decided to give this series a chance. Had I not, I would have totally missed out on some pretty awesome books. Now I just need to get to the bookstore and get myself a copy of Spirit Bound!
