Blue Bloods 3-Book Boxed Set by Melissa de la Cruz

medium-paced

3.5

06/21/2020 – blue bloods was my ya of choice in the era where twilight and the mortal instruments reigned, which definitely does not mean i liked it more than the darkest powers (because i most certainly liked it less). heck, i liked it even less than hunger games, but this was simply more enjoyable in that it was clearly way more self-indulgent and didn't involve as many teenaged revolutionaries. in short, No Thinking Needed. moreover, the setup and premise seemed to me miles more interesting than the worldbuilding twilight or tmi could offer, even though i can't say i was particularly connected to even a single one of the characters. i remember this series much more fondly than i do the other series of the era, though that probably doesn't say much, since i don't consider my taste in ya to have peaked until i was no longer a young adult. 3.5 stars pertains to how much entertainment it gave me when i was younger, given how many times i reread the series. probably dozens of times pre-2010.
