Misguided Angel
by Melissa de la Cruz
Misguided Angel is the 5th book in the Blue Bloods Series, which is a series I once loved. I loved it until the 4th book, however, I entered a dark age where I was in an intense reading slump that lasted for a very long time, and is the reason why I was not able to continue on the series. When I recovered, I decided to read the series again. Unfortunately, I didn’t love it or even like it the way I used to. But still, it was once my favorite book so I gave it another chance. And to my disappointment, our spark was really gone. It was not bad, but I think I was just no longer interested in the series.
I was expecting to fall in love with Jack and Schuyler’s plot again but it was just an okay for me. I admit that I am no longer a fan of their love story. So honestly, I was bored in the chapters where Jack and Schuyler appeared. However, what really kept me going was Oliver and Mimi. I hated Mimi in the past books, so it surprised me that I began liking her here. I saw Mimi as a spoiled rich girl before, but now, I can actually see that she is a girl with a heart who actually cares about the people around her. I belonged to Team Schuyler in the past books, but I switched to Mimi’s now. About Oliver, I love him since the beginning of the series, and I still love him now. I think the things he is doing is not because of his role as a conduit, but because he has a caring personality. There was also a new character, Deming Cheng. I did not hate her, but I didn’t like her as well. Though I must say that her POV is actually interesting.
This book continues to keep its mysterious quality that unfolds through the help of both the past and present events. Also, since the Blue Bloods reincarnate, there are a lot of names, and character histories encountered, which I think contributes to the series’ mysteriousness.
