Review: 12th Grade Kills

Dec •  2 •  2010

Title: 12th Grade Kills
Series: The Chronicles of Vladimir Tod # 5
Genre: Young Adult-Paranormal/Fantasy
Author: Heather Brewer
Publisher: Dutton
Release Date: September 21, 2010
Book: Bought

“It all comes down to this.

Vlad’s running out of time. The Elysian Council has given him weeks to live, and that’s if the Slayer Society doesn’t kill him – along with all the citizens of Bathory – first. Then there’s the issue of Vlad’s father, who may or may not still be alive after all these years, and oh yeah, that tiny little detail in the Pravus prophecy about Vlad enslaving Vampirekind and the human race. So much for college applications.

In this epic finale to Heather Brewer’s heart-stopping Chronicles of Vladimir Tod, dark secrets will be revealed, old friends will become enemies, and warm blood will run cold. Just be careful it isn’t yours.?”
If one things Ms. Brewer does, she amazes me. This book was just WOW! It had everything a novel should have in it. Shock, betrayal, love, etc. Just plain good.
Your senior is supposed to be the time of your life, college applications, cap and gown, seniors trips and pics. But not for Vlad. If anything, his senior year is what he least expected it to be. Full of unexpected surprises.
This book just blew me away. I have been following this series since the very first one  and the finale did not disappoint. If anything, Ms. Brewer made me gasp and gasp again. So many secrets and twist! I just could not get enough.
Now, I don’ t want to spoil it all, but this book was a good read. It was filled with a great plot and lots of detail. The fighting was awesome as well as the betrayals. Some I didn’t even seen coming. My hearts breaks for those. I really expected more out of these people. There is even some few deaths. Deaths of people I  truly came to like.
This book was a great end. The ending was perfect and the way it should be. Vladimir, you will be missed. I am sad to see this series go. But I am glad that Vlad got peace in the end.
I give it 5 BITES!
Happy Reading!

    I haven’t read any reviews for these, but I’ve seen the covers around. I always wondered. Your review sounds like your formed a real attachment to these characters, and that sounds good to me. On the TBR!
