The Golden Lily Richelle Mead Books

This is where things get interesting. Verrrry interesting! The ending of The Golden Lily is almost cruel, with Richelle Mead giving us what we want and leaving us with no more pages to read. Rude.

Gone are the days of mopey and sad Adrian. He only has eyes for one rule-following, body conscious, highly-intelligent girl, who kind of hates that she likes him. Like Adrian says later, they only have centuries of prejudice and hate to overcome, right? Small feat. Adrian wheedles his way into the small group of Moroi that Sydney actually likes and trusts.

In The Golden Lily, Sydney enlists Adrian's help to find out who's responsible for giving several students at the high school charmed facial tattoos—ones that bear a striking resemblance to Sydney's own golden lily on her cheek. Could an Alchemist be responsible for this? Would someone be willing to break their own rules and reveal Alchemist secrets?

I love how Sydney is starting to come into her own. The longer Sydney hangs around her fake family of dhampirs and Moroi, the more she begins to question the strict rules and principles she's been taught all her life. Ever so slightly, she starts to step outside of her comfort zone, which includes dating a guy Brayden who could be her brain twin. But he's soooo boring and yes, even her eyes begin to wander to someone else (EEEEEK!!).

When I said things get interesting, of course I mean in the romance department. I won't give anything away but you know how much I love a good forbidden romance, especially one with a little bit of hate and annoyance sprinkled in for good measure.

This book is so much fun! And it bears mentioning AGAIN that the ending is downright amazing/terrible. Richelle Mead is like that sometimes.

Audiobook Comments:
Emily Shaffer narrates yet another Richelle Mead title. Her narration style doesn't really bother me but her delivery can be a bit flat at times. If you're accustomed to a more animated and theatric type of performance, you don't get a ton of that here. But her comedic timing with Adrian is rather enjoyable.

* I borrowed the audiobook from my local library but I own the ebook and physical copies.

The Golden Lily Richelle Mead Books Reviews

The fact that I am writing this review right now is a miracle. Why you ask? Simple, I would rather be reading the next book in the series, The Indigo Spell! However, I have forced myself to review this one before I read the next one or it just won't happen.

We return to Palm Springs and Amberwood in the second installment of Bloodlines. And the more I read in the series, the more I love it. I was so convinced that I would never enjoy Bloodlines like I enjoyed Vampire Academy, but I was so wrong!

Sydney Sage is again the main character and POV we read in TGL. I really love Sydney and enjoy her comments and thoughts. However, to be so clever and smart, she can really be dumb too. She has all the book knowledge in the world but the simplest things can throw her for a loop. I suppose that is why she is so endearing. It is obvious that Sydney is struggling with morals in this book. As an alchemist she is supposed to despise Dhapmirs and Moroi, however, at times she notices they are more ethical and moral than some humans. The dilemma only becomes worse the more time she spends with Eddie, Jill, Dimitri, Sonya, Angeline and Adrian.

Speaking of Adrian, I am so proud of the strides he is making in this series. Despite the fact that he has a history of being rebellious and insensitive, he wants to grow and become a better person. We saw him "attempt" this in VA to try and win Rose, but Rose was always meant to be with Dimitri. This time is different as he has a hard time even explaining it to himself.

The other issues in the book surround Sydney and her issues with magic. If you recall, her teacher is a witch and believes that Sydney could become a powerful one as well, if she would only embrace it. After Sonya and Sydney are attacked the struggle to resist magic and claim it is evil is much more difficult. Events in this book also lead Sydney to think about the ethics of an offshoot of the Alchemists and if they are hiding things from her as well. Clearly, her struggle with right and wrong will continue in book 3.

In conclusion, be prepared for a heck of an ending that we have all been waiting for a long time. It was totally worth the wait! And since the remainder of the series is already released, I don't have to wait any longer to dig into The Indigo Spell!
