To all the fans of Peter: he is a massive arrogant self absorbed jerk, a poncy twat and a bloody pain in the arse!!! His charachter is ridiculously underdeveloped and ghostly, and if in Swear Alice ends up with him by some miracle, I hope this book never comes out!!!
UPDATE
Thank you, the ever loyal members of team Peter&Alice, who had the guts to send hate mail to Amanda Hocking as well as a crapload of messages about how unsatisfied you were with the course My Blood Approves had taken (I mea...more

One of the most important things in any relationship is its foundation. From book 1 of My Blood Approves, Peter tries to protect Alice dangers she lacks the maturity or ability to handle. On the other hand, Jack more or less uses as Alice much like the toys he collects to ease his boredom. Jack and Alice's relationship also stems out of jealousy and fear. Neither of them care about one another in a romantic way until Peter is thrown into the picture, leaving Alice to cry over the fact that she m...more

I had no idea there was gonna be another book to the series :) I'm glad there is. I really want it to be Alice and Peter together! He did have her first then Jack took her. Don't get me wrong, I loved Jack but I loved Peter more. 2 more months left!! <3 <3 Peter&Alice all the way

I thought the books were great. I read them 3 (count it) three times. I wanted Jack to be with Alice at first, but what others are taking into consideration is that Alice has grown up quite a bit. She knows the rules of the game now. She knows now that there is usually one mate for the vampires.She loves Jack because they grew together through their friendship and her youth. However; she was meant for Peter and he was to blind to see it. He had been holding on to his 1st love so long he had forg...more

Just writing this to comment on all the other reviews and discussions on this book. Did anyone else read in her blog post that Amanda has started to hate the series and all the characters she wrote because of the Jack vs. Peter fractions? This is her creation, and as the author she has every right to write it as she feels, and to disregard anyone else's opinion. I cannot believe that people wrote her hate mail over this! They are only characters in a book! They AREN'T REAL PEOPLE. This is exactl...more

Why is it that the first 4 amazing books came out all in 2010, and THIS 5th book is taking so goddamn long!? >:(
I swear this book taking over 2 years to write better be worth it.

I check this book at least like once a week.... I just can't wait!! I'm dieing here, I actually think I might read the series from the start again just cause I miss jack so much!
Oh TEAM JACK all the way! I never understand how people say team peter? Sure he's cool... I guess... but he's broody and bad tempered! How can that compare to sweet, funny, charming Jack? That's right, you with the nose... He can't! He just can't. Na na. Nope!
Anyways, waiting anxiously, Amanda! Not to be rude but... Ge...more

Alright...
first off: READ AMANDA'S BLOG! She wrote a long explanation like forever ago that explained why the book is taking so long to write. So calm the hell down.
Second: READ AMANDA'S BLOG! She also explained in the blog that Alice will in fact stay with Jack; they are meant to be. So... Calm the hell down.
Yup... I'm totes for Jack, by the way. But I feel a little bad for Peter, though-- he thinks he is in love with Alice but (like Amanda said in her blog) his feelings come from the brother-...more

SPOILERS IF YOU HAVEN'T READ THE 4th BOOK!
From Amanda Hocking's Blog
I think I need to clarify the following things. My problems with writing Swear aren't because a lack of ideas, writer's block, or because of my publishers. I know exactly how the book ends. I don't believe in writer's block. And I'm actually in trouble with foreign publishers for not writing it.
I don't know how to explain it to you any better than I already have. I feel completely disconnected from all the characters.

Peter and Alice all the way! I love Jack, but Peter sends chills up my spine and makes me want to steal him away and keep him for myself(: I don't care if his character is lame or if he's an ass sometimes(: he loves Alice more than he does Elise and that's saying a lot considering he was depressed the whole time over Elise's death until he met Alice. I think Jack is an ass for breaking the bond between her and Peter, Peter didn't deserve that after losing Elise. I love Peter to death<3

I know this book may never come to being-- I am lost without the ending to Jack's story-- well, Alice and Jack-- I get it, people love Peter-- but he already has his Elise... anyways-- Amanda is terribly busy with her success... so if it never comes to head-- at least I can rest in the know that Alice chose Jack, it will always be Jack. Think I'm actually going to start reading from the beginning again...

According to Hocking's blog she is having some difficulties writing this last book. I recently found this series and have spent the last week reading it. I am now very disappointed to learn I will have to wait who knows how long to have some closure with Alice and her story.

213 ratings and an average of 4.2 stars for a book that hasn't been released yet?
*blink blink*
Amanda Hocking, you are one impressive lady. And I envy you. A lot.

Sellout!!! Ms Hocking had no problem banging out this series before being signed with a legit publishing company. They clearly weren't interested in picking up this series so there comes the blog in November saying her heart isn't in it to finish book 5 (read: there's no paycheck for this one). She's a big disappointment. This was a good series minus a few misses but now I'll never read another Hocking book. Quite frankly I found the Trylle Trilogy to be painful to get through with awful charac...more

I live in Minnesota, and I write young adult paranormal romance and urban fantasy mostly. The
My Blood Approves
series is about vampires in Minneapolis, and its available now. I also wrote the Trylle Trilogy, which is a paranormal romance without vampires, shifters, mermaids, fae, angels, dragons, ghosts, or ninjas.
