A million things have been kept secret from me for as long as I can remember. And I’m sure there’s a million more.
However, for once in my life, some things are starting to make sense.
No matter what anyone else says, there’s a place for me. With Damen, Miles, Titus, and Julian, I finally belong. Finn might not be happy about it, but what I do is none of his business.

Start your review of Blood (The Grimm Cases, #3)

Well I'm not sure I found this book boring but it seems like everyone else loves it. Bianca annoys me she's too weak and fragile and doesn't seem to gain strength from anyone or anything. The boys are up and down depending on what happens. Then right at the end you have her parents who are obliviously hiding something. The book seems to drag out to get one or two answers and your left with loads more.

When I saw this series, I couldn't know that I'd grow to love it this much. I just really liked the cover and the blurb caught my interest. And when the first two books in this series were also available for free I just had to give them a go. I now finished the third book and I can say that I honestly don't regret starting this series for a second.

The Grimm Cases is a series that needs to be read in order, and this third book is another addictive addition to the series. Although I did not enjoy this one quite as much as I enjoyed book two, it is an important book in the series.
Blood answers many of the questions that have been building throughout the first two books, keeping the reader hooked as different aspects come together. In particular, this book brings the haunted house element of the series to a close. We get our answers to the ha ...more

The Feels!
The ending of this left me with emotions that made me frantic for more... but I’m gonna have to wait. There’s a bitter part of me that wanted to give this book only 4 measly stars because it left me hanging with tears in my eyes and a frantic heartbeat... but I couldn’t do it. I love this story too much not to give it my very best review.
Not only will I definitely be reading the next book, but I’ll probably be reading the entire series over again when it’s out.

More mystery
There are a few answers here, but just a few. More questions really, both from Bianca and me, as the confused yet intrigued reader! I still can’t quite decide if I even like Bianca, though she captivates me. Her brain just works unusually and the conclusions she comes to, or doesn’t, astounds me. She is growing on me though, and I have a feeling that has the picture of her life becomes clearer - I’ll love her.
But Finn? Seriously, what is the deal with him?

Even more secrets are revealed to Bianca. But she has her guys to fall back on for help. Finally she feels like there are people who understand her, like a real family. A place where she belongs. Finn is not willing to let her go just yet. She is still trying to figure out why everything was kept from her, why all the secrets and lies all of these years? But finally she is able to help someone, even if it is a ghost. She has the power to help and she wants to start learning how to pull her own w

For some reason when I started this series, I assumed it was completed -- just a trilogy. While I was loving everything I was reading, I was concerned it was going to end feeling unfinished and blah, blah, blah. Well color me surprised when I found out I must have been mixing up series, because this feels no where near to the end and I'M SO EXCITED. Now that I know it isn't going to have a quick slapped together ending it might actually be one of my favorite RH series.

Bianca is such a terrific, witty, quirky, slightly crazy character, and I love reading her thought processes. In this book, Bianca and the guys are trying to figure out the ghost situation at the house. I liked seeing their relationships continue to develop and also loved the dynamics with Bryce, Branden, and Xavier. The ending though - talk about suspense and a cliff hanger! Book 4 can’t get here soon enough :)

Damn, that ending though.
So, like I said in the review for book two, I am peeved we still know very very little on Bianca’s past. Sure, we can *somewhat* *kinda-sorta* see where the trauma comes from, we don’t actually know so it’s all guess work.
There aren’t as many POV’s from the guys in this book, which I’m somewhat disappointed in. I’m only okay with it because the plot got much better here and there was some character development from side characters we were supposed to not like originall ...more

So Exciting
I am loving this series. That ending, though! I need book four asap. Mostly because so much happened here and was revealed that I know I'll forget something during the wait. I had forgotten quite a few things between book two and this one being released. I'll probably need to do a series re-read before book four, which makes it great that a bundle for the first part of the series will be out next month.

3 stars
I was very disappointed in this book. The first two were amazing and this one I had to force myself to finish over 3 days, when normally it takes me hours. Absolutely nothing of note happened in this book (no real plot development, character development, or relationship development) until the very end, only to end on a massive cliff hanger. I have zero problem with cliff hangers, unless they are the only interesting part of a book, as was the case here. This book contained none of my fav ...more

After eagerly awaiting this book with baited breath (to the point where I sneaked some time at work to read), I was left feeling a little disappointed. it was still a fantastic read, and OMG THAT ENDING, but it lacked some of the oomph of the first two books. I couldn't tell you exactly what it was missing, but it was missing something. I still love the fact that none of the characters are perfect, and that they don't magically fix their flaws the second they meet each other. The fact that Bianc

I love this series and it just gets better and better each book. I’m glad the relationship between Bianca and the guys kicked up a bit and of course the moments between Titus and Bianca are my favorite <3 (just a bit biased) As I’ve said previously in my past review, I didn’t like Finn much however after reading the prequel I have a better understanding of him though I still hate the ways he went about with the things he did for Bianca. But because of that new found understanding, I felt bad for

I'm really enjoying this series! Bianca and the boy's interactions have gotten more entertaining now that they have made their affection s for Bianca clear. I liked how everything tied together in the haunting case. Bianca is really growing as person. I hope that continues. However, given the ending I don't think contact with her parents or Finn is heathly at this point in time. I believe it will hold her back. Hope things look up soon. However, I see possible bloodshed happening due to the boy'

Ok this is the third in this series , and my favorite. This is one of the best P.N. books I have read. This book shows you that no matter what you think you know, you dont know everything. The main character in this story is young and has a different way to see the world. She is sweet, funny, and innocent. She will make you laugh with the way her mind works. This story will make you laugh, and leaving you wanting more. This is a series that is a must. It shows you no matter what you think, you s

Confused but likeable
This story is really confusing at times. I don't really understand the whole hierarchy even 3 books in.... They also do not give Bianca information very often so you are aware confused as her. I do enjoy the story and Bianca cracks me up. She is quite funny in her thinking. I like the multiple Pov and seeing the guys side of things. I felt a lot of fear for her at the end. The ghost mystery was resolved but more questions about Bianca remain. I hope more answers are given in ...more

Woah.
I’m seriously reaching for anything more than “woah” at that ending! Woah. Just echoing around in my head on repeat. Woah. This whole book was a roller coaster. I’m still not sure whether Finn is a toad or if he’s just misunderstood, we learn more about some supporting characters and the guys and their relationship with Bianca, and the current investigation just about wraps up. And then all heck breaks loose just in time for the ending. Woah. Absolutely a must read series and this installme ...more

This latest installment of the Grimm Cases had me glued to my tablet. I still very much enjoyed the main female character, Bianca. Having had a very sheltered upbringing her thinking is original and caused me to laugh out loud several times. The male characters in the book are also engaging. The author did a phenomenal job of distinguishing the characters. I will say the ending killed me and I am eagerly awaiting the next book!!

This was by far the best book in the series to date. Bianca has come such a long way and as her power grows, people are starting to notice her, both good and bad. This book had me sucked in and the story was so good. Bianca is so different from any other FMC that I have ever read. I like her weird and different way of thinking and they way she processes the world. The ending was a huge OMG moment so I cannot wait to get the next book.

Just gets better and better !
I adore this series ! There are so many layers to each character and the subtle romance , the action , the mystery and horror ... it’s just all written so well it’s easy to get sucked into each book in this series , and Blood is no different ! Lyla Oweds knows how to tell a story that no one can resist and I for one am ecstatic to follow along . Truly a great read and can’t wait for Hidden to find out what happens next !

Blood
The revelations and questions in this series constantly keep me on the edge of my seat and begging for more. There is still so much to learn about Bianca, the Xing, a prophecy that keeps getting mentioned and so much more. Oweds knows how to hook you into the story, even while frustrating you with a lack of answers to so much happening. I’ll be anxiously awaiting the next book.

Amazing !
This sis such a good series and this is the best book yet ! Loved how biancas relationships developed more with the boys in this series ! They used more of their powers and we learnt more about their society ! The ending is such a cliff hanger but from the next books title it seems like she’s gonna be a away from the guys for awhile I just hope it isn’t for too long !

Well... i devoured this series in a day and a half... and while I sit here frantically searching for the next release, I can't help but be happy I stumbled across this series and finally took it out of my TBR pile. I really have enjoyed this slow burn RH series. I like how the story line is bigger than the romance and that each little piece of the story unravels to bring you further in to the conspiracy behind Bianca. ...more

One major plot line (the ghosts) wraps up here and I love their stories. The explanations for why they are the way they are and the way that past impacts things happening in the present is really well connected. I also love how respectful the guys are of Bianca even after learning who she is to them. They don’t put expectations of her past self onto her, they just continue to learn about who she is now. This book ends on a major cliffhanger.

This just seems just seems to be the tedious naivety as the first 2 books. Constant hints to Bianca's past, but as usual it's just hints. I was hoping for the main character to grow a backbone, but ....nope. I liked the storyline, but it's to much hunting with no actual information. An adult acting like a preteen. I'm not wasting time on this series anymore. It could have been so much better.

Omg I am so blown by this book. I totally loved it. It kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time. I love how Bianca's story has gotten even better and more interesting. Great job Lyla. I can't wait to read more of Bianca's story.
