Misguided Angel is the fifth book of the Blue Bloods Series. Instead of getting old it just keeps getting better..at least to me!

This book in particular is told in 3 parts. There's Jack and Schuyler's story, which is about their lives on the run in Italy and trying to find one of the gates to the Underworld and finish Lawrence's mission.

The second part is about Mimi and her status as Regent of The Conclave and how she tries to deal with some difficult obstacles thrown her way.

And last but not Misguided Angel is the fifth book of the Blue Bloods Series. Instead of getting old it just keeps getting better..at least to me!

The second part is about Mimi and her status as Regent of The Conclave and how she tries to deal with some difficult obstacles thrown her way.

And last but not least the third part introduces a new character. Deming is a Venator sent from another Coven to try and solve some serious crimes that are being committed against the Duchesne Blue Bloods.

Besides these 3 stories there was also snippets of the earlier "Venators" in the 1400's tracking down silver bloods as well as demons.

I am really beginning to like Mimi, she becomes more likable in each new BB book. She is starting to show some real emotions and even feels badly for some of her past behavior. I absolutely hated her character before and now she is probably one of my favorites.
I'm almost not liking Schuyler at the moment because of the struggles that poor Oliver is going through. I know he pushed her to Jack but she knew that the Sacred Kiss issues were not going to be easily overcome, and maybe she shouldn't have started something she couldn't finish.

I think it was a good idea to bring in some fresh characters to keep the story from getting old. I'm also hoping Deming will play a part through more of the series and that her story isn't concluded after this one book.

The only complaint I have is that I wish there was more of Jack and Schuyler in this book and that there story wasn't left in midair. It just feels a bit incomplete.

I'm always excited to start the next BB book right after I read one but I just have to many series to finish up. I am also interested in reading the spinoff series about Bliss tracking the wolves who are supposed to help defeat the Silver Bloods. It looks like I'm going to have to incorporate that somewhere in between the Blue Bloods books. That means more good books to read! :) ...more

It was good but... the story followed three different threads. Each time I would get interested in one thread, the story would switch to a different thread. Sometimes I would even forget I about reading a previous thread and had to play catch up to remember. Sure, great brain exercises but it make the story less smooth. It was jolting to move between threads.
