Keys to the Repository Melissa de la Cruz Books

This isn't a Blue Bloods novel. This is more of an epistolary novel with diary entries, "declassified" files, key scenes in different point of views, and further background. In essence, it's the book you should read if you're still a little shaky with the mythos of Blue Bloods.

When I first read Blue Bloods in 2011 (only read the first two books, I believe), I had no understanding of the Blue Bloods mythos. I thought everything was weird, shaky, and coincidental. Now that I'm re-reading the series in 2016, and after reading this book, I have a better understanding.

So, essentially, in this book vampires are angels damned to Earth who go through "cycles" to earn back their place in Heaven. I'm not sure who told them that would work, but it's what they're doing. Their are immortal vampires, enmortal vampires, and silver bloods in this book.

Immortal vampires are the vampires most people know about. They drink blood to stay alive. Our immortal vampires include Schuyler, Jack, and Mimi. The thing that differs in this mythos, though, is that these vampires have spirits that are infinitely cycled via reincarnation.

Enmortal vampires are vampires that don't go through the reincarnation process, nor do they go through cycles. They drink blood to stay alive, just like immortal vampires. This series has enmortals Lawrence and Cordelia Van Alen, both of whom are deceased.

Silver bloods are vampires that feed on other vampires; namely, they drink all the blood of the vampire (meaning, the vampires' memories) and complete the corrupting process of Consumption. This series has a few silver bloods: Kingsley Martin, Bobbi Anne and Bliss Llewellyn.

This book gives you a greater look into character motivations, background, includes an index, breaks down the reasoning for why certain things happen in this book, and just seriously gives us a full view of the Blue Bloods world.

Keys to the Repository Melissa de la Cruz Books Reviews

The book isn't nearly as long as I'd like it to be. Honestly I felt like, when I purchased this a few years ago, it was a waste of my money. It was okay, but I've realized, as the vampire craze has thankfully died down, that the series is okay. Not the BEST, not the WORST, but I've certaintly read better.
The Keys to The Repository is a companion book to The Blue Bloods Series. Unlike Bloody Valentine this has less stories and more of well...the repository. It is mostly made up of fictious file and records. It answers a few plot holes which is helpful but I feel was a away for the author to get away without answer all of the coven's mysteries without writing them in her book. Not as entertaining as Bloody Valentine but useful to fans of this series.
The book is really really helpful, especially if it been awhile since reading the books. It has everything to know about everyone important and the main families. The part i love the most is the excerpts and bonus short stories that it has. It has sneaks to the next books, jacks point of view, and a sneak peak at her new series coming out, wolf pact.

The only thing is that at the end it tells about all the students at the school and a one sentence description of them so it is very long and boring, i honestly didnt read them all.

Overall really good to have and the sneaks are awesome.
Keys to the Repository gives you insider information that wasn't in the other books. Some of the information may have been mentioned a little in the books, but this little companion novel went in a lot more detail. It was nice to be able to refresh myself with the series. Some of the information I completely forgot about. I loved the extra short stories in this book. They were awesome!!!! It was good to see behind the scenes of the Blue Blood World. This was a great companion novel!!!!
I should have read the description of this book before I purchased it. It's just a recap of everything, a few extra details and some previews of books to come. It's completely unnecessary to the series. Anything worth reading in this book could have easily been included in the other books. It seems like it's just an attempt for the author to make more money.
I always enjoy when an author writes a companion book to a series; and that's exactly what this book is. It helps to have a more in-depth knowledge about the characters you begin to fall in love with. So, to have a book give us even more of an in-sight to these characters lives is just fantastic. Not to mention, when you run across a moment in a book where things just haven't completely pieced together in your mind, to have a book to pick up from a conversation that was never completed or a situation that was vaguely explained just makes the world a difference. Thus, any unanswered questions or thoughts get resolved or continued. All in all, I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys this series and it's a great addition to the collection.

It's been months since I finished reading book 4, THE VAN ALEN LEGACY and I found it a useful tool to refresh myself on the series and all the characters. I was pleasantly surprised that de la Cruz also included a few new mini stories that further explained a meeting, conversation, or a relationship that the reader was not previously privy to. We also get a taste of her new promising spin-off series Wolf Pact.

KEYS TO THE REPOSITORY is a quick and easy read with lots of refresher information, clarifications, character insite and some new juicy bits to keep things interesting. I'm not usually one for companion books, but I'd say this is a helpful and worth while read for any fan of the Blue Bloods.
