The Golden Lily by Richelle Mead




5 Stars


Tough, brainy alchemist Sydney Sage and doe-eyed Moroi princess Jill Dragomir are in hiding at a human boarding school in the sunny, glamorous world of Palm Springs, California. The students--children of the wealthy and powerful--carry on with their lives in blissful ignorance, while Sydney, Jill, Eddie, and Adrian must do everything in their power to keep their secret safe. But with forbidden romances, unexpected spirit bonds, and the threat of Strigoi moving ever closer, hiding the truth is harder than anyone thought.

Sydney has to pose as Jill's sister while they are in hiding at a school along with Eddie and Adrian(supposed brothers and Angeline(supposed cousin). Of course Sydney is known as the authoritative family member. In this book you will also see a lot of Dimitri from Vampire Academy, also Sonya. 
During the book there are many relationship problems. While Jill is dating Micah, a human from school, Eddie is secretly in love with her. At the same time Angeline is very interested in Eddie. 
Sydney finally gets a boyfriend(very unexpected), Brayden, who is as smart as she is. Being with him was comfortable considering they could talk about many things and the other will know exactly what they're saying. At the same time she spends a lot of time with Adrian. During the entire book you can start seeing Adrian falling for Sydney. But of course Sydney doesn't even notice until he finally tells her at the end. Which I thought was a great ending. Does Sydney love him back? Read the book and find out! 


While all the love triangles are going on they have a bigger problem. The human Vampire Hunters are real! You'd be surprised to find out who's a part of the group too! The hunters believe Sonya is still Strigoi and is using magic to make her seem normal and they end up kidnapping her so they can kill her. Sydney does the unthinkable to find Sonya!


This book was great! I am so ready to read the 3rd book, which doesn't come out until 2013. Richelle Mead is very good at her work!
