Sapphire Blue (The Ruby Red Trilogy, 2)

Gwen's life has been a rollercoaster since she discovered she was the Ruby, the final member of the secret time-traveling Circle of Twelve. In between searching through history for the other time-travelers and asking for a bit of their blood (gross!), she's been trying to figure out what all the mysteries and prophecies surrounding the Circle really mean.

At least Gwen has plenty of help. Her best friend Lesley follows every lead diligently on the Internet. James the ghost teaches Gwen how to fit in at an eighteenth century party. And Xemerius, the gargoyle demon who has been following Gwen since he caught her kissing Gideon in a church, offers advice on everything. Oh, yes. And of course there is Gideon, the Diamond. One minute he's very warm indeed; the next he's freezing cold. Gwen's not sure what's going on there, but she's pretty much destined to find out.

I honestly wondered what Gwen saw in Gideon. Part of my problem is since the beginning of the first book only a week has passed, but she has decided she was madly in love with the boy. What he had going for him, he was supposed very cute and he played a musical instrument. He however did not have a high opinion of women, especially Gwen. He refused to tell her what was really going on and what they were trying to accomplish. He would go from hot, kissing and talking about how wonderful she was, to cold, barely acknowledging her presence and when he did acknowledge her he was incredibly rude. She spent a good portion of the book obsessing over him and his thoughts about her. Kinda baffled me.

My favorite interactions were between Gwen and her grandfather. There were two scenes between the two and I would have liked to see more or at least see those two scenes in greater detail. I thought he had an interesting perspective and liked the relationship they had.

I am really interested in how the series will end, not enough to go out and buy the book. I have it on hold at the library, but I do plan on reading it as soon as I get a hold of a copy.
