“Sapphire Blue” is the second book in the Precious Stone Trilogy written by Kerstin Gier. The series follows Gwendolyn a girl with a special gene that allows her to travel back in time.
Gwendolyn cannot believe she is with Gideon, not Charlotte, she is the chosen one. However, relationships between time travelers do not work as well as she might like. There are secrets she still does not understand, not forgetting about the count Saint Germain. What seems clear is that she has an important part to play in the prophecy and she is determined to find what it is. For doing so she knows who, for sure, she can trust, her best friend Leslie, the young version of her grandfather Lucas, as well as her new daimon friend, Xemerius.
This second book was a little less interesting than the first one. It definitely suffers the second-book in a series syndrome. “Sapphire Blue” is less about the mystery and more about the romance. While in the first book we saw how Gwendolyn and Gideon got to know each other in this one we really see how their relationship grow and also how people can get in the middle of it. The mystery continues in this book but in my opinion the author kept it in a second place. On the other hand, this also allowed the author to develop more the time-travel experience, taking time in explaining sceneries from other times as well as customs and manners, one of my favorite parts is actually the part of the soiree, because the author really does a good job picturing the ambient of that time.
There is one more thing I did not like much about this book was actually Xemerius; it was, in my opinion, a childish addition, I found it unnecessary.


In my opinion, “Sapphire Blue” was weaker than the first book in the Ruby Red trilogy. However, I will recommend following up the series as it is still a really original and entertaining series.
