Shadow Kiss (Vampire Academy #3)
Lissa Dragomir is a Moroi princess: a mortal vampire with a rare gift for harnessing the earth's magic. She must be protected at all times from Strigoi; the fiercest vampires - the ones who never die. The powerful blend of human and vampire blood that flows through Rose Hathaway, Lissa's best friend, makes her a Dhampir. Rose is dedicated to a dangerous life of protecting Lissa from the Strigoi, who are hell-bent on making Lissa one of them.
Rose knows it is forbidden to love another guardian. Her best friend, Lissa - the last Dragomir princess - must always come first. Unfortunately, when it comes to gorgeous Dimitri Belikov, some rules are meant to be broken...
Then a strange darkness begins to grow in Rose's mind, and ghostly shadows warn of a terrible evil drawing nearer to the Academy's iron gates. The immortal undead are closing in, and they want vengeance for the lives Rose has stolen. In a heart-stopping battle to rival her worst nightmares, Rose will have to choose between life, love, and the two people who matter most... but will her choice mean that only one can survive?
DNF. There's just so many other books I'd rather read instead. Might try picking this series up later, but I doubt it.

"I can't do it by myself," I whispered."You can," he said. There was a tremulous note in his voice. "You're strongyou're so, so strong. It's why I love you. Don't worry, little dhampir. You might be surrounded by clouds, but you'll always be like sunshine to me. Oh my god!!! I can't!!! That ending
DNF 10%Can't continue with this.It's so cheesy and I never liked the main character and I don't feel like reading about vampires anymore.
There's no denying it, I loved this third book in the series (probably best of all) and I finished it with all kinds of feelings and thoughts running through my head. The ending leaves the reader on such a cliffhanger and the fact that I am constantly being warned against reading book 4 just makes it all the worse. I want to know what happens... damn it, I NEED to know what happens. Can that possibly be it? (view spoiler)[Is there really no more hope for Rose and Dimitri? (hide spoiler)]I've

I loved this sequel because everything that happened here was remarkable. I saw the strength of character Rose was able to develop. I also loved the romance between her and Dimitri.

So far, Shadow Kiss is my favorite book in the series. Richelle Mead steps up her game on a number of fronts, in my opinion.Plot, characterization, style, pacing and romance. All of these receive a marked improvement.The VA world becomes more real, relatable and defined. The relationship become more involved, less childish and the main character, Rose, receives a healthy dose of adulthood.I am coming to really enjoy these books. I wouldn't have continued past the first one without the
