Book three gets even darker for Rose. She realizes that she might be taking some of the dark feelings that are conjured in Lissa when she uses magic. It is nearing graduation and Rose is sent out to do her field test. Instead of guarding Lissa, she ends up being Christian's guard (Lissa's social misfit boyfriend). Rose's anger begins to get the best of her. To make matters worse she starts seeing ghosts. Having made her first Strigoi kills have only made her closer to the world of the dead.
When a huge group of Strigoi attack the Academy, Rose is faced with losing what she has waited so long for (or at least it felt like it) ....Dimitri.
I loved this book just as much as book two. Rose has more depth and the psychological toll that it takes to put someone else's needs before your own.....always....is delved into. Her friendships with other characters and her mother, play a larger role this time around. And of course the romantic tension keeps building. Very bitter sweet.
Rating 4 Still not top notch lit. but I really did go for the wanting what you can't have aspect.
Rating R teen sex, alcoholism, violence, tense and scary.
