If I haven't mentioned before.....I really hate the pictures on these books. The people are not that hot and they are too old.
Well, somehow I have submerged myself right into another love triangle. I fall for it every time but I am getting REALLY tired of it. Dimitri is still Strigoi and still alive after Rose failed to kill him. She has returned to the Academy in time to graduate and become a guardian. During this time she has promised Adrian to give a fair shot to a relationship with him. The whole cast of gradutates go to court to await their new stations in life.
Rose has hatched a plan to use Lissa's spirit magic to somehow change Dimitri from Strigoi back to dhampir. She needs information from the one person claiming to have already worked this magic. This includes breaking an enemy out of a secure Moroi prison.
There are lots of side stories. The book was entertaining as usual but by the time I reached the surprise ending and realized that this was NOT going to end the series I was.......perturbed to say the least. I don't know how much more I can take of Rose not being settled in a relationship. I want her to be with both Adrian and Dimitri......this seems to be a running theme in my life, er well, my literary life.
The side stories were good. The romance went up a notch. The mysterious ending left me intruguied but praying that the next book will put an end to it all. And finally, getting a little sick of the love triangle angle.
Rating 4 I will fully admit this is due to the emotion I felt over Dimitri, the gladness I felt over Rose and Adrian hooking up, and the intriguing ending.
Rating R Very strong language for teen fiction including multiple uses of the F word, sexual situations, smoking, alcohol consumption by teens, contraception.
