It's springtime at St. Vladimir's Academy and Rose is close to graduation, but since making her first Strigoi kills, things haven't felt quite right. She's having dark thoughts, behaving erratically, and worst of all . . . might be seeing ghosts.
Consumed by her forbidden love with her tutor Dimitri and protecting her best friend, the Moroi princess Lissa, Rose is in no state to see the deadly threat that will change her entire world - and make her choose between the two people she loves most.
Rose is back at St. Vlad's for her third year, but not without a dark cloud looming over her shoulder. But now with the loss of her best friend, Rose must now navigate her way through her guardian graduation, but is it that simple?
Dimitri is there to help her along the way, but how much longer can they go trying ignoring the only thing they want?..Each other.
Though there's bigger problems at stake when Rose starts seeing strange things and Adrian is the only person who knows what she's talking about, but can she trust him? As she grows closer to graduation, so do the deadly Strigoi to the school grounds and they won't go down without a fight.
Join Rose as she battles her way through yet another year of school, and she starts to wonder if Lissa is actually the sane one in their relationship.
Or is she the one that's been mad all along?
Shadow Kiss by Richelle Mead, is the third instalment in the Vampire Academy series and what a book it was. The book flows on perfectly from the following Frostbite novel and I honestly think its my favourite within the series so far.
The story is more intense, more romantic. There's a bit of everything within Shadow Kiss, I cried, I laughed and I was so heartbroken by the end of it, what a roller coaster of emotions! I'm happy that I have found another series to sink my teeth into and can't wait to get started on the rest of the books.
The storyline seems to get richer, more in depth as they go through the series and I'm loving that it does. Vampire Academy books have been out for a good few years now, but they're certainly ones that you don't want to miss out on.
I will be giving this book 10 out of 10
