I'd forgotten how much I loved this series and in particular, this book! It has everything I could ever want! A bit of Rose and Dimitri action, I mean who wouldn't want that? Death, life, friendships and relationships of the romanticle kind being tested! Literally if anyone asked me to reccomend a book right now it would most definitely be this one! 10/10 would read again.
Shadow Kiss is the third installment of the Vampire Academy series and it does not disappoint. Mead's paranormal world is doses of light and funny mixed with just the right amount of dark and evil. She pulls you into the world with her own twist on all things that go bump in the night.
Rose is a bad ass and I like her even more after reading this 3rd book. She's strong and smart, and I love that she bucks the system in all the right places. Likewise, I'm a fan of Dimitri's and this book takes readers on a twisting ride where he's concerned. Mead doesn't skirt around the hard plot lines or try to tie everything and everyone up in a nice, neat bow - I appreciate that in her stories.
Two more characters have grown on me - Christian and Adrian both bring action, wit, intrigue, and style to the story. Adrian steps into the limelight more in this book - I enjoyed getting to "know" him a little better, but can tell that there must be much more where he is concerned.
The book takes an unexpected turn towards the end that will leave readers with wide eyes and hungry for number four.

The ending was amazing. No words can describe how great the ending was. When Dimitri turned strigoi my heart sunk. Rose loved Dimitri, but at least the next book will be that much more interesting.
