Book Review: Shadow Kiss (Vampire Academy, Book 3) by Richelle Mead

by Alexandra Gross – St. Matthew School, Calgary AB Feb 18, 2010

4 stars

A suspenseful story that revolves around friendship, forbidden romance, betrayal and an abundance of humour, Shadow Kiss (the third book in the Vampire Academy series) is the perfect book for teen girls.

The novel, like the previous books in the series, is written in first person and narrated from the point of view of a 17-year-old female Dhampire (a person who is half human and half vampire) named Rose Hathaway.

All teen girls will love Rose’s entertaining sense of humour and dedication to protect her best friend, a royal Moroi (mortal vampire) named Lissa. But Rose’s growing love for her combat trainer, 24-year-old Dimitri Belikov, puts a strain on that dedication – and it doesn’t help that Dimitri is unable to fight his forbidden attraction to her either.

In Shadow Kiss, Rose must brave the many problems that confront her and the Academy, as well as choose between the two people who she loves most.
