Dimitri gave Rose the ultimate choice. But she chose wrong-
After a long and heartbreaking journey to Dimitri-s birthplace in Siberia, Rose Hathaway has finally returned to St. Vladimir-s-and to her best friend, Lissa. It is nearly graduation, and the girls can-t wait for their real lives beyond the Academy-s iron gates to begin. But Rose-s heart still aches for Dimitri, and she knows he-s out there, somewhere.
She failed to kill him when she had the chance. And now her worst fears are about to come true- Dimitri has tasted her blood, and now he is hunting her. Only this time, he won-t rest until Rose joins him-forever.

I was just saying how I can’t seem to get into Y.A. and here I am reviewing another Y.A. book LOL. That’s the thing, there are some series that I simply can’t deny and Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead, is definitely one of those. I’ve been postponing reading this latest installment, waiting to get closer to the release of the last book in the series, so a couple of says ago i finally read it and I LOVED it!
Richelle is a master in the art of writing stories full of heart and action, not to mention characters that move you so much, you can’t really tell real from fiction.
Rose is one of my favorite heroines ever and even though she has gone through many different kinds of hell, places a 17 year-old should never come close to, in Spirit Bound she has to deal with even grander obstacles.
At the beginning of Spirit Bound we find our girl Rose still with Aidrian and finally getting to take her final test to become a guardian. The test is nothing but a blur after all that she goes through, throughout the novel. Prison Breaks, Sacrifices and Heart Breaks are only a few of the trials our heroine has to survive, not to mention the killer way Richelle ended the book, giving a little taste of the problems yet to come.
I got to see all my favorites back in this book, Dimitri, Christian, Tasha, Adrian. But, I have to admit that I am sick and tired of Lissa. Yeah, yeah she is a good friend, but the way she acted towards the end of the book pissed me off!
All in all, Spirit Bound is a fantastic addition to this incredible series, I couldn’t put this book down for a second not to mention all the tears I cried by the end of the novel! I’m just glad Last Sacrifice is coming out this Tuesday! I can’t wait!
