The ending of shadow kiss (spoiler)

[i] so at the end i about die that was so horrible i couldnt get passed it i was so depressed after that no offence but when they took eddie i was yes ! then i felt bad so what do you all think about the end?

For me, there isn't really a true ending to this book. The 'ending' was Rose leaving the school to find Dimitri and basically kill him. We were left with so many loose ends. Was Dimitri really turned? Is he still alive? Will Lissa follow Rose? Did Mason tell the truth? Can he help Rose find Dimitri?

Frankly, until you mentioned Eddie, I didn't really think about him. IMO, he's not all THAT major a character.

I agree. Eddie's just seemed to kinda be there in SK. The ending was sad, definitely. Morbid tone, but if you think about it, would the series be good with out heart ache? You have to have drama and OMG moments for it to be good. If it was just easy it wouldn't be fun to read. So, in a way I respect it but I still hope it ends well..

Agreed. I just don't like when I have to wait months to find out what happens next.
Haha, ugh.

True...the series would be dull if there was no drama or "OMG moments". And yes, I would like a happy ending, too. Happy doesn't have to be cliché, just happy.

This wait is killing me, too, Hanner. How much longer? Can we get one of those 'widgets' on here to count down to Blood Promise? LOL!

I vote YES!

But that would require us to know how to I suppose... I can't get one to work =/

I don't know how we would be able to have one for the site...but I suppose everyone could make their own "ticker". It's not as fun. But I guess it will do in a pinch.
Now do we have a for real official release date? That would be a plus. I have seen on both Richelle's site and at booksellers' sites that it's August 25. *groan* It would be nice if we could have it sooner.

I am pretty sure it's August 25th, I checked on Amazon when I could buy it and it said I had to wait wait until the 25th....
Sooooo 67 days left!!!

hey if anyone is interested i found a blood promise count down here

Thank you for the link. But the options were all for blog things and facebook type things. Do you know how one would be able to use it here? I am asking sincerely because I'm not all that techie.

ooh i would like to help, but i´m very internet challenged, i bumped into that link while searching for VA forums, and later i found this forum yay!

That's all good. Maybe a mod or admin can help us out with that.

Although a Mod, I don't have much editing rights....sorry. I've emailed the owner to change Book 5's title on the forum since I can't even do that much.

yesh SK was super sad cryed alot!


was my fav book tho.

i liked it to but i dont find it very funny when dimitri makes his first apperance as a fake strigoi and Rose is marveling at his beauty at being the perfect fake strigoi and then it turns out to be true and shes repulsed god thats not the least bit funny i say this because my friend said it was it pisssed me off

I cried when Dimitri got bitten by Blonde Strigoi, Mason telling Rose that Dimitri is Strigoi and when Rose and Lissa quarelled. I wanted to throw the book but I couldn't, so I just kept on crying. Am definitely psyched up already for Blood Promise!

well ive read BP already and well you'll love and hate it.
i know right i cried from chapter 28 to 29 i wanted to rip the book to shreds when i first read it but even though ive read it 3 times now i still cry its just so heart breaking ooh and in BP you'll cry constantly from chapter 19-30

Shadow Kiss was definitely my favorite book of the series. The ending is soooo SAD! I cried a lot!
I really loved the battle part though. I seriously couldnt read fast enough, it was really intense

i know right?!
i loved it i think it was the best in the series BP was a filler book to me but it gave us our next step to Finding and Saving Dimitri

To be honest the ending to SK was like the beginning of the end.

I was heartbroken when Dimitri got bitten and i cried when rose was freaking out over not finding his body. I cried a lot actually but what made the book amazing for me was that Rose has changed A LOT. I love the new rose but its heartbreaking when she's been putting everyone ahead of her own wants, especially Lissa's. She would die for Lissa and that's what makes her so honorable.
