Afterlife by Claudia Gray

Bianca and Lucas have always believed they could endure anything to be together. When a twist of fate not only transforms Bianca into a wraith but also turns Lucas into a vampire-the very creature he spent his life hunting-theu are left reeling.

Haunted by his powerful need to kill, Lucas can turn to only one place for help...Evernight Academy. Bianca is determined to remain with him. But with vampire leader of Everynight waging a war against wraiths, he former home has become the most dangerous place she could be, despite the new powers her ghostly transformation has given her.

A battle between wraiths and vampires looms, and Bianca and Lucas face a terrifying new reality. They've overcome every obstacle life has thrown at them, but is their love string enough to survive the challenges of after life?

I believe that this is the concluding book to the Evernight series, but I'm not really sure. I would love to review all the books for you...but I read the rest of them so long ago that I can't really recall much about them except that I did like them.

In this book we find ourselves back at Evernight Academy after Lucas becomes a vampire and needs someplace safe to figure out just what that means. At the end of Hourglass I was left reeling, so it was nice to start right where it left off. I have to say I found some of this book redundant. It seemed like Bianca kept thinking the same thoughts page after page for awhile, and then all of a sudden it was like she finally got whatever it was she wasn't getting. I had a hard time wrapping my head around the fact that her friends and boyfriend would have no problems hanging out with a ghost who could sometimes be a solid form. Sorry...just a little far fetched for me. I did love that we got to see more of Patrice, Balthazar, Ranulf and Vic! Then ending was surprising and then I also felt let down! ****SPOILER ALERT!!!!**** I felt like the fact that Bianca and Lucas were part of each other should have healed them both...not just Lucas! I really had a hard time believing that she really was fine with the fact that he was once again human and she was still a wraith...sorry...wouldn't you want to be human too? Just a bit too unbelievable for me! It was a good read though and I guess she wrapped it up nicely for us.

I gave this book 3 Stars!
