Elena has had to face many forces over the years. Now she is
learning about her destiny as a Guardian. Elena has chosen Stefan,
leaving Damon dark and extremely unpredictable. Elena tries to save
Damon's soul while being with Stefan. Even though she is with Stefan
she is still trying to figure out where her heart lies. Klaus has
been resurrected and will stop at nothing until he destroys Elena -
including those around her. While learning about her destiny as a
Guardian, a protector of Earth, she uncovers that to defeat Klaus
she must sacrifice someone close to her
The title Destiny Rising is well suited for the book and
helps the reader picture what the novel may be about. The plot
followed the same line but new problems kept arriving. The novel had
me hanging onto the pages. The novel is exiting with tons of tension
in the pages as I kept reading and I wanted to know how it ended.
