Chosen--Zoey's Key Decision

SPOILER ALERT! This blog entry reveals information regarding the first three books in the House of Night series.
Chosen is the third book in the House of Night series--which, by the way, I definitely recommend! In case you aren't familiar with the series, here's a little background information....
Zoey, the main character has been Marked. Being Marked means that you have been chosen to make the Change into becoming a vampyre. Well, hopefully you make the Change into a vampyre because if your body rejects the Change, you die. Anyway, after being Marked Zoey moves to the House of Night where all fledgings (Marked kids) live and attend school; Zoey excels far beyond anyone's expectations. However, she finds herself in a sticky situation: her mentor and the head of the House of Night, Neferet, is secretly evil.
To try to defeat Neferet, Zoey has made a crucial decision; she has decided to work along side and trust her enemy, Aphrodite. They are bonded with the common goal of revealing the true Neferet and defeating her. Zoey and Aphrodite are the only fledgings on campus who's minds Neferet can't read, so although Zoey can't confide her discovers about Neferet with her friends because Neferet would inevitably find out, she can tell everything to Aphrodite, and Aphrodite can do the same with Zoey. I'm not sure what happens from here, but I am sure that this is a catalytic decision for Zoey. Working with Aphrodite should be incredibly beneficial for both of them, and without a doubt this will change how events will occur as well as both of them as people--well fledgings. How it will change those events, though, and them as fledgings is something I can only guess at....
