How to get selected items in wpf datagrid using MVVM

I want to get some selected rows items & try to manipulate them. Currently SelectedItem is giving me only one row at a time. And SelectedItems is not a dependency property. I found a solution by creating our own dependency property to get selected items. Is there any option apart from this?

Another possible solution is to add an IsSelected property onto the items your showing in your grid

public bool IsSelected
    {
        get { return _isSelected; }
        set
        {
           RaisePropertyChanged(_isSelected, value);
        }
    }

and to then add a style onto the data grid row to change that property.

  <Style TargetType="{x:Type DataGridRow}" >
     <Setter Property="IsSelected" Value="{Binding Path=IsSelected, Mode=TwoWay}" />
  </Style>

Then to get the currently selected items:

  var selectedItems = Items.Where(i => i.IsSelected).ToList();
