You cant help but root for her the hole way through till the end.
Especially when it comes to her & handsome/mysterious Dimitri Belikov.
Each book takes you on a rollercoaster of Forbidden Romance, Action, emotions,

This series is just pure excellence.
When starting the book, I was pretty sure that this book would be like most of the books I've read - boring, cliched. However, when I read the first book, I got hooked, I couldn't stop reading. I sacrificed my sleep to finish the book, and I finished the whole series in about a week.
This series is completely action-packed - what makes it special. Action, action, action. You'll never get bored. The twists and turns are just amazing. What I like most is the rom...more

My friend was continually trying to convince me to read this series but I was quite reluctant about vampire novels as I thought they could be a bit cheesy and over-the-top. But when I finally caved and read the books, I couldn't get my nose out of them.
It took me just over a week to read them all and I couldn't get enough! Each time I finished one I would think "it can't get better than that." But it did! Every book was better than the last.

Um, WOW. This book series was FREAKING amazing. I loved it so much, and Ive read the whole series cover-to-cover four times.
Good Points:
~Adrian. I really don't think that needs elaborating. Admit it. We all want one.
~The storyline. This was so well-thought out and unique. It really was one-of-a-kind. No cliche love stories<3
~Action. It had some kick-ass fighting scenes that rivalled that of violent books. It was fast-paced, descriptive and amazing.
~Lissa. She's an amazing best friend, just li...more

The most different story that I ever read,very new things are included in this series like compilation,vampires having powers,various kinds of vampires,when anybody started this series you will be overwhelmed with some kind of feeling,like when you experienced it while reading Harry potter series.It was advised by my friend and I'm glad that I took his advice.There is no one thing that I didn't liked in this series.Every ending of each part adds some curiosity to read next one and I liked the wa...more
Favorite series of all time. Definitely the best of the 'vampire' novels.

This is arguably my favorite book series. The first half of the series, which takes place so heavily in a high-school setting, portrays teenagers in their every-day interactions so well, even though the teens in this book aren't even human. Richelle Mead never failed to make me laugh, smile, cry, or curse. The story itself is spellbinding from start to finish and anyone who can stand the vampire genre should definitely give it a shot - especially because the mythological material dealt with is s...more
Love the Vampire Academy series! Big Richelle Mead fan. This is the best series I've ever read. Each book keeps the story going without monotony, and the story is so different and interesting..you really don't what will happen. Obviously these books are written for young adults & teenagers..pretty PG-13 stuff, although there are some sexy parts to be sure! Nothing too graphic though. A love story, with some kickass and a few twists and turns thrown in. Oh and vampires. And sexy instructors.....more
I loved Buffy when I was young, and even now (when I am OLD, 42!) I enjoy YA novels and still really like vampire reads. This was a little different than others I've been familiar with (a complete vampire society, different types of vampires) but I really liked it.
The first book was actually the most difficult to get into. It had a very abrupt start and was a little hard to understand until it explained some things later on. All the remaining books did have quite a bit of repetition (which would...more

I’ll admit, I started reading this series with a very skeptical eye. A part of me really felt like the vampire stories were all the same, so how could the Vampire Academy be different? I think I realized after the first book in this series that what Richelle Mead creates is a much different vampiric world than what one might expect. There are mortal vampires with magic in need of protection and the immortal and malicious vampires that are set on ruining the world. Many of the dhampir, half human...more
I absolutely love these books, they're the type of books I can re-read over and over again (and that doesn't happen often).
Rose in this, is definitely my favorite, she's witty, but strong at the same time.
And Dimitri - honestly, you always need a character him in your fantasy world, and Vampire Academy with Dimitri is mine.
All the characters in this series play a distinct role in my taste of humor and cheesiness.
Richelle Mead is an amazing author, and these books just proved her talent for me.

I REALLY liked this series...and I'm in my 30s and have 4 kids. I read the House of Night series, was appalled, and then someone suggested I try these- and they were fantastic. Much better, more believable, not near as dark, but very realistic. I really wasted time on the afore mentioned series but I have branched out now, from VA to the spin off Bloodlines books: and I like them even more...and am patiently (well not so patiently) waiting for book 4.
The first two books in the series barely held my attention, but at the end of both of them there was all this "OMG" and kick-ass action going on that I kept going. By the third book I was hooked. I love the fantasy fiction stuff, and am always excited when I find something orginial. This vampire book has it's own kind of vampires, not traditional or Twilight. There's a lot of girl power/ "I can take care of myself" indepent attitude in this book, which I really liked! Lots of fighting, defensive...more
This series is definitely a guilty pleasure set of books. The writing is clear but a little juvenile and clearly made for high school girls. Despite the fact that they are not shining examples of literary genius, I cannot help getting addicted to the plot; the hopeless romantic little girl in me likes the relationship-intrigue type stuff
This series rocks! I couldn`t put the books down until I finished them. Liked all the characters; especially Rose and Dimitri!! It`s not your typical teen vampire series. Richelle Mead added a lot of new things to these books, for example the Strigoi, the fiercest and most dangerous of all the vampires. Had me hooked from the beginning.
These books are fine if you want a bit of light hearted escapism. I read the series and enjoyed it as an antidote to a stressful and busy life. You will not be challenged in any way by these books but you might find them quite good fun!
I LOVE THIS BOOK!! It is amazing and everyone in the world should read it even if its not the right language for them. It is an amazing book and whoever reads this comment should read vampire academy!
This book has so many elements. You are always left wondering, anticipating for the next exciting moment which is never too far away!
Not some stupid vampire love book, a real kickass book!

TRUMPS THE TWILIGHT SAGA
FAVE SERIES
From book one to book six is packed with action, that true love kind of romance, and a writing style that makes you want to read a 1000 words per second.

I will admit I never heard of Richelle mead but as soon as I started reading the first book in the series Vampire Academy, I was completely in ore. I read the book 3 times in one week because I didn't have the next book in the series. I couldn't wait to go and buy the next book and just keep reading. I still remember a day me and my best friend sat down and each read a book in the series.

These books are written so perfectly they are utterly captivating. Rose is witty and sarcastic, one of the best characters I've ever read.
This is a must read. I will re-read this series again and again. If you like excitment and passion, then you will love this.
I wish the story didn't have to end maybe one day we will find out about rose and dimitri and how Adrian is.
this whole book series was amazing there was always something new happening to rose.
BEST EVER OMG I CANNOT HELP BUT FALL IN LOVE WITH THE CHARACTERS
