What can I possibly say about this book? I love it. It's a series I go back to every now and then to reread because I can't get enough of the plot and all of the intricacies we see develop throughout the series. Plus, the guys are swoon worthy and there is so much snark! Seriously, if you love good one-liners, READ THIS BOOK.

Well written typical teenage story. Without the overtly slang-ey dialog present in some YA books, I found Vampire Academy more mature and really liked it because of that particular aspect.

Reading these scenes myself I could not tell that Lissa was the one experiencing these things--and not Rose.

One of the best vampire books I've ever read!! I just couldn't put it down. The story was just so consuming, overwhelming with adventure. Rose Hathaway is just one badass heroine. I'm in love with her character. Of course, and also Dimitri. :))
