and don't forget that the mind reading thing was from sookie stackhouse series. i don't like that book but read it and u'll get to know what a cheater Meyer is!
lol sorry I like to argue a bit. And mind reading is common, just because it's somewhere else doesn't mean she coppied it. Mind reading is an old myth and it's for anybody to use. It can be called copying but it's just an ugly word to use for it. It's implying she's a cheater. No but everybody I know mentions the sparkling thing. And tons of people have fallen in love in school. That's common too. Maybe she wasn't being original with her imagination but it's still an idea of hers with how she made it come about and presented it.And also every single writter writes from there experiences. So there can't be any juding on copying or similar ideas. They all do It.
ok girl, i agree till a point... i write too and i wouldn't like to be called names just because any of my stories may seem similar to others! but that's why i try new ideas in my books, new characters and situations! and i get so thrilled every time! i love my imagination! :D
I agree, everybody should try to expand there imagination and try new ideas. Or else things in life would be boring and nothing new would come around.

vampire academy is my favorite but i do love twlight the movies were not that bad ...look i think people need to leave the author alone the things they say are mean and how would u feel if u had an idea you thought was great and then some people stomp on it just cause they didn't think of it themselves making all that money or jsut because they don't like it. people don't have to be so mean with ere opinions. some bad critism is good but some people take it too far sometimes. i like IRENE i just have a different oppinion and i respect hers too...

Thank you :)
Thank you :)
So we've distinguished the twilight vs vampire academy.
Any other books we need to put up against VA?

don't have any idea.... has anyone here read the dark-hunter series or the black dagger brotherhood? i can't choose between the 3 of them, they're all favourites!
Oh yeah, as far as Vampy books go, Guild Hunter, Kate Daniels, Mercedes Thompson series, and Night Huntress.
Each have their own pros but the depth of character development and use of lore is wonderful. They all have stubborn ass girls who fall for a hardass guy and the two beat on each other at points, which is always an interesting relationship.
Guild Hunter pulls in the Angels and wraps an interspecies world together with vampires and human.
Kate Daniels pulls in a more contemporary look at were-creatures, vampires, and magic.
Mercedes Thompson pulls in Fay lore and much ass kicking, pain, and suffering.
Night Huntress doesn't do much in terms of tangent besides some demonology and the point of view gets a bit odd.
But in all these and VA, the characters are given struggles and suffer through life. They don't just walk by with their uberness and scoff at the worst the world throws at them. That would be so incredibly boring overtime. Characters grow and develop through the choices they make at the junctions in their lives.
That was the problem with Twilight series, especially the ending which was all, flaunt flaunt and everything simply ends and they live happily ever after. None of them grew or evolved. You never spent much time really getting to know the characters in the way you do in other good books.

oh yeah! the characters where just so incredibly sexy and the scenes so arousing most of the times! i LOVE the black dagger brotherhood series! and the dark-hunter series are also great!

what do you me? the names? dark-hunter,black dagger brotherhood and vampire kisses, all my favourites with VA! (and vampire kisses a bit more i dare say... :) )
Uhm... *looks at everybody else for help* I don't know how to explain how to do it, I guess I can try and check it on how to do that.
You can click on the book, scroll down till you see 'recommend book' then you click on 'friends' then you click on which friend. I will, but non the less I have taught you something :)
he was asked to play him many times before adn ppl even asked him about it but he never relle said anything about it..but i hope he takes the role, hes a great actor and he actually looks like our beloved Dimka!
he does seem a lot like dimitri, but i would prefer to see a new actor in the role, someone nobody knows yet, so he will be more real for me! i don't know if you understand me exactly... i just need a NEW obssesion!
Lol I can see Ben Barnes playing Dimitri, to me he seems to fit the discription the best. If they could find somebody not famous to play Dimka that would be cool, but it would be harder to find someone that fits the description not famous than to just choose Ben.

I don't know ben barnes either, which is why he's not really famous to me. He has acting experience, but not to much to where he wouldn't even try to put effort into the movie.He has been in movies, but not too many.

i think that paul wouldnt play him well..idk whenever i think of him, i see him as Stefan..cant see him as Dimka but he does make a pretty good vamp!
Dimka is a book character, he's not real so we can't have a real dimka. The thing about books is the reader uses there imaginations and create what they think the world looks like in there mind (includig the characters), and the thing about imaginations is that everybody has a different one.
idk i mean Paul doesnt have the russian accent but he looks good! i honestly dont like guys with long hair so anyone they pick i wont really like. and (girl above this comment ^) your right. ben doesnt have that much experience in movies. but most of what he has been in as been fantasy stuff. so he kinda has experience with this kinda stuff!
