Sammie Jurdy I feel like its SO much better! I just really don't want the movie to ruin it like twilight did. I just pray it turns out into a great movie!


Vanessa Yes. There is a lot more to the story and I think Richelle Mead is a better writer. Love this series!

Christina Of course it is.

Medha there's NO comparison between the two series. Both are so different. I love Edward Cullen but I love Adrian too :)

Tracie I think it's silly to compare two totally different series' that have nothing in common except vampires and a main character in high school. I mean there are some things that you find in lots of YA books such as the love triangle but I mean really, these stories are totally different and shouldn't be compared to one another. I can say I enjoyed one more than the other but that doesn't necessarily make it better. Sorta how people try to say the book is better than the movie. They are two different types of medium; they can't be compared. You can enjoy one more than the other or understand one more but you can't really say either is better.

Purvi a strong heroine in vampire academy soo ya va is better :)


Scarlet Is this a serious question? Of course Vampire Academy is better than Twilight. The first series is about a strong and feisty heroine who has no problems bending or even outright breaking rules to fight for what she believes in. The second series is about a girl with the personality of a doorknob who wants her boyfriend to kill her so they can be together forever. It's a no-brainer which one is the superior series.

Danni Vampire Academy is a thousand times better, and I am not generally a hater of Twilight, but VA got everything right, character development, writing, originality, likability, and desperation to read more.


Krishna Patel uh duh it is way better than Twilight

Rhin Blandelli VA is much better than twilight... It has great plot and a lot of action,comedy and romance..


Rebecca Kennedy I think that they are very different in story line and characters. However, if you want that love story between two people that are confused then go for Twilight. If you want to see what happens when two people who love each other but there are others to consider then you should read Vampire Academy. I think that in the plot summary and excitement that the Vampire Academy series is better however, the Twilight Series was a little bit more grown up than the Vampire Academy series. They are both great in thier own right but if I had to choose a story line that is more exciting than both of these I would read the Laurell K. Hamilton series of Anita Blake.

Rhin Blandelli Rebecca you are very right Anita Blake is much much better than the two.. In my opinion Anita Blake is in a category by its self..


Krishna Patel Vampire Academy is a better book than Twilight.


Brittanyjeh I liked the Vampire Academy books better mostly because the characters are so much more likeable to me.

Cilla 2f Do you really have to ask? YES!!!


Anita Reads I think VA is a lot better than Twilight. The writing and pace of the books are better, and I love the fact that you're never quite sure what's going to happen.

I do like Twilight a lot though. They used to be my favourite books. I love a lot of the characters and their histories and there's a lot of humour in the books. I've never been a huge fan of Bella though. I think she has a way of annoying me. And I really loathed Jacob through all the books. In VA I love both Dimitri and Adrian. Even though their personalities are so different, they are both really great people.


Betlheam yes I mean VA ALL THE WAY twilight was BORING I mean the plot was absolutely crap I have no idea what was going on half the time I mean who will you choose bella im a werewolf but im a vampire but im a werewolf but im a vampirenn


Parmida Reads HELL YES.


Rebecca Kennedy I loved VA but I am worried the movie is going to ruin the image of what I have for the book. I am not sure but I saw a commercial for the movie a few days ago and the Dimitri character doesn't stack to the Dimitri that I have imagined as I read.


message 121: by Lauren (new) - added it

Lauren I'm not really that big a fan of twilight but i loved vampire academy. Not every every vampire novel is twilight. I found that Twilight did switch things up a little in the fact of making the vampires sparkle however i really enjoyed the fact that in vampire academy apart from the actual title the word vampire isnt even mentioned all that much mostly just damphir, moroi and stigori so that has an original spin on the term of vampire. I also just found vampire academy a lot easier to read compared to twlight and was more relatable (as much as you can relate to vampires).


message 122: by Tessa (new) - rated it 4 stars

Tessa Yes.


Betlheam I agree who the hell likes a sparkling vampire


message 124: by Deanna (new) - rated it 5 stars

Deanna Yes!!!! VA is a has a lot more action and excitement! But Twilight is very repetitive... :/...I also prefer Rose to Bella I mean what is better the kickass or the sit ass??? Really its not hard...(the answer is kickass) ;)


Rachael VA is way better. Bella is such a wimp. And Edward seriously he isnt even cute and what the heck sparkling vampires Twilight is just plain stupid No offense people


message 126: by Maria (new) - rated it 4 stars

Maria Yaqoob I feel I am being biased but I say Vampire Academy, but Twilight was also an amazing series but maybe I am judging it by it's movie but i am all for Vampire Academy!


Cas ♛ not sure. both good, bu VA lasts a lot longer in your head, while after you've read the saga you pretty much forget it.


Parmida Reads vampire academy. definitely...


Srikari YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
duh


Natasha No offense. Very stupid question. I like twilight but sorry twilight, this is one of the best vampire related books ever.


message 131: by Amity (new) - rated it 5 stars

Amity VA is much better for me. Twilight got me started on reading though.


message 132: by Kate (new) - rated it 5 stars

Kate Vampire Academy is exceedingly better due to the fact that there is an overarching plot line that extends all six books of the series. Mead's writing style is much more developed and approachable compared to Meyers'. Mead's character development allows for three dimensional characters rather than the two dimensional love and characters that Meyers presents.
I am partial to Rose due to the fact that I love strong female characters as a protagonist, and Bella was always weak and defined herself with her love for Edward. Rose was already a person without her love for Dimitri, but Bella defined herself with it.
The pacing and plot line of the VA series is amazing as well compared to the Twilight series. Twilight is the classic stock young adult book, credit though to Twilight for really bringing on the Teen Paranormal Romance genre. Vampire Academy provides so much more than the typical young adult books.
Vampire Academy gets my vote by far.

Julia Klatchko Hell YEAH


Sabrien Abdelrahman I don't like twilight AT ALL. And it shouldn't even be compared to Vampire Academy. So, yeah, Vampire Academy is a helluva lot better than Twilight.


message 135: by Yani (new) - rated it 5 stars

Yani Of course VA is better than Twilight. The characters are more attractive than this in Twilight and the story is much more interesting. I mean the Twilight weary you to death.


Javan55 Vampire Academy so much better.

message 139: by Payton (new) - rated it 4 stars

Payton Schurr Twilight is like poor bella and Edward and then I cant be with him because hes a vampire. Well guess what? NO BODY CARES!!!!! While in VA there's action and adventure. Twilight is all pussy teenagers needing a life!


Alexa2710 definitely YES! it is much better than twilight... discussion closed ... :-D


message 141: by Mary (new) - rated it 5 stars

Mary Let' see . . . Bella always needing protection or Rose who is a sarcastic badass. Love both series, but can relate to VA so much more.


message 142: by [deleted user] (new)

Ive read both series. But I enjoyed Vampire Acadamy better. They're was less filler crap and the main character was a strong capable woman unlike twilight. (Rose to Bella).


message 143: by Cecilia (last edited Apr 24, 2014 01:56PM) (new) - rated it 5 stars

Cecilia Vazquez I have read both series and can onestlly state with no hesitation at all that Vampire Academy is a better story than Twilight. In VA we get this female character thats independent and she is not willing to take bull***t from anyone and in twilight we get this damsel in distress and its just really upseting that the girl always needs to be rescued by the guy. I really hate the whole damsel in distress c*ap. VA is much better storie than Twilight.


Crystal No, but I like them both

Sabrien Abdelrahman Hold up, let me think about this. . .
Va: An awesome series about a phenomenal badass who can totally kick butt and think for herself, and who's always looking out for her friend.

Twilight: Love triangle. Bella who can't even protect herself from another human. The poor damsel in distress who's only life is picking a werewolf or vampire to love. Council of vampires. Baby. No badass.

Is it even a question?
So my answer to the discussion question: hell yeah!


message 146: by Rose (new) - rated it 4 stars

Rose When I read Twilight I really liked it but then in front of the VA series , the Twilight Saga seems ridiculous . Also VA has made a permanent impression on my mind and its own place in my heart which Twilight failed to because I Bella's so intolerable .
P.S - I love Dimitri & Adrian way more than the whining Edward and the unfortunate Jacob :P
