Vampire Academy *Review*

Vampire Academy

By: Richelle Mead

Product Description:

St. Vladimir’s Academy isn’t just any boarding school—it’s a hidden place where vampires are educated in the ways of magic and half-human teens train to protect them. Rose Hathaway is a Dhampir, a bodyguard for her best friend Lissa, a Moroi Vampire Princess. They’ve been on the run, but now they’re being dragged back to St. Vladimir’s—the very place where they’re most in danger. . . .
Rose and Lissa become enmeshed in forbidden romance, the Academy’s ruthless social scene, and unspeakable nighttime rituals. But they must be careful lest the Strigoi—the world’s fiercest and most dangerous vampires—make Lissa one of them forever.

Do not become turned off by the title, summary or book cover like I first was!! I've never been a fan of having people's faces on book covers, since it ruins your image of the character in your head. But, I can overlook these covers, because other then that their beautiful. When reading all the negatives reviews about this book I didn't even want to pick it up. Boy, was I wrong.

Rose may be hardcore and alittle meaner then most characters you read a lot, but I still found her likable. In fact she's one of my favorite characters. The bond the two best friends Lissa and Rose had is touching and it's nice to see two best friends who aren't really alike caring for each other. The other characters are also amazing as well, especially Dimitri.

After reading this book I immediately fell in love with the characters, plot and environment. I've always been one who loves boarding school stories. Do not let the negative reviews full you!! Rose may be alittle mean and make dumb decisions, but she grows into a great character and learns from her mistakes. After reading this book I rushed out and bought the second one eager to see what happens next.

 Overall Rating: 9.5

Great book! Buy it! Love it! Worship it!
