Vampire Academy
by Richelle Mead
This books was fantastic, I breezed through the writing, the characters grew on me in a good way even if they did rub me the wrong way at times The world is perfectly explained and I loved the Vampire types and the boarding school setting.
I was so prejudiced about this book, I mean the cover, the name, even the synopsis didn't really interest me (I haven't read a vampire book in a good 5 years) Thank you to everyone who still raves about this book because you're the only reason I picked it up.
Characters:
Rose:
- Bit of a bitch
- Snarky as hell (I like)
- A fierce friend (even if she does go a bit to far sometimes)
- Strong girl
- Confident with her body and in herself
- Upfront
Lissa
- Complicated character
- warring with herself
- Traumatised past that has turned her ino the person she is today
- Not a snob
- Not an asshole (she balanced out Roses bitchiness quite well)
- A fierce friend
The boys
Man if it was 8 years ago I would have been in love with all of these characters, right now all I can say that I really love Dimitri and can't wait to see more of his character.
Dislikes
Rose could be a but to much of a bitch at times, I guessed at all the mysteries right away, why couldn't our characters catch up a little faster? Some things were very cliche but I felt like it was written so well it got away with it.
Bring on some more Vampire action :D
