I LOVVVVVED THIS SERIES like crazy!!! (you’ll see the reading order guide, and my review links below). This is a MUST READ!
What’s it about? Kandace just asked that, too!
Kandace: What are the books like? Angst, romance? I’m sort of a newbie to this genre.. I’ve only read the fever series and a few BDB books.
Maryse: YES!! ALL of that, Kandace. Teacher-student romance!!! But… all of that vampire protection stuff. She is of a certain “breed” half human/vampire (I think if I remember correctly) and they are trained to bodyguard the royal breed of vampires. Her teacher is like her (half/half)… and he trains them in their Academy.
He’s the BEST of the best, and she’s pretty darn good too… but since it’s kind of like the end of high school, and he’s her teacher (and older than her)… it’s got that whole forbidden angle going on… plus SO much more angst that I can’t tell you about but that you will SCREAM at, and throw your Kindle.
I LOVED this series! Couldn’t put it down, and I felt every minute of it! Despite the fact that Vampire Academy is considered “Young Adult”, this series had masses of paranormal readers, of all ages, in an absolute reading frenzy. Non-stop action,romance, good vampires vs. bad vampires, social upheavals, and risqué tensions and situations that captured us completely, broke our hearts, and mended them again.
As per the author’s website:
Two races of vampires walk our world. The Moroi are alive and wield elemental magical, while the Strigoi are undead and evil–feeding on the innocent to survive. Rose Hathaway–a half-vampire with poor impulse control–is training to be a bodyguard for a Moroi princess. Learning to decapitate and stake is hard enough, but Rose’s real danger may lie in an illicit romance with one of her instructors…

OhMyGoshh, there has to be a seventh book coming out, about Rose’s life, and what happens to Lissa, and Dimitri!!!!!! :O
sorry shania, but Last Sacrifice is the last book in this series 🙁
but there is this another series thats in Sydney’s point of view though.
it’s called Bloodlines
Can’t wait until until Golden Lily!(:
Richelle Mead is a great storyteller, that’s for sure!
i wished there was another book in roses pov 🙁
I just finished the 1st book in the series and I loved it! I am already starting the next book. I read a lot and was wondering if anyone has read the House of Night series by P.C.Cast and Kristin Cast? Any thoughts on the series??
I read all the books in 3 days they were so good!!! and so far ive reread them 4 times! i really think there should be a 7th book!!!!! And Tiffany i have also read the house of night series and it is eaqually good!!! esspecialy with the romances of Stark and Zoey and also the whole forbidden relationship between Stevie Rae and Rephiam is AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There is a short story called Sunshine in Kisses from Hell.
It is about Lissa’s parents
You know the movie Vampire Academy came out Friday……and it was AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can’t wait to see it!! 😀
I read in an interview that richelle said she might go back to rose and the vampire academy after bloodlines is finished, hope its true! Oh andThe movie was great, i just thought the scenes went by too fast!
I LOVED this series! It was so good, loved Dimitri. I’m looking forward to seeing the movie, I’m planning on a matinee tomorrow while the kids are at school. I once went to a book signing with Richelle Mead, it was a mad house. But I got to meet her, and got a few of my books signed, which was neat. I really love her other series as well. Especially her succubus series, just awesome. I’m usually not much of a fantasy reader, but I like her style. The dark swan series is entertaining, looking forward to more of those. For some reason I haven’t been able to get into her VA spin off series. Maybe if I ever get through the zillion books on my TBR list, I’ll try again.
plz plz plz make another Vampire Academy book
I’m half way threw the first book and i had gotten confused as to what order everything is in. Thanks guys this made it all clear!
