Frostbite: A Vampire Academy Novel
Frostbite was very exciting, and really put the story into high gear. Halfway through the novel, I took a short break to purchase the 3rd, as I knew I wouldn’t be ready to stop once this one ended. I must apologize in advance, for how much I quoted some parts. I, myself, couldn’t describe the intensity (the “feel”) of the book and do it justice. I felt the book’s own words say it best…and I’m certain you’ll agree! (Not to worry! I don’t believe I let loose any spoilers in the process)…

Book Review – Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead
Vampire Academy
I must admit, I am completely mesmerized by this series. Absolutely, captivated. I tried to fool myself into thinking that since these were considered “Young Adult” (and I am… not so much…), that perhaps I might not find myself enjoying these as much, but I was wrong – dead wrong!
There may not be “adult content” per se, but the passion, intensity and emotional connections have ensnared me to no end. What I love is that there are many characters, all very vital to the progression of the tale, but each one is special, and highly likable.
Richelle Mead – Vampire Academy Series reading order:
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.
