Vampire Academy: Love it

Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead is an amazing book that seriously has it all. Forbidden romance, danger, everything that could possibly be wanted in a Vampire tale. There are four books that are out for sale in the series.

1. Vampire Academy
2. Frostbite
3. Shadow Kiss
4. Blood Promise

The fifth book (Spirit Bound) will be coming out on May 18th 2010. The sixth book, which does not yet have an official name will be coming out late 2010.
Richelle Mead is incredibly talented. Her tale of love, and loss drags readers in, far more then Meyer could ever have done with Twilight (I mean seriously, in Breaking Dawn Bella and Edward only do it) Rose Hathaway (who is the main character of Vampire Academy) is hot, spunky and a hero herself. She doesn't wait to be saved. She fucking saves herself.

The Vampires in Vampire Academy are very unique, there are two different types of Vampires... along with Dhampir's... who are more... interesting.

Moroi: A Mortal Vampire, who is good. Moroi have an unbreakable bond to the earth's magic
Strigoi: A evil Immortal Vampire. Moroi must be protected at all times from the Strigoi
Dhampir: A half human-half Moroi. With human strength and Vampire senses, they make the best bodyguards. They are the ones who protect the Moroi from the Strigoi Day and Night.

So, why read Vampire Academy? It has an awesome plotline, and awesome author. I highly recommend it, it is an international bestseller. If you want to find out more about Vampire Academy, or its author Richelle Mead there are links below to find out more:
