I love this book a lot. Though I read almost every kind of fiction, usually I'm more interested in the fantasy children books rather than YA. Yet, I enjoyed Vampire Academy thoroughly. The protagonist is interesting, as Rose is not your typical heroine — she kicks ass, she's flirtatious, hot-headed and reckless. While Lissa is more like an angel than a vampire. Even though you might find her less angelic when she becomes the ‘Queen Bee' later. Some of the minor characters also have depths, and that's what I really like from this book. Now, I have to admit that the male character I like the most is actually Christian. :)

Story-wise, the theme of friendship and social scenes are stronger compared to the romance aspect. Not that it's a bad thing. I especially like how the attraction between Rose and Dimitri develops, and it looks like things will start getting complicated for them from now on. But that only makes the story more interesting.

Overall it's a nice and addictive read. I love it, and will definitely get the next books! ♥
