St. Vladimir's Academy isn't just any boarding school-it's a hidden place where vampires are educated in the ways of magic and half-human teens train to protect them. Rose Hathaway is a Dhampir, a bodyguard for her best friend Lissa, a Moroi Vampire Princess. They've been on the run, but now they're being dragged back to St. Vladimir's-the very place where they're most in danger...Rose and Lissa become enmeshed in forbidden romance, the Academy's ruthless social scene, and unspeakable nighttime rituals. But they must be careful lest the Strigoi-the world's fiercest and most dangerous vampires-make Lissa one of them forever.

Review of 'Vampire Academy' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

si, estoulle dando 5 estrelas a un libro xuvenil de vampiros do 2007.

e que? realmente é un moi bo libro. os personaxes son complexos e reais. amo a Rose e a Lissa e o tipo de amizade que teñen (intensa ata chegar a ser codependente). adoro que Rose sexa impulsiva e Lissa algo people pleaser coa realeza. o universo é interesante e hai diversas xerarquías que están claramente propostas para seren cuestionadas nos seguintes libros. aínda que, ata máis ou menos a metade do libro, non hai unha trama clara, o estilo da escrita é lixeiro e nunca chega a ser aburrido.

non creo ter agora as neuronas para explicar moi ben este punto, pero adoro a mensaxe que ten este libro sobre a saúde mental e pedir axuda. podes ter medo de ser xulgado, mais as veces é necesario pedir axuda externa cando as cousas van mal.

Review of 'Vampire Academy' on 'Storygraph'

3 stars

I don't know why, but I've generally shied away from books about different kinds of vampires. I read their descriptions, I think maybe I'll try it, but I never do.

This book has a movie coming out soon, and I haven't started a new series in a while. In my defense, I have a two year old.

So finally, I decided to start this book. The world has everything. Vampires! Magic! Boarding school! church, and they still have technology and seem to live in the modern world as well as their unique one.

This book was exciting and interesting. I've read a few reviews that indicate that the series improves as you go along too.

I'll read the next one.
