Opinion:
I thought that this book was very interesting to read. The characters both had very deep actions and emotions that kept me at the edge of my seat wondering what they would do next. The fact that Rose could feel how Lissa was feeling made me even more excited. Even though Vampire Academy is slow at some parts the action builds up and makes it better and better throughout the whole story. At the end, it leaves a huge surprise that made me want even more. I can't wait to read more from Richelle Mead.
