Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead Book Summary

**Read the book and watch the original TV series, now streaming on Peacock!**

Join the legion of fans who skyrocketed this six-book series to the top of the charts. Start here, with the first book that kicked off the international #1 bestselling Vampire Academy series.

Love and loyalty run deeper than blood. 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.

RECOMMEND. Absolutely recommend. Loved this book and the rest with all my heart. Romitri for LIFE 💜💙♥️🔐😍😘

Best book ever. Must read

LOVED THIS!!. If you're debating reading the series, PLEASE DO!! Best book series I've ever read and I really do love all the books. I love Roses personality and how it is narrated by her! Everything about this book series had me blown away and wanting more :)

Missing. Loved the book once I got further into it, but I felt like I was missing some background for it. Is there another book before this one?

Mediocre. It fell short of my expectations. There were parts that were interesting and great, but I felt as though the action fell short. The romance is boring and too cliche, which just frustrates me. It's definitely better than twilight, but it just didn't do it for me.

Best Book Overall. I love love love it!!!!! I LOOOOVVVE the series too!!! But the first book couldn't have made such a smashing hit! Rose's short temper and over protectiveness of Lissa will carry her a long way! And her relationship with Dimitri is a total WOW, their forbidden love is so feisty!! I was intrigued the whole time while I read by the end I was dieing for more!!!

50/50. I kinda lost interest it's still good don't get me wrong what's the point of the story if you want ti read a good vampire series read 'my blood aproves' by Amanda hockington there ramance and tons of vampire stuff u can sink your teeth into my opinion just give Amanda a try!

LOVED IT!. This book was really good. I originally got it because my friend and I said we were going to read it and she was reading it and loved it! I at first was kind of bored so for those of you guys that get bored really easily just power through the beginning! It's an amazing book and I can't wait to get the next one!

Vampire academy (just the beginning). One of my fav series couldn't put the book down. Gets better as the series continues.

YES. I read this book about a year ago and it's still one of my favorite books/series! I recommend this to preteen girls. It's amazing and so is the movie.

Meh. Boring. Hard to finish the book. Constantly waiting for something truly fascinating or exciting. Felt rushed and it felt like the connection with the main characters was lacking

The best book ever. These books are the best books I have ever read! My mom bought them For me because I was into twilight and thought they would be similar. The title Was weird so I resisted them but I was hooked after the first chapter and cried when they were over. Now I will forever look for my soul mate to be Demitri!!!!'<3

Good. This book has a good and interesting twist on vampires. I would recommend it.

The most amazing series I've ever read. When I first read these books some years ago I was captivated by every page, enchanted by how strong Rose was, the intense and seemingly impossible relationship with Rose and Dimitri - everything about this series is absolutely amazing. The way that those two were able to love each other has given me hope that one day I can find someone I love this much, and would do anything for. Six years later, this enrapturing story never ceases to amaze me and the sacrifices Rose makes for the ones around her makes me want to be as amazing as Rose and show my loved ones that they are my world and my everything. Thank you Richelle, I hope one day I can be as strong as Rose. And have a relationship as meaningful and loving as the one you have so deeply and perfectly described the depth of. Thank you. :)

Fantastic!. What a fantastic book! Finally got around to reading this on my day off, after a friend had been recommending it for months! I'm a really picky reader, so I was pleasantly surprised/relieved at how this story was written, especially after being disappointed by some other teenage-vampire novel that I shall not name... The story was captivating and really takes you into this world where Moroi, Strigoi, and dhampirs live. I literally could not put down the book (or in my case, iPad), that I finished it in one day! Going to start the second volume immediately! :)

Its good!. This book is good but its not the best it is a very good book

One of my favorite series!. I read this series after I read Twilight(before the movies came out) and these books far surpass them! It isn't just another teen romance novel about vampires. It's a unique series with a strong leading woman, Rose, that keeps you on your toes. It has everything you want in a book: action, romance, magic, etc. Love these books and highly recommend them!!!

My go-to series. I fell in love with this series when the first book came out and I love it just as much today. I would love more from these characters.

Vampire Academy. This book ended up being pretty good. I only gave it four stars cause it was hard to get into for a while. I think maybe because there was so much backstory you felt you were somehow missing at first. I kept thinking, this must be book two, because it seems like I should know what's going on. After a while I felt like I understood the basics and could get into the story. Hopefully book two will start off at a faster pace now that I know more about the characters.

Really amazing book. Best book I've read in a while, makes not want to put the book down after you start

Love this author. I absolutely love this series, as well as the authors new Sydney series. Wonderfully written and easily followed. Once you start, you can't put it down. It's action packed and also stocked with lots of romance and mystery. Can't say enough about this author. Women of all ages should read and enjoy!

So Fantastic!. Not even exagerating, this books series is the best that I have ever read. You'll absolutely fall in love and won'y be able to put them down!

My new favorite series!. These books are so amazing! I've re-read the first book three times already and am planning on re-reading the rest. The books are, of course, so much better than the movie. The combination of love, and violence constantly keeps you on edge. I found myself laughing and crying with the books as if I were actually there experiencing everything with Rose and her friends. I highly recommend this book and the series.

VA❤️. Loooooove this series!!!

Great series. A perfect mix of magic and vampires.

Ive read first three. love them just buy it.

Excessive rambling. The books overall story was pretty good however I just couldn’t get over the excessive rambling. You could read two pages without any actual dialogue and by the time you come acrosss a dialogue you forgot what the other character even said. Extremely repetitive especially with the other books in the series and just overall not something I expected to see on a bestseller list. Seems like it was written for 12 year olds and the only reason I finished the series was bc of the decent storyline. Also very hard to fall in love with the characters and rally behind any of them. Character traits felt very forced and I quickly grew tired, frustrated and bored with them.

Great book. I love this book and the book series but I have to say that there are quite a few misspelled words that could easily been fixed before it was published or printed. Overall i absolutely love this book! Thank u Richelle Mead for sharing your imaginative thoughts with all of us.

Great Books. This series by Richelle Mead is the best.It is an Mystery,Drama,and Romance all in one book series.

Great Book. Read this in one night. Look forward to reading the other five. Got for my 13 year old daughter and wanted check out first, I know she love it!

Good but not amazing. VA was a good, quick read. I will definitely continue the series but it just fell a little short of what it could be.

You will get hooked!. These books kept me coming back for more.. I started the series a week ago and am already on book 5 of 6! Tons of action and the characters are easy to understand.. Purchase the whole series. You won't regret it.

very good. overall the book was very good but i feel that the beginning was very slow and the end was to fast. can't wait to read the next one... hopefully better. this book was still very good!

Couldn't put down.. Great book, I could not put it down. Loved the characters and storyline. Definitely recommend.

Amazing. I watched the movie first and I love it. Now that I read the book I love the book series even more!

Gotta love it. This is the best vampire series I have ever read. This book mainly sets the over all plot for the series. At first it was kind of like what the heck am I reading, but it only bets better and better. I would recommend this book to anyone and everyone.

Jen. Loved it

Uyy un y. HoYyyuy CV CV un Yo y y h tu u cuyo t teca. ArEder

Amazing!. This book is so gripping! I never wanted to put it down but I couldn't big my iPod to school so I finished it in three days. You won't want to miss it! The author gives so much description but she knows when to not put too much. She knows what will keep people reading, not nodding off. The vocabulary is good and I only had to look up one words but I looked up two because I had just learned how and it was fun! Anyways, seriously read it! This isn't an average vampire novel. She create a world of its own! Off to read the next one!

I really love this. Love love love this book!!!!

AMAZING. I loved this book. It is one of my favorite books of all time and it is wayyyyyy better than twilight😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍🦄🦄

The Vampire Academy is not to be overlooked!. I have yet to compare any authors to the talent of Richelle Mead. Her ability to get you truly engaged in the Moroi world is so strong that you believe you are one of their own. You feel their hurt and pain, and most of all their love. (Although this has caused me to have many mental breakdowns in the agony of this tremendous plot.) Part of the reason why you are drawn to the plot is due to the genuine best-friend relationship between Rose and Lissa, a unique bond that fires Rose with the passion for what she does. Whilst most books of Vampire center and legend come from relationship between human and vampire (romantically, i.e. Twighlight), this unique perspective makes it even more worthwhile. The riveting action does so much more than take your breath away. I absolutley reccomend this series for anyone interested in reading it. Some simple advice, I’d just buy the complete collection from the start, considering it will happen sooner or later. In a nutshell, it’s a wonderful well written book (and series), with a balanced plot.Do not pass it up!

Amazing. Love this series my favorite!

Great Book. A must read

The best thing ever .. This book was everything a book should be it was funny . The characters were perfectly executed . Also the plot was so entertaining I literally read this so quickly . this was the best book I’ve ever read.

Incredible. A wonderful book! You can't put the book down. It's extremely amusing book. Loved all six books. You won't regret reading this I promise.

Loved it!!!. The book starts off with a power rush! The heat and intensity between Rose and Dimitri sets pages on fire! Beautifully written!

😭. This book is truly entertaining for fans of the show and especially the movie

It’s great I guess. It’s a good book sometimes not even in this one book this whole series I got really annoyed but her decisions and thinking it’s not her it’s her decisions she really needs to start thinking for herself and others but other than her decision making this whole series is chefs kids

Vampire Academy rules.. This book was amazing. Getting to know the characters through the tone of the book was awesome, and made the whole reading experience much more interactive. Rose's fierce attitude and Lissa's calm demeanor really tied the girls together, not just through the bond, but through sisterhood too.

LOVE IT 😍😍🤗🤗. This is an amazing book and an even more amazing book series!!! Let's just hope they turn the rest of the books into a movie or tv show like the first book

Awestruck. The moment I picked this book up, I knew I had started a new obsession. The plot was so compelling, but had all the love and friendship drama a teen craves. I have become immersed in this bright new vampire world. It is certainly the most realistic vampire book I've read. The characters are loveable and good people. They are complex but so accessible. Rose and Lissa's friendship, despite facing depression, unruly magic, relationship drama and even peer pressure is so realistic and full of a sister like love. And Rose Hathaway is the most incredible female role model you could give to a girl my age. She's someone who speaks up for what she believes is right, no matter what the consequences. She is incredibly strong and smart in a way that rivals any man, as well as a realistic, sarcastic 17 year old who isn't afraid to be sexy or break the rules for the greater good. She's not even scared of facing down Strigoi. She is a true badass. I have just finished reading the Ruby Circle, and this series has brought me so much joy I cannot even express my gratitude for such an exciting and emotional adventure. Your books teach the importance of friendship, bravery, acceptance, and love. My only complaint is I am now out of reading material on my favourite characters. I want MORE! 😂 maybe I'll have to write some fanfics, because after Vampire Academy, I could never ever quit this series, 12 books that rivalled each other in quality and character. I'd suggest this to any teenage girl, and am so glad I could live a bit of my dreams through this series.

Good book. Awesome book it starts of slow but gets really good it's not like any other vampire book I have ever read so I would get it if I was you

Ridiculous price. Great book glad I read it when I was 13 cause I can’t afford to read it on my phone $10.99 a book crazy and over priced

I love it so much. To start off i was never going to read this book to start with but my best friend made me . At first i thought that it was going to be really cheezy and stuiped but it rocked. The main charater is Rose Hathaway and she is not like bella in twilight at all . She is not helpless at all. I have read the hold 6 book in the series and i can re-read them over and over again . so if you want to buy a book that you can and are willing to read again so it is not a total waste of money this is it

Best book. I found this book thrilling, romantic and consistent.

Upset...... I don't have a credit card and I want to get all the books of vampire academy and bloodlines by richelle mead on my iPad and I can't so you should put the vampire academy books and the bloodlines books and the vampire academy ultimate guide on the free list so when a vampire academy fan wants to get it like moi they would be able to get it if they don't have a credit card or at least put a debit card option if someone don't got no credit card!!!!!!!!!
