I enjoy fantasy the most when I read, and lately I mostly read vampire fiction. That is why I started the Vampire Academy series. People recommended it on several booksites, so I thought I might aswell give it a go, despite the lame name of the series ;) I thought Vampire Academy was alright, but abit juvenile and I found myself getting abit annoyed with the main character in the books, Rose. I liked the Dimitri character alot, so thats why I had to read all of them. But overall, decent books to spend some time with, but not exactly "game breaking". I would give them a 5 out of 10, on a rating scale of 1 -10.
After I finished Vampire Academy, I thought I would continue with the Chicago Land vampire series, which I found to be more adult, and the main character is smart and funny, more relateable, and I found myself chuckling several times after things she says. But her Master vampire, Ethan, just rub me off in the wrong way (not my kind of man), and the decisions she makes around him just really bugs me, I cant explain it proper without doing major spoilers, but these books didnt really capture me, I just kept reading them for the hell of it, and not because I was actually a 100% captured by the books. More like a "I started it, I will finish it". I would give the series a 6 out of 10.
A series I really do enjoy, is the Nighthuntress series. I love the characters and the lover (Bones) of the main character (Cat) is just yummy in his description and his humor, everything. I really enjoyed those books. Especially the first two books in the series are really captivating, and the story is interesting, and the tension between the characters- Exciting! I would definatly recommend this series to any adult vampire fans, and it beats the hell out of the Twillight series, and it is way more sexy ;)!
