This is a great book and I highly recommend reading it! It is the first of the series as well as the base of a spin-off series called bloodlines.
Vampire Academy starts with Rose Hathaway and Lissa Dragomir and after their two year high school runaway, they are finally caught by the school's guardians and taken back. They are put back in school and part of Rose's 'punishment' is to train with guardian Dimitri Belikov to get her grades back up.
How it works in this world: Moroi are good vampires. Strigoi are evil vampires. Dhampir's are half vampires, made by a Moroi and a dhampir. Strigoi are either moroi who willingly turned OR moroi or dhampir's turned unwillingly. These live in the human world but humans don't know about them. They are regularly used to 'feed' moroi but will not be killed by one.
So throughout the novel someone is pulling extreme...pranks(worse than pranks) on them and they are trying to get on with their lives as normal vampires. All the while, Lisa is attempting to control her ability like no other vampire has ever seen. Lisa's life is in grave danger but will Rose, should the time come, be able to save her from a dreadful fate?
It is well written and the relationships are skilfully established! I hope my blog readers will at take a second look when seeing this novel in bookstores.
