Byron Gibson fbg111da6e — i'm still right, but he's not nearly as funny as al franken.

Luc Minarro lucminarro — Original Review on http://reutreads.wordpress.com/2011/0... Okay, I know. Shoot me now. Yes, I admit it. I am only now reading Vampire Academy. The truth is, I first came across VA at a bookstore about a year and a half ago, when I was just beginning to get sick of vampire books. I immediately dismissed it as a typical love triangle, vampire story. Vampire Academy is not that story. Rose is such a badass it's hard to imagine her being nice to anyone, but Richelle Mead pulls off characterization so well, that we feel sorry for her as well as like her. This book has everything; romance, best friends, hot boys, mythology, evil villains, secrets, and some definitely clever dialogue. What I really liked about this book, among other things (that will also be mentioned) was how real it was. There was just this... groundedness that you don't see in much YA. Rose knew herself well enough to see when she was doing something wrong, and she is definitely one of my favourite female protagonists ever. Like I said, it was real. It was also dark. A character in particular struck me as totally depressing. Those of you who are privileged to have read this know who I'm talking about. There was sex, wild parties, and an affair. All things that regularly go on in high school. Richelle Mead does not skim over any of this. And I really liked that. Another thing I liked was the way the plot flowed. It was so, so, so well thought out. The author obviously had a plan for everything. The "mythology", for lack of a better word, was also thought out well. The bombshells that are dropped every so often completely fit with everything else. If you're looking for a smart, funny, and white-hot vampire read, please read this.

Trent Daniel tbdaniel — Beautiful novel about love and loss.

Luke Mccomb lukemccomb — ** spoiler alert ** Amazing story. Absolutely amazing. I have such a deeper appreciation now for why they are called "The Greatest Generation." Pretty much the entire book, I was on pins and needles and feeling so worried for Louie. I could not believe the descriptions of abuse in Japanese POW camps- I know I would not have had the mental fortitude to survive it. That is, if I somehow managed to survive the plane crash and FORTY THREE DAYS ADRIFT IN A LIFE RAFT WITH NO PROVISIONS!!!!!!!!!!! The entire book, I was just blown away by Louie's life. How he managed to survive. Amazing. I was a little worried toward the end because of the whole alcoholism thing, but of course, Louie managed to pull through and be our hero once again. The one disappointment with the story is that "The Bird" never gets his due. I would have liked to see someone hit him or have him stand trial, but since this is real life and not a novel, I can't blame the author for that. One thing I really liked, and which didn't truly register as "great" until the very end of the book- the author doesn't just drop Louie's raft mate Phil (Allen). Before they crash, Phil is given a short biography, during the days adrift at sea, he is focused on as well, and at the POW camps, the author occasionally touches back to his experience as well, though obviously not to the extent she focuses on Louie. In the Epilogue, Phil is described as being treated as a "footnote" to Louie's story- everyone focuses on Louie's plight, but Phil endured the same. So to have the author treat him as more than a "footnote" was a great part of the book, but something I didn't realize until I read the epilogue. I think everyone should read this book. It should be required reading.
