All you guys, sinking your teeth in Twilight, you're missing such a good book, such a 'vampirish' book. It's not that I hate Twilight, but Bella is a tantrum-throwing, easily-breakdown princess. I didn't like her as much as I should. After living with Vampires, you got to be at least mentally strong, right? Now, let me tell what becomes of a half-human, half-vampire girl who stays with good vampires and fight the bad ones.She becomes a good badass. 
 "Dimitri: "She might be wild and disrespectful, but if she has potential--" 
 Rose: "Wild and disrespecful? Who the hell are you anyway? Oursourced help?" 
 Kirova: "Guardian Belikov is the Princess Lissa's guardian now, her sanctioned guardian." 
 Rose: "You got cheap foreign labor to protect Lissa?" 
 Uncontrolled speech with no fear of what others think. 
 "Lissa and I had been friends ever since kindergarten, when our teacher had paired us up together for writing lessons. Forcing five-year-olds to spell Vasilisa Dragomir and Rosemarie Hathaway was beyond cruel, and we'd--or rather, I'd--responded appropriately. I'd chucked my book at out teacher and called her a fascist bastard. I hadn't known what those words meant, but I'd known how to hit a moving target. 
 Lissa and I had been inseparable ever since." 
 A person who does anything to protect her loved one. 
 "Come on, Hathaway," he said, taking my arm. "You can be my partner. Let's see what you've been doing all this time." 
 An hour later, he had his answer. 
 "Not practicing, huh?" 
 "Ow," I groaned, momentarily incapable of normal speech. 
 He extended a hand and helped me up from the mat he'd knocked me down on--about fifty times. 
 "I hate you," I told him, rubbing a spot on my thigh that was going to have a wicked bruise tomorrow. 
 "You'd hate me more if I held back." 
 "Yeah, that's true," I agreed, staggering along as the class put the equipment back. 
 "You actually did okay." 
 "What? I just had my ass handed to me." 
 "Well, of course you did. It's been two years. But hey, you're still walking. That's something." He grinned mockingly. 
 "Did I mention I hate you?" 
 Mocking the person you love. 
 And Amazing fighting skills. 
 That's total badass. 
 Now other characters. 
 Dimitri! I love him, you may also love him, drool over him, dream about him, but that's the limit, only dream about him. I have to copyright to have him and if you want to take him away from me, then..*gives a wicked smile*.. 
 Hmm, so it's better to keep your dreams to yourself, Dimitri is mine! Mine! 
 Now I am acting like a psych, OK let me recover from it. 
 Ok, other main character: Lissa Dragomir,she is the last royal Dragomir princess, and has some really really special and unique power. Spirit. 
 The bad- guy wants her for him, so that she can cure her. Hey! I am not going to tell the ending, it's the best part. 
 The story, well you might be thinking what if it is like other vampire books, then I 100% guarantee you that it's not. The plot is different and A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. I did like it very much. 
 Read it if you really want a strong heroine in your life. Otherwise Strigoi (the bad vampires) will come stalking you. 
 Happy reading!
