First I'll admit to a little bit of cheating: I hadn't read the Vampire Academy books and I really wasn't planning on reading them but the movie looked good so I decided to rent it. It was snarky and fun and I loved it so I decided to read the series, only I had just watched the movie and I kind of wanted to skip over what I knew and jump right in. Which I did, and while I'm still feeling a little guilty for making that choice, I'm also glad because I really enjoyed Frostbite! 
 I love the world that Mead created and I love how snarky Rose is. In Frostbite we learn a little more about the world that they live in and also the battle between the Strogoi and Moroi. One of my favorite parts of Frostbite is discovering the relationship between Rose and her mother. There is a lot of animosity there and this is the first time in a long time that they are in the same place. Also new guy, Adrian, appears. Since this series has been around for a while I knew there was a love triangle and I am curious to see what choice Rose makes. I usually end up liking the first guy better (in this case Dimitri) but Adrian has me quite curious.
