Vampire Academy is about two best friends, Lissa and Rose, coming back to a vampire academy after mysteriously escaping 2 years ago for unknown reasons. This novel has some mystery, romance (?), and a hell of a lot of high school drama. It did not take a lot of brain cells to complete this book. I have one major issue with this novel, which will explain my question mark earlier. There is pedophilia here and it is romanticized, which I do not think is okay. I don't care how either of the parties feel about each other, there is no excuse for this. Any disparity in power is something I cannot stand for, and mind you this book had many of them. I'm trying not to give anything away here so I'll keep it brief. The premises of this novel is compelling, it has a unique paranormal system and at the end of the day, it ends with Lissa and Rose navigating their friendship. I think the pedophilia pretty much ruined it for me which warranted the 2 stars.

Dramatic battles, tense political intrigue, unique world building...and is that maybe some romance I'm sensing? These books are not Romantasy but focus primarily on the SFF elements. Romance is a subplot and may not appear until later in the series, but when it does, you won't be disappointed.

A collection of the pilot books for popular series, for those of us who love to follow a character's journey for as long as an author will let us! Some of the below series have heavily debated starting points and book read orders--in those cases the pilot was selected based on what seems to be the most popular approach.
