Review of Vampire Academy (2014) by Roxy C — 24 Jan 2016

If you've never read the book it might be... okay... just.

But as a book adaptation it is abysmal.

None of the characters look anything like they come across in the books - especially Dimitri. The tension and heat between him and Rose is lacking. And the story itself... its like they smashed together all 6 books and pooped out a poor substitute that doesn't even resemble the original story. Not to mention the fact that at least one of my favourite characters from the series was missing altogether. Ugh.

If you are going to go so far away from what the books were, just name it something else and don't pretend that its adapted from the series at all. I could not recognise any of the elements that made the book series so fantastic. Utterly disappointing.
