The second installation in the wildly popular Vampire Academy series will hardly disappoint. It contains the usual amounts of good writing, enthralling world-building, and tortured love triangles that I have come to love about Richelle's books.
What struck me most was Richelle Mead's absolute confidence with Rose's voice. For all her faults, doubts, and mistakes, Rose is an impeccable narrator, able to give us all the information we need and engage our full attention at the same time. Richelle mixes an ideal blend of backstory and current action so that readers are never at a loss for what's going on and why certain events are so dire.
FROSTBITE delivers in terms of romantic passion as well. You really can't have a bestselling series without some unforgettable romances, which is why the tensions between Rose, Dimitri, and Mason are so exciting to read about. The introduction and/or further development of other characters suggest possibilities of other match-ups in future installations, so I'm really looking forward to that.
The Vampire Academy series is probably the best that I can recommend out of all the latest books in YA paranormal fiction. If you enjoy engrossing writing, intrigue, and romances that make you sigh for their hopelessness, you need to read this series!
