So many people talk about Twilight and miss this super great book......
I liked Twilight, but I had a hard time dealing with Bella. I thought she was just too...girly for some having with vampires. I wanted someone that could stand with them in a fight and not cower behind....Enter Rose. She is the bodyguard to Lissa, a vampire princess that must attend school and keep out of the clutches of the dark side. Rose is aggressive and hard headed, sometimes risking Lissa while trying to prove she is strong, but all the while terrified to let anyone else in.
To make her stronger, her elders bring in the hot and ever so delicious Dimitri and with fists and kicks a flying, Rose's world gets a might more interesting.
This is one killer book for anyone who loves Vampires and is looking for a good young adult book. I strongly urge anyone, not just teens to pick it up because once you start it, you won't put it down or the second and third. LOL!!
So get past Edward and Bella, not that I don't love them, and sink your teeth into Rose and Lissa's often dangerous lives.

I can't really see kristen as rose and i don't know who gaspard ulliel is :s But I know that alot of people want sophia bush to play rose wich is quite crazy since she played a 17 year old character like 6 years ago. HELLO SHES TOO OOOOLD!!
Lol

I soo agree, i don't like the twilight movies very muc, but I belive that stephenie meyer don't care since its given her alot of publicity and fans.(and money)

I disagree in a way your right but in a another way your not, because if he wasn't 7 years older then Rose how will they have done all those missions,and every thing.

(I like books like: The Mortal Instruments, The Hunger Games, the fault in our stars, divergent ect.. )
Bella and Edward are a great couple, I personally prefer bella to rose, but that's me, and this is you, I guess

PS the movie was OK, but looked like trash compared to the book.

Now I'm planning to read this book.
I've finished the Twilight series and I loved it.
I loved it so much that I JUST CAN NOT GET OVER IT
(Acc. to me Edward and Bella are the best couple ever!! ♥️)
So...thanks for this suggestion as I really read a little more Vampire drama in my life 😀😀
