The second entry in Richelle Mead's Vampire Academy series, Frostbite tests Rose's commitment to protecting Lissa and her secret while she struggles with her own feelings for her mentor, Dimitri. A young adult paranormal romance, the book has elements of dark and urban fantasy. When Rose and Dimitri discover the remains of an attack on a prominent Moroi family and evidence that the Strigoi are working with humans, life at St. Vladimir's Academy becomes more complicated for Rose, Lissa, and the rest of the Moroi vampires. Mead skillfully weaves a tale about accepting responsibility and different kinds of love in Frostbite. As parents flock to St. Vladimir's, concerned by the Strigoi threat, Rose is vexed by the arrival of her mother, whom she has more in common with than she'd like. It doesn't help that one of the Moroi has her sights set on making Dimitri her Guardian. Rose struggles with her impulsiveness, which leads her and her friends into danger. Meanwhile, Lissa may be pushing the limits of her powers. Frostbite raises the stakes, while it raises questions about the capabilities of both Rose and Lissa.
