The people on the cover of frostbite are rose and the strigoi Isaiah, because of the red in his eyes.

I think lindsay is right about frostbite becaause I read something about that on richelle mead’s blog [about christian being the guy on the cover]. But I think it would be cool either way. if that is christian though he looks Kinda good!!!

it can’t be rose fr frostbite because she doensn’t have blonde hair and i think the guy is adrian

On the cover of Frostbite the girl is Rose and the guy has to be a strigoi because of his red eyes.. i dont kno which one yet because i havn’t gotten that far in the book.
and in Shadow Kiss is the guy really Dimitri? because shouldn’t he have longer hair that he puts in a ponytail at the back of his neck? correct me if im wrong..

Vampire Academy: Richelle said that on that cover is supposed to be rose but its not how she pictured her.
Frostbite: She also said that it is rose and that the guy is isaiah because of his red eyes. but the guy on the cover wasn’t how she pictured isaiah and he looked more like how she pictured Christian. But its Isaiah.
Shadow kiss: It is Roses point of view. So it is Lissa and Demitri. Richelle also said that the Dimitri on that cover wasnt how she pictured him. She pictured him hotter and with long hair. It doesnt mean he cut his hair.
I got all of this from her blog.

I think the girl in Vampire acadamy is Rose. The guy in Frostbite is strigoi,and rose is with him. The girl in Shadow Kiss is Lissa and the guy is Adrian.

on the frostbite cover, *rose* doesn’t look right.. she looks way to old for her characer (not saying the model person is old or anything) but she should look more like she did on the first cover..
demetri is everything i thought (the shadow kiss cover) he should look like :] yummy
im excited lol
Jonelle // 17 August 2008 at 10:35 PM
the frostbite cover is strange. Strigoi Isaiah makes sense but that girl being rose doesn’t really. She looks alittle too old. and her hair is all wrong. I kinda thought that might even be her mom. But the hair would still not make sense. Her hair if you notice, is short. So maybe her mom?? what do you think?

I think the guy on frosbite is Isaiah because his red eyes. and I think that the guy one shadow kiss is not Dimitri cause in the book she says that he has long hair and is more butch. and if that’s lissa then I’d say it’s ok in a wierd way.

I’m sure it’s Rose on The Vampire Academy. I also think it’s Angelina Jolie. On Fostbite, it’s Dimitri and Lissa, but it could be Mia. And on Shadowkiss, it’s Dimitri and Lissa. I can’t wait for the 3rd book. I’ve been drooling on the 2nd book.

I think Vampire Academy is possibly rose.. reminds me a LOT of the actress Danneel Harris, One tree hill, anyone agree?
Frostbite.. i think isaiah cos he has RED eyes, and possibly rose.. she’s wearing a necklace kinda reminds me of the diamond rose!
Shadow kiss? don’t even get me started! But i’ll just say Lissa and poss dimitri.. although the guy looks awfully similar to the one on the Frostbite Cover
Anyway enough of my usual waffling on..
reeses // 9 November 2008 at 7:29 PM
ok vampire academy was rose, frostbite it had to be isaiah and I think it was Mia, and on Shadow Kiss I think its Christian and Lissa
shelby marie // 15 November 2008 at 1:34 AM
wow…WOW…DIMITRI?! On the Shadow Kiss cover?! No…not possible…not at all.
VA- Rose
FB- Rose and Christian; yes he has red eyes like a Strigoi but Isaiah was an old Strigoi
SK- Lissa and Eddie…Definetly NOT Dimitri…Eddie doesn’t play a very big part but he still had some semblance.
wow // 17 November 2008 at 5:12 PM
okay just to clear things up, Rose is on the cover of vampire academy. Frostbite is probably Isaiah and Rose’s mom . and on shadow kiss im pretty sure its Lissa and Dimitri
Claudia // 17 November 2008 at 6:59 PM
Vampire Academy= obviously Rose
Frostbite= I completely think that the Rose on Frostbite looks old and different from the first cover, but its something. On the cover, it is Rose and Isaiah because of his red eyes and how Rose looks serious
Shadow Kiss= It is Lissa and i think Christian because on the top it said if you would choose ur best friend or the person u love the most and lissa and christian love each other very much.
Claudia // 17 November 2008 at 7:05 PM
O and i forgot to add that on Shadow Kiss and Frostbite, it cannot be Adrian because Adrian is described as having green eyes. Still… i loved all the covers and it was fun trying to figure out who the people were on the cover. if u go to richelle mead’s website, it shows that a 4th one will come out and possibly a 5th. i cant wait!!!!!!!! i hope they make a movie out of these books one day.
Linda // 19 November 2008 at 1:39 AM
on frostbite it’s suppose to be rose I believe (although I doubt it that’d be wierd casue rose isn’t a blonde and they had a diff chick on the first book..shrug) and that definitely is not Christian that’s suppose to be The strigoi Isaiah
tash // 24 November 2008 at 12:23 PM
can anyone tell me who the models are on the cover? the characters are lissa and demetri, but i just wanna know what the hot dude is!
alessandra // 29 December 2008 at 11:10 PM
i think its rose and christian but at the end it kind of makes look like christian its turn to a strigio so maybe it was meant to be tricky.
Claudia // 4 January 2009 at 10:21 PM
the fourth vampire academy book will come out JULY 2009 and its called BLOOD PROMISE!!!! i am so excited
tam // 9 January 2009 at 9:04 PM
Vampire Academy – Rose
Frostbite – The girl is Rose, and the guy is a mystery even to me. Without the red eyes, he’d be Christian.
Shadow Kiss – Lissa and Dimitri
alzena // 11 January 2009 at 1:42 AM
in vampire academy the pic is rose.
in frostbite da pic of the girl is rose and da boy is isaiah because in the book rose kills a strigoi for the first time in her life.
in shadow kiss the girl is lissa and the boy is dimitri because in the front cover of the book it says somrthing about rose picking between the 2 people she loves most.
this is what i think
yuki // 12 January 2009 at 2:08 PM
what is dimitri’s real name!! i want to know?!!!
alzena // 15 January 2009 at 7:57 PM
yeh i really want to know to. i actually want to know all of the peoples real names that are on the covers, but i can’t seem to find any website that tells me what their real names are
J.J // 26 January 2009 at 4:19 AM
Vampire Academy- Rose
Frostbite- Lissa and Isiah
Shadow Kiss- I think its Dimitri and Lissa

amber // 2 March 2009 at 11:17 PM
ok it’s clear that on the first book that ist rose.cause it say “a dark and compelling world!rose is sassy dangerous-my kind of girl.”
but on frost bite no one cann really say because the two people look nothing like anyone in the book! and on shadow kiss its lissa and dimitri because it say “if u had to pick bewteen ur best friend(lissa) or the one u love (dimitri [ only if it's at rose point of view] i havent read it yet im tryin to get it some where cheap)
nicole // 20 March 2009 at 5:52 PM
VA=ROSE UHH DA FB=ROSE(maybe lissa)AND ISAIAH THE STROGI GUY SK=LISSA AND DIMITRI DA !!!!!!!
kami // 31 March 2009 at 7:14 PM
VA ROSE
FB MIA and ISAIAH (the girl is blonde w/short hair but obviously not lissa)
SK LISSA and DIMITRI (the eyes give lissa away and i wish the guy was adrian but richele stresses adrians green eyes and thoes eyes are most definately not emerald green)
Karrie Ingalaz // 7 April 2009 at 5:27 PM
Why is it Dimitri & LISA on the cover of Shadow Kiss? And why isn’t it Lisa & Christan on Shadow kiss on either one & then Rose & Dimitri on the other?
Karrie Ingalaz // 7 April 2009 at 5:32 PM
I can’t read Shadow Kiss yet> : ( I can’t find a place to read it online. I’m trying to find a cheap place. I can’t wait 4 Blood Promise, the 4th book of VA.
