From The Journal of Vasilisa Dragomir
Straight from the pages of Lissa’s journal, this short chronicles Lissa and Rose’s early days on the run and will feature an iconic moment mentioned in the original series.
What you need to know: Written journal style, this story starts just after the accident and follows almost a year of "on the run"

What you want to know: Rose puts ketchup on a taco in this one

There's actually a small contingent of fans obsessed with Rose mentioning ketchup on tacos in VA #4. Even her creator thinks that's gross.

The Meeting
You’ve already seen Rose and Dimitri’s first meeting– when he finds Rose and Lissa on the run and must take them back to St. Vladimir’s– from Rose’s perspective. Now you’ll get to see it from Dimitri’s point-of-view.
Hello, My Name is Rose Hathaway
This story takes place just after Vampire Academy #1 and features a little bit of wild competition between the students at St. Vladimir’s. It involves causing some chaos for the instructors, and Rose has one particular target in mind!
Quote: "If Dimitri needed a volunteer to be lassoed or handcuffed or whatever it was swanky lawmen did, I’d be the first to step up."

Why you'll read it: because someone has to raid Dimitri's stuff, and only one girl is up to that challenge. What could possibly go wrong?
