The Vampire Diaries: The Awakening and the Struggle by L.J. Smith

4.0

I was very excited to read this book at first after watching most of the tv show. Honestly I didn't know what to expect, actually I did. I was hoping that it would be very much like the show. With all of the same problems and characters and showing everyone's lives. It was probably my fault for watching the show before reading this book, I probably would have liked it more than I had hoped. But... on a nicer look this book made me love Stefan even more than I did in the TV show. In the TV show everyone is basically rooting for Damon and Elena, but oh how I loved Stefan's character in the book, that's honestly what made me love the book so much. Who wouldn't want an epic love like Stefan Salvatore? I know I would not turn down him. In the end I did enjoy this book and how it was written in every ones view it made you see what you needed to see and left you hanging. I will definitely be reading the other books to the series, I absolutely recommend this book.
