1.0

I've tried to read this book twice and both times I've stopped at the exact same part and put it down.
I am in love with the show so I thought perhaps the books would be good. I was wrong. For one, I find the main character is not at all likeable, and that she and Stefan just fall in love right away and it is very anticlimatic. I don't find it interesting at all.
Then again, I have never finished the book (which is something I rarely do -- I always have to finish) so maybe my opinion is a little skewed. It might be one of those things where you need to read the whole story in order to truly, you know, "understand" or "grasp the concept." Who knows.
I stopped reading at the part where the little dog died both times, because I love animals and I get sad. However, if the book had interested me at all, I would have continued reading despite of that. I do understand that it's a fictional dog.
