wildphoenix22 's review for:

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

2.0

For once I think the the screen interpretation trumps the book. My sister got me this book for Christmas because I love the TV series and I must say they are nothing alike! It was interesting discovering the differences and I welcomed them, but the writing and tone of the book was a little too immature for me. I found Elena annoying in the book and there just seemed to be a lack of depth in the character. However, I intend to read the next book of this series eventually because it's on my bookshelf.
