Ehh. I feel like if I haven’t already watched the show, I really would have been lost- even though the show is so much different than the book. Definitely not a fan of the instalove, at least the show made things a little more realistic to say the least. The writing was not very detailed and did not make the story flow at all in my opinion. Definitely disappointed in the book

I love ittt. I really wish the show was more like this. I would love it if made this into a movie. It’s fantastic read.

Amazing!!!!. This book is really amazing!!!!! I love it!!!!

i<3damon. Way better than Twilight!! The concept of 2 super hot brothers fighting over 1 girl is good!

I read the books waaaaaay back when.... I read these books when I was about 15 and that was quite a while ago but long before the tv series came out. I definitely enjoyed them when I was a youngster and also like to admit that I appreciate how much more mature characters are in the current television series. I enjoy watching Carolyn grown, Bonnie's awesome powers, and the fact that Elena is much more grown-up in this series. For the time, these books centered around people and they seemed to fit the decade better... the '90s. Other than that, the books are still good, just not as good as the tv series for the day and age, I think. I haven' t read any of the return series yet but I'm kind of hoping it's a little closer to the tv series in that the characters are a little more grown-up. Other than that, these books have always been among my favorite books as a teen and always hold a special place in my heart! Some of her other series were great too. I very much enjoyed Secret Circle and was disappointed at how terrible the tv series was. Hopefully, if she comes out with any of the other books with tv series they'll be better. The Forbidden Games was a good series as was her Dark Visions series (mine and my mother's favorites!)

Good... but the tv show is better. This book was a great read, in fact I read it in a day! The book and the tv show are extremely different as almost all characters descriptions are different and plot lines are all scrambled. The first four books are definitely the best and I have to say one of the book made me cry my eyes out, i think it was the third. Highly recommend reading the first four books at least, books 5 and 6 are definitely not as good but still worth the read to finish the plot.

Awesome. I originally watched the show and fell in love with the characters but I think the books are even better! And it's different so it's like a whole new story to me!

Great. Great book! I really enjoyed it a lot. Look forward to reading the next book!

Why the price change?. This used to be $1.99. Kind of a rip off if u buy it now, isn't it? Love the tv show, i read the beginning of this and it seems pretty good

good to ok. I read this book after I had watched the tv show, so maybe that's why I had so much problems with it. for the first chapter or two I was actually wondering where some of the characters where, but then I learned the show changed them so I got over it. I think I would have loved the book if I hadn't have watched the shows first, but because I did I think I was a little bored...but other then that it was a good read.

Can’t be compared. I have been a big fan of the TV series, but, after finishing reading the books, it’s difficult to compare the two. All of the characters are much different between the two; almost like different people. I liked the writing and the overall plot. However, the books were rather short for my taste. I felt like the show was able to provide me with more substance that I felt the books lacked. I liked the character’s personalities in the books better. I was hesitant on devoting my time to the books due to the fear of already knowing what will happen. But the two vary so much, I was able to be thoroughly entertained. If you liked the series, you should like the books as well.

Coolio. OMG it's like the best series ever!

the vampire diaries. great book

Idioma. Alguien sabe si este libro está en español?

Bought the first 4 books only made it to the 2nd. No words on this earth could explain how bad this book is.

Vampire Diaries Review. I just finished reading the Awakening and it is one of my favorite books. I am a voracious reader who has a thing for vampire novels. L.J. is an amazing author and the characters are very strong. The books are very different from the T.V. Show but I suggest reading them first to get the original point of view. The order that the books come in is in the back of the first book "The Awakening". Enjoy an amazing book for an amazing price.

Best book series ever(:. My best friend Angela had gotten me hooked and I couldn't stop reading! It doesn't even compare to twilight! I highly recommend it to any one who likes drama and love conflicts(:

Seriously?. Gay!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Help. I would like to read this series but I don't know what order the books go in could someone tell me please.

Amazing Book. I'm so loving this book and I'm going on to the next.... Definite read for all!

Interesting book. Just confusing, cause i watched the show first, so its kinds weird, i just wish they would of done the show just how the book says

WOW!. This book is awesome. I wish I had more of them! It's a great book for teenagers. I like this story line waaay better then twilight series!

I am in LOVE with this book!!!. I love this book!!! The romance is AMAZING in these books(read all of them) and the suspense,characters,fantasy is beyond awesome!!! 💗❤️💗 Damon!!!! I love the the tv show as well. They may be VERY different from each other but I still think both is amazing!!! I would defiantly recommend the books and show!!!!😍😍💗😍😍

wow this is amazing, but not as good as the t.v.. the book is good and all, but i prefer the t.v. show.

Differences. Yes there are alot of differences between the tv series and the books,but they're both really good. Also Damon is hot in both! Stephan too! And personally I like elana WAY better with brunette hair,blonde hair just doesn't go with the name elana. Can't wait till January 27 or 28? Oh well it's on Thursday, the tv series comes back on with new shows!!!!!:D

love it. absolutly love this series!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! better than twilight

RIVETING.. I’ve read this book time and time again, and this time was just as good as the last. In love with everything about it. One small recommendation— ditch the show covers. The original book covers have much better taste and aesthetic.

The truth. She does not like brothers only Stephen so she does not have to chose she hates Damon the book lies I do like it

Its okay. The show was 100% better.

Good. There good i can tell that because i read the first 3 books in like 7 hours and today i'm going back for the next 3 but i am still a twiligher at heart:D

Absolutely loved this book... This author has a gift for spinning a tail... the read was so good by the last page I couldn’t believe the first novel of the series was over and had me captivated and wishing I had the next book readily available to dive into.. highly recommend...

Vampire diaries. I’m reading this at school online!😂

Best book ever. I loved this series so much!!! It's even better than the tv show!!!

Yesss. I love the books and shows!!!! They are so good definitely recommended ❤️❤️❤️❤️☺️☺️☺️😁😁

Great book. I think this is a great book for teenagers. L.J Smith really does know how to have my heart

Amazing. I loved it I couldn't put it down I read the book in two days and I don't even like reading!!

Love!!. I've read them all (some of them more than once). I liked Twilight before i read the series but reading The Vampire Diaries has shown me how weak Bella and Edward are. The order is: The Awakening, The Struggle, The Fury, Dark Reunion, Nightfall, Shadow Souls. This Series will get you HOOKED!!! I also love the show even though it doesn't completely follow the books. I just look at it as more stories of my favorite love triangle. Read these books! You won't be sorry!!

Childish writing. I don’t usually have a complaint about books but this reads like a 15 year old wrote it or like baby’s first chapter book. It jumps around a lot and leaves so much to be desired in the details.

It's ok. I got into the television series The Vampire Diaries so I wanted to read the books especially the beginning when Damon and Stephan were turned. I liked Stephan's Diaries and the ones that followed. Then I started reading the ones that paralleled the tv series. I thought they were ok but they contradicted the tv series and Stephan's Diaries. Minor stuff like Elana's hair color, her friends, and that in the book she has a little sister and the show she has a brother. These things I can overlook, but then the whole story of the beginings of Damon, Stephan, and Katherine was completely opposite of Stephan's Diaries! Seriously the books at least have to stay in order!

Best!!!!. I am in the middle of the first book and it is amazing!!! I know that the tv show and the books are different but they are both spectacular! I love how it's two vampires fighting over a human! I have watched all of the Vampire diaries episodes and I recommend them highly!!:)

Great Book. This book was so intense and upbeating...It’s a great read if u watched the Tv series on netflic

Sooooo good. This book had so many turns in events and it’s is super different that the tv show but that’s what makes it good because if you’ve seen the show you don’t know what’s going to happen in the book I love the tv show and the books so much I highly recommend the tv show and the books 😁

Love this book. I read it so fast because I couldn’t stop reading it!!!! (I hate reading)

Question. Is there such a thing as whipping in this book? And if so what is it? I am writing a story about vampires and I've made a character called Stefan (I've never read the vampire diaries) and I'm thinking about adding this cool thing called whipping where you can just appear wherever you want and I told this to my friend, who I don't think has read the Vampire Diaries, and she said that there was such a thing but she won't tell me what it is and I don't have enough to buy the book. Can someone who HAS read the series please tell me. Thanks! 😊

Awesome book!!!. To anyone who's thinking of buying this book, yes please do!!!every page is a brilliant page and u will never be disappointed!

If you thought Teilight was bad…. Elena is a revolting character! She is so entitled, shallow and self absorbed. Her romance with Stephan is just so cliched. This book wouldn’t be too bad, if Elena were even slightly likeable. She isn’t. Save yourself the money.

Vampire diaries. I think this is such a cool book!!!

THE BEST!!!. I just finished the first book and it’s amazing I’m telling everyone about it and they are loving. Recommended for mature ages.

Utter rubbish. Don't waste your money or your time.

Brilliant. I recommend everyone to read this astonishing book. I just can't stop reading it. I hope everybody enjoys reading it as much as I do.

Love it!. After reading the latest books in the series; while waiting for the next one to come out I decides to go back ad read the older ones such as this, and it kinda disappointed me that she chose Stefan, although I am a total Stelena, I was sorta disappointed!! The rest are totally worth reading!! If you liked this book, I strongly recommend the rest in the series

Amazing. Best book everrrr If u like it u should watch the tv show Its rly good

Love it. I can’t get it cause I don’t have apple money but I have seen the season over 1000 times and the book is supposed to have more detail so I’m exited to read it when I get some moula

Umm ya amazing is all i got to say.... I loved the book and i live the tv show i rewatched it like almost 6 or 7 times bow i really recomend the originals too its the same but with rhe original vamps only!
