One of the very few times that the book is not as good as the show. Two books in and I still feel like Elena is a flat character. Blah.This omnibus carries the first two books of Smith's tetralogy - "The Awakening" and "The Struggle". I would give the first one two stars, the second one four. The first one was namely too much of a sugary teenage romance - I'm probably too old to read young adult stuff anymore.There were some things that really annoyed me in these books: Elena was perfection incarnated, the prototype of a Mary-Sue, she had everybody wrapped around her little finger, she always got what she wanted (be it the
Find all of my reviews at: http://52bookminimum.blogspot.com/I actually read The Fury and Dark Reunion as some all-for-one-price box set thing from Barnes & Noble, but Im too stupid to find the set I actually read, so Im only posting a review (if you can even call it that) for the first two.Heres what you should do with these books: (1) Dont waste your time reading them they are pretty much terrible;(2) Okay, you ignored my advice and are going to read them anyway? Thats cool. Read them
I humbly admit that when I had first picked up this book, it was after all the Twilight/Vampire buzz - though personally Harry Potter trumps vampire - I had it in my mind that it was going to be just like Twilight a sappy romance that I adore. Seeing as how in my life romance is moot reading about other people, fictional or not, is the only substitute I seem to have. Much like everything else in my life, I turn to the books, to get my excitement and I mean the excitement where your body
Usually I can't resist these YA supernatural fiction series but Vampire Diaries is actually too wretched for me to enjoy and, oh man, that's saying something. Laughable prose, characters who are inconsistent at best and numbingly dull at worst, and a nonsensical plot cobbled together from various bits of mediocre films like some wrong Frankenstein. No, no, no!Okay, but, see, I might still watch the TV series. Just one episode to see whether it's as bad. Um. Right. Well. Onward.I actually saved
2 stars Vampire Romance/Young AdultAlthough the Vampire Diaries precedes Meyers Twilight Saga, its impossible not to compare the two series, and I have to say that I much prefer Twilight. This felt a little bit too much like a vamped out version of Mean Girls, and I didnt really get into the story or care about any of the characters at all. Theyre all so selfish, juvenile, and petty, and okay, I get that its a young adult series, but it felt really immature and teen angsty to me, waaay more so
Elena Gilbert is the golden girl who has fallen head over heels in love with Stefan, the only guy she wants. Stefan Salvatore, the guy with a past, will do anything to protect Elena, even if it means avoiding her. Damen Salvatore, the one who will do anything to possess Elena and take revenge against Stefan.Well, I know this is bad to say but when reading the back, it sounded more exciting than it actually was. I thought that I would enjoy this book so much because of all the hype the TV show
