Read The Vampire Diaries - Awakening - online

I'm reading and reviewing the first four in L J Smith's Vampire Diaries series, prior to its tv appearance next year (in the UK).

News come via twitter that you can now read the first book, The Awakening, online at the HarperTeen site.

My thoughts on The Awakening can be found here.

  2. Yes that is true, however the series is "LOOSLY" based on the book, eg the main characters are there, however things are changed in the plot, but its still worth watching. THe books are awesome, but after reading the fifth one i started getting bored with it cos its the same plot.....

  3. What about Jeremy? In the book, Elena only has Margeret.

  4. The books are really good, but the TV series is really good too. I think it's better if you try not to compare them, since, as someone previously said, the show IS only loosely based on the books.

  5. I think the books were way better. They really should have made her more like the Elena in the book.

    1. No I dont agree. The series is much much better than the book. And the characters have more depth. The reason why they are bad is also explained in the series.

    2. i don't agree. The series is much much better than the book. All the characters are better in the series. Especially Elena's, Damon's & Bonnie's character.And also Klaus's. Every characters have depths and it is well explained why the villains are bad. Which makes me wanna like the villains too.

  6. I dont care I just love the show and the book. Well yeah shes blond hair in the book and brown haired in the show but thats called "Bussiness" People have to change things. Because someone might think Nina Dobrev is best for the show. Even though she doesnt have blond hair. Any maybe instead of using margaret they use Jeremy. Its just peoples jobs to do that. Understand?
