Review *minor spoilers*:
Wow, these last books in the series were very amazing! There were so many mind blowing twists that I never saw coming. I loved all the action, drama, romance, and new paranormal creatures. I wasn't expecting that Elena would become a vampire or that Katherine would back for some major revenge on Stefan and Damon. The ending of the third was really unexpected, but I'll leave that for you read about. Altogether, I liked the second two more than the first two because there was a lot more action, more of the love triangle, and more unexpected events.
I was really glad both books were together, so I could keep reading after the third one again left off with another cliffhanger. The series is really good, and I highly recommend reading them! The new CW series is pretty good also, but several things are different from the books. I can't wait to read the next books in the trilogy, Nightfall, where Elena and the other characters are back.

ReplyDeleteI haven't started this series, and I just noticed L.J. Smith is the author. I am so oblivious to somethings sometimes. Now I'll have to read it! Great review :)
ReplyDeleteLJ Smith is awesome. I'm so happy for her that this book was turned into a series on the CW. So cool.
ReplyDeleteThis show is addictive,I Watch Vampire Diaries Online When I first started watching it seemed ok, but unlike most TV shows, EVERY episode without fail seems to improve on the previous episode, lots of twists and turns, great performances from all the cast, It's gripping and the storylines are brilliant. It's also not just a show for the teenage audience, My mother loves it! I genuinely think this is my fave TV show ever already, it also helps that every member of the cast is absolutely beautiful. Love it!
