I love vampire books and this is not let down, I have to warn you that if you have seen the tv show , the book is very different the characters are discribed differently and the book has some different characters to the tv show.
But the book is well written and that put together with the characters who are real and believable. The chapters are quite long so there is a lot to say about what happens, first of all Elena comes back from France where she has spent the summer after her parents died in a tragic car accident. Elena is the queen of school every girl wants to be her and every boy wants to be with her. Every boy except the new boy Stefan Salvator which makes Elena need to get to know this boy who just hasn't noticed her. Of course there is a reason that Stefan is being stand offish Elena reminds him of his ex Katherine, the girl who broke his heart, the girl who changed him completly, the girl who turned him from mortal to immortal.
I do truly love this book it is so well written and brilliantly thought through, there is so much feeling in the story, you can feel Elena's feelings towards Stefan and Stefan's feelings towards Elena. Also it has a great way of creating tension and suspense, my favourite example of this is when after a bad attempt of talking to Stefan, Elena runs to parents grave to cry have a release. Her friends Bonnie and Meredith come to find her, they make plan b regarding Stefan and chat away until it gets dark, the girls walk back through woods towards home, feeling nervous and tense Bonnie stops a different voice comes from her as she stares into the distance and announces "Elena someone is waiting in the shadows for you" terrified the girls run in fear they are being followed, once across the bridge they know they are safe.
Its such a great ending to the chapter I loved it, for a it to end that way especially has the first few chapters was about Elena's self loving and Stefan's battle with his animal instincts.
