Collected here in one volume for the first time, volumes one and two of The Vampire Diaries, the tale of two vampire brothers and the beautiful girl torn between them."

Notes:
Man, this is so awful. But it was really easy to read so I just kept reading it. Like reading a bad fanfiction, especially after watching the show. Don't get me wrong, the show is terrible, but pretty sure the books are worse. It's likely at some point I will end up reading some of the other ones just because they're so angsty and ridiculous and I can read them really dramatically, but goodness are they bad.
Sorry L. J. Smith. This is just like everything I hate about YA books wrapped up into one teenage stereotypical mess.
