Bonnie is a redhead, there is no Jeremy. Caroline is the reasonable one of the group and Matt is actually a dick.
This was such a trip to read for the first time after having watched the very iconic tv show so many times.
It really did drag me back to vampire books from the 2000's and there is nothing you can say to me that will convince me Stephanie Meyer did not copy LJ Smith.
She did.
I read this out of sheer curiosity and it was definitely a hilarious nostalgia trip. The writing wasn't bad at all. I am pretty sure if 13 year old me had picked up these books I would have been OBSESSED! LJ Smith has a very incredible urban fantasy voice and I think she deserves the credit.
In this day and age though? Not worth the read. I am no longer 13 and we have way better urban fantasies out there now. I rather re-watch the show for the billionth time. One of the very rare cases where the show is better than the books.
I AM THE FREAKING MOONSTONE
RIPPERRRRRR
HELLO BROTHER
JEREMY NOOOOOOOOO
C'mon, that cast and that entire dumb show is so good. LMAO
Don't waste your time on the books.
The moon had not yet risen, and she could just make out the old graveyard and Wickery Bridge beyond it. The old graveyard dated from Civil War days, and many of the headstones bore the names of soldiers. It had a wild look to it; brambles and tall weeds grew on the graves, and ivy vines swarmed over crumbling granite. Elena had never liked it. 鈥淚t looks different, doesn鈥檛 it? In the dark, I mean,鈥� she said unsteadily. She didn鈥檛 know how to say what she really meant, that it was not a place for the living.
Evil will never find peace. It may triumph, but it will never find peace.
