I really liked the first book， but this was a snore-fest！ I fell asleep reading this countless times。 I am done with this series。

Oh no！ Daemon！ Whyyyyy？！So we finally have Stefan back with a convince and a heart and now we've lost Daemon instead！Was lovely to meet Lexi。 I remember her from the TV series so it was nice to see how they first met。 And poor Callie。。。Let's see where Stefan and Daemon's adventures take them next。 Oh no！ Daemon！ Whyyyyy？！So we finally have Stefan back with a convince and a heart and now we've lost Daemon instead！Was lovely to meet Lexi。 I remember her from the TV series so it was nice to see how they first met。 And poor Callie。。。Let's see where Stefan and Daemon's adventures take them next。 。。。more

Megan Lowde ，

This diverges somewhat from the show's plotline where Stefan and Damon are first turned into vampires， and definitely differs from the original book series' plot which had them turned in 15th century Italy。 I can't say I enjoyed this change of pace - the whole read was kind of boring and I never really got the appeal of Stefan as a character， unfortunately， which makes this a rather dull read。 This diverges somewhat from the show's plotline where Stefan and Damon are first turned into vampires， and definitely differs from the original book series' plot which had them turned in 15th century Italy。 I can't say I enjoyed this change of pace - the whole read was kind of boring and I never really got the appeal of Stefan as a character， unfortunately， which makes this a rather dull read。 。。。more

Vicky Ralph ，

Not overly impressed with this one， same as the first。Read because I bought them all in anticipation of enjoying them all but thoroughly disappointed

Holly ，

Just as good as the first book！ It gives so much extra detail that works alongside the netflix series that gives you extra insight into their lives。Now time to start the 3rd :）。

Kathryn Holden ，

2。5 stars。 Better than Origins， but still has issues。 I think the tv show better portrays ideas like “Power” but it is annoying to read everything constantly summed up with a capital p Power。 The writing off LJ Smith has never captivated me。 And had I read the books before watching the show， I probably wouldn’t have watched。 Kudos to the cast to bring such life to characters who often feel flat on the page。 Nice to see Lexi in this book， but again， I feel like there is such a disconnect between 2。5 stars。 Better than Origins， but still has issues。 I think the tv show better portrays ideas like “Power” but it is annoying to read everything constantly summed up with a capital p Power。 The writing off LJ Smith has never captivated me。 And had I read the books before watching the show， I probably wouldn’t have watched。 Kudos to the cast to bring such life to characters who often feel flat on the page。 Nice to see Lexi in this book， but again， I feel like there is such a disconnect between what was on screen on and the backstory in the books。 Not a fan of the books。 Debating whether or not to hunt down the 3rd in this series to read。 。。。more

3。5 starsI felt sorry for Damon in this， and Stefan was in 'ripper' mode。 Damon was always painted to be the killer of the two brothers， but Stefan is ruthless。 I guess that gets forgotten when he's all mopey and living on animal blood， but he really is awful at times。 3。5 starsI felt sorry for Damon in this， and Stefan was in 'ripper' mode。 Damon was always painted to be the killer of the two brothers， but Stefan is ruthless。 I guess that gets forgotten when he's all mopey and living on animal blood， but he really is awful at times。 。。。more

I really love reading about how Stefan and Damon became who they are in the tv series！

Rachel ，

These are fun！ If you enjoyed the tv show but didn't read the original series， then we are in the same boat。 I enjoyed the book and will keep going with this series。 Nice and short but fun to visit with the Salvatore Brothers again。 These are fun！ If you enjoyed the tv show but didn't read the original series， then we are in the same boat。 I enjoyed the book and will keep going with this series。 Nice and short but fun to visit with the Salvatore Brothers again。 。。。more

Goaran10additional ，

The book has a very good plot。From start to finish it makes you want to know more。

Kati ，

Pretty good。 It gives us an interesting insight into how Stefan and Damon became enemies， that it was Stefan who， basically， created the monster that Damon turned into。 Though Stefan's about-face came way too quickly for my liking。 One day he is a bloodthirsty monster， the next he's a-okay and the almost saint that we meet in the show？ Eh。 For that to work the author shouldn't have made him that cruel at the beginning of the book。 I mean， one stern admonishment by Lexi and he toes the line？ Like Pretty good。 It gives us an interesting insight into how Stefan and Damon became enemies， that it was Stefan who， basically， created the monster that Damon turned into。 Though Stefan's about-face came way too quickly for my liking。 One day he is a bloodthirsty monster， the next he's a-okay and the almost saint that we meet in the show？ Eh。 For that to work the author shouldn't have made him that cruel at the beginning of the book。 I mean， one stern admonishment by Lexi and he toes the line？ Like I said， eh。 。。。more

Velká nostalgie， ale。。。 četlo se to skvěle。 Boží oddechovka， pokud se chcete vrátit k bratrům Salvatorům。 Oproti Upířím deníkům daleko lepší， ať co se týče jazyka， tak i postav。 Stefana sice nemám ráda， ale jako hrdina mi tu přišel ok。 Oproti mému milovanému Damonovi。3。5/5*

Marie Ruth ，

I read it really fast and enjoyed it but I just know so many books that are just better so it only got 3 stars。

Dyllie ，

this is the book that really shows u how damon became damon。 i really liked this book。 again if u watched the show then u should read these books。

3。5 *I enjoyed reading this book and was really happy we got to see more of Lexi as we didn’t get to see much of her in the show。

Vampire Diaries show fans。 This book covers a time only hinted at in the show 。 The Period immediately following the boys turning and their flight from Mystic Falls。I very much enjoyed this because we are definitely outside the scope of the show for the most part。 The book introduces Lexi and details the anger Damon felt toward Stephan。 It isn't a long book and is a quick read。If you are looking for something that is historically accurate walk away and don;t look back（view spoiler）[ The author h Vampire Diaries show fans。 This book covers a time only hinted at in the show 。 The Period immediately following the boys turning and their flight from Mystic Falls。I very much enjoyed this because we are definitely outside the scope of the show for the most part。 The book introduces Lexi and details the anger Damon felt toward Stephan。 It isn't a long book and is a quick read。If you are looking for something that is historically accurate walk away and don;t look back（view spoiler）[ The author has Damon & Stephan jumping onto a train in Mystic Falls in October of 1864。 "By mid-1864， all passenger service in the Confederacy had come to a standstill" Turner， George E。 Victory Rode the Rails The Strategic Place of the Railroads in the Civil War （1953）。 And riding it to New Orleans。 "On May 1， 1862， Maj。 Gen。 Benjamin Butler， with an army of 5，000 men， occupied the city of New Orleans without resistance"The author has this train leaving VA and arriving in NOLA the next daybut "In the South， most lines were still quite primitive often using strap rail， namely a metal plate that was layed on top of a wooden "rail" cheap to make but lousy for speed， so slow speed were the flavor of the day， 15-20mph was likely tops on these lines。" http://cs。trains。com/trn/f/111/p/5102。。。 The distance from Richmond VA （since Mystic Falls is imaginary） to NOLA is 999 miles so even a fast train of the day would take 50 hours and that wouldn't include frequent stops。 Even today "Getting Amtrak fastest train from Norfolk， you probably arrive in about 36h 52m in New Orleans。"Once in NOLA they encounter a woman smoking a cigarette。 Women didn't smoke then， cigarettes were rare then， most people smoked pipes or cigars。 And toward the end Stephan sees Bicycle messengers。 Which is amazing because while the velocipede was invented in 1863 "the Lallement had left Paris in July 1865， crossed the Atlantic， settled in Connecticut and patented the velocipede， and the number of associated inventions and patents soared in the US。 The popularity of the machine grew on both sides of the Atlantic and by 1868–69 the velocipede craze was strong in rural areas as well。"Now you might think WOW are you a nit picker。 I am but I took a course on Civil War and Reconstruction。 （hide spoiler）] 。。。more

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 This second installment opens our eyes to how the brothers truly became to hate each other。 Being forced go fight one enother for sport then for one brother to kill the love of the other。 The friendship between stefan and lexi that we know will last for centuries behond this book。 The promise stefan makes to never drink human blood again and to keep moving around。 Love these books i cant wait to start the 3rd one。 Hearing the story from stefans prescriptive is much more enjoyable。

Rating: 3 1/2 stars。This was an okay book， really quick with short chapters。

Jessica Byrne ，

Twisted readI am truly enjoying this series。 It has given me a deeper understanding of the relationships that Stefan has developed along his journey。 It has also given me an outlook of Damon's anger and his desire to destroy his brother's happiness in all ways possible。 Twisted readI am truly enjoying this series。 It has given me a deeper understanding of the relationships that Stefan has developed along his journey。 It has also given me an outlook of Damon's anger and his desire to destroy his brother's happiness in all ways possible。 。。。more

Ashley ，

I really liked the second book in the series I always wondered how Stefan met his best friend Lexi， it's hard to believe that Damon didn't want to be a vampire but Stefan seemed to enjoy his new life as a vampire。 I thought it was sweet when Stefan met Callie and she tried to help him rescue Damon from her father's freak show。 I really liked the second book in the series I always wondered how Stefan met his best friend Lexi， it's hard to believe that Damon didn't want to be a vampire but Stefan seemed to enjoy his new life as a vampire。 I thought it was sweet when Stefan met Callie and she tried to help him rescue Damon from her father's freak show。 。。。more

Lillie Newton ，

For all you Vampire Diaries fans out there you should definitely read this series。 It starts out before Damon and Stefan get turned into vampires and it tells you about how they were transferring their lives into that of a vampire。 Super fun insight！

Anna Pothecary ，

This gave me quite an insight to Damon and Stefan and I rather loved it。 It was a brilliant read that I finished in 2 hours

2。5 stars。 Decent plot idea but dull execution。 This ghost writer is quite lacklustre and does neither the show or the original books justice。

Loren Johnson ，

I absolutely love Stefan’s Diaries！ Of course， I’m a little obsessed with “The Vampire Diaries” in general， but these books are fantastic。 This one was not quite as good as the first one， but I still gave it 5 stars because it was pretty close。 Can’t wait for the third one！

Wendy ** PotPourriDuneChouette ，

Je dois avouer que je ne me rappelle pas bien de certains passages de la série， donc， pour ce tome， j'allais en aveugle （ou pas， je ne sais pas haha）。 J'ai assez bien aimé， j'ai surtout aimé le fait que Lexi soit là; car c'est un personnage que j'aime beaucoup。 Il me tarde clairement de lire la suite ！ Je dois avouer que je ne me rappelle pas bien de certains passages de la série， donc， pour ce tome， j'allais en aveugle （ou pas， je ne sais pas haha）。 J'ai assez bien aimé， j'ai surtout aimé le fait que Lexi soit là; car c'est un personnage que j'aime beaucoup。 Il me tarde clairement de lire la suite ！ 。。。more
