She is so selfish that everyone around her feels sorry and blames themselves when they aren’t able to fulfil Elena’s whims. She is so self absorbed, so magnetic a personality, so who everyone looks up to, that they are all completely willing to go along with anything Elena wants. …Triple murder? Hard to tell really.Įlena is one of those characters that is so utterly selfish, others around her don’t realise she is being selfish because they’re so used to her acting that way. Well, at least it is a love triangle that ends in murder. Stefan and Katherine and Stefan’s brother, Damon, are involved in just a regular old love triangle. Which isn’t even the only tangle in this mess. Stefan also likes Elena instantly, which is just weird because apparently she looks enough like Katherine that she doesn’t even realise a picture of Katherine isn’t her. Then Stefan’s brother, Damon, comes around and boy is he pretty and hit all the right buttons for her, even though it is unclear whether Damon likes her or wants her because Stefan has her.

This is a love triangle within a love triangle with a love triangle within a…? Elena likes Matt but breaks up with him even though he still loves her, and then she finds she loves Stefan, who is still hung up on his own teenage lover Katherine who died. See, this isn’t just a simple she likes him, he likes her romance. There is a lot more to it than that, but it is all on the romance side of things. Mostly, The Awakening is the story of a selfish, popular teenage girl who falls in love instantly with a vampire who seems to hate himself, and is determined that he will be hers. I’ve had some rotten luck with young adult, lately, so this was also surprisingly readable, especially considering what I remembered of the series. This is less a testament to my ability to remember what I read 10 years ago, than the fact that this is a very short book that doesn’t actually have a lot that happens in it. I remember it much the same as I just read it. Years and years and years ago now, I read the first five books of the Vampire Diaries (the original quadrilogy and the first of the “new” (at the time) trilogy). And the worst thing is that I feel there’s somewhere I do belong, but I just can’t find it.” Review:

“Right now everything looks so strange to me, as if I don’t belong here. He can’t risk the pain of losing another that he may love, especially since he thinks he is having blackouts and nearly killing the townspeople. Stefan Salvatore is determined to avoid Elena at any cost, because she looks like the young woman that changed him from human to vampire. Then she meets the new boy in school, and is determined to have him. Warning: Love triangle within a love triangle within a love triangle Blurb:Įlena Gilbert knows something bad is about to happen but she doesn’t know what. Warning: Major Cliffhanger (So big this can’t even be considered a full story)
