This book really wasn't good. I've only watched a couple episodes of the tv show, but this is definitely one of those times when the tv/movie adaption is better (though apparently it is a very loose adaption). Elena, the main character (can't say heroine - she does absolutely nothing heroic)is snotty, shallow and arrogant. As is just about every other character in her little clique. The two brothers are stereotypical arrogant, dark brooding vampires. The plot rambles and drags and covers all the cliched “heroic” vampire plot points possible. Cliches+cheese+boring does not make for a good read.
