In the begining of this book, Elena is a bit confused. After becoming a vampire, her mind goes a little waco. She make bad decisions. This is where Matt Honeycutt steps in. He really risks a lot to help Elena in every way. From helping her get Stefan, to helping her save Stefan, then to letting her drink his blood. All this AFTER she dumps him. He's a man...a real man. I really liked Matt...no matter how dorky he was, he was the most honorable character in the series. And isn't that what really counts? Anyway, Elena comes back to her senses and reunites with Stefan, which I must say, brought a tear to my eye. So together with Meredith, Bonnie, Matt, Damon, and Aleric (vampire hunter/history teacher...don't even ask.) they chase after the Other Power that is terrorizing Fell's Church. Who or What is this strange power...you must read it to find out! But for those of you who have read it...wasen't the Other Power just a little too convienant? I thought so, but I must admit...it definatly had me guessing!
When Stefan tells Elena what's up.
"Right now I'm thinking you always get your way. Because you always do, don't you Elena?"<89> (The honeymoon phase was over right about then.)
When Elena tells Meredith and Bonnie about her new state of being and Meredith makes the fabulous remark..."I get the point" <100>
When Damon tells Katherine to "go to hell" <260>. He always comes through at the end.
Other than the ones I mentioned above, I have a few other ones too!!
Damon-"Don't be anymore stupid than you can help."(83)If I was a jerk...I'd use this line all the time!
Elena-"I can't go down there. They think I'm dead!"
Damon-"Oh, you've remembered that. Good for you."(77)
(translated..."dumb blond!")
Damon-"Sorry, no. And I usually do remember girls I leave wondering around in thier slips."(202)
Okay, not to repeat myself...but I just love this line.
Damon-"Katherine"
Katherine-"Yes."
Damon-"Katherine..."
Katherine-"Yes,Damon?"
Damon-"Go to hell."(260) Awesome stuff!
You know what I would like to comment on, the bizarreness of the people of Fell's Church. (For those of you who don't know this...there is a FALL's Church in VA...right outside of D.C...interesting!)Anywho, I mean, denile is NOT a river in Egypt. These people suffered from serious denile. I mean, if there was some crazy stuff like that happening in my town...you better belive I'd be telling people about it afterwards! Not simply pretending it didn't happen!
And another thing! Can anyone explain to me why exactly Elena was all over Damon right after she changed? I never understaood it. Was it just because she had his blood last? Or was it because she wanted him BAD. Elena, in my opinion, was nothing but a polite and pretty garden tool, if you know what I'm sayin'. Man, when Stefan said choose...she should have been...YOU, I CHOOSE YOU! Instead of being like..."aaaaaaaawwwwwwweeee...do I have to?"
This book, along with the other three Vampire Diaries are now currently in print. I know about three months ago they reprinted them after popular demand. Shows you what people really can accomplish if they want it bad enough!
