I've never read this series so thank you for the opportunity to read it!
Cassandra, I couldn't agree more about Demon - he's a little bit swoon-inducing! ;)
And thank you for the early birthday wishes - I'm very excited! Am getting a second bookcase! <3
:) Dani.
To say the very least! And you're welcome.. I need a new bookcase... have fun filling it up!!!!
My favorite character is Damon..of course xD Also he is the main reason I love the series so much! Where I live we had only 2 seasons on tv,but I make sure to watch the 3rd one in english every week. I'm addicted! =)
Thank you for the wonderful giveaway! And happy early Birthday!!

Awesome giveaway! Love the show, I've been dying to read the books!!!
My favorite character is Stephan, but Damian is pretty tempting too. ;)
What a great giveaway! I love Damon, gotta love the bad boy ;) Happy Early 21st Birthday!! Mine is the 9th!
Happy early birthday to you too, then! :D Have a great one!
:) Dani.
I love the Damon...but am hoping that the books are better than the show!
amazing giveaway !!!
I love the books and my favourite character is of course Damon Salvatore!
I don't really have a favorite thing about the Vampire Diaries because it's all awesome, but my favorite character is Damon, who doesn't like a bad boy?
Thanks for the great giveaway and happy early birthday!!
Oh wow your contacts over at Hachette are FABULOUS! I want to give them a hug ;)
Ya know, I've never read the Vamp Diaries but I sure as heck watch it every week! I'm super addicted! Most of all, I like to watch the brothers' sarcastic humor-it totally brightens my day. (Well that and their hotness, but that's obvioso. I love Damon for that same reason. He keeps his cool under the worst of circumstances and makes a snarky comment and gives one of those swoon-worthy smiles of his LOL!

It's mysterious, and it has vamps in it. And romance.:D Thanks for this CRAZY giveaway!
I love that even though The Vampire Diaries is a little ridiculous sometimes it's still completely addictive and the best kind of candy. My favorite character is Vampire Caroline. I don't know why. She's just the most interesting to me.
Thanks for the giveaway!
Damon all the way! I always fall for the mysterious/misunderstood guy ;)
My fav thing is the romance. I love Elena Gilbert. She's nice and warm but strong and determined when she has to.
Thank you for the giveaway :)
My favorite character of all is Elena, she is so strong person.
Oh my goodness, this is an awesome giveaway! Thank you so much, I joined right away.
damon because is a bad-good boy.
Thanks for this giveaway i Love vampire diares
I love the vampire diaries because the vamps are hot and my favorite character is actually Bonnie because I love that she's thrown into situations and has to learn her magic on the spot to accomplish what is needed...Thanks for the giveaway.
I like that the show is never boring - there is always action. My favorite character is Damon.

My favorite thing about the Vampire Diaries is the historical flashbacks! so fun! My favorite Character is by far Jeremy, He's had a rough go but I think he's handled it well
These have been on my To-Read list forever! Thanks for the chance, this is amazing!
jenn dot cunha at gmail dot com
Gina, you will love this series then! These books basically start back in 1864. It's the history of Stefan, basically :)
Jeremy isn't in the books, but I do agree that he's a great character in the series!
:) Dani.
I've only read the first and not sure who's my favourite character yet!
Thanks for this giveaway! :D
Thanks for stopping by my giveaway! Stopping by yours :)
Thanks for the giveaway
Angela @ The Little Blue Pig
I don't know much about the series. I've only seen the TV show and my fav character there is Damon.
Possibly a stupid question: how do you find your blogger GFC?
GFC is just Google Friend Connect. It's the normal follow box on the left side bar :)
That picture on top did distract me! I think i like Elena's younger bro (more so in the TV series)
Thanks for this awesome giveaway!
Stefan! Definitely!

Thank you for this awesome giveaway, Dani! I love Vampire Diaries...I'm not sure I can choose a favorite character, because it changes on a regular basis...I love Elena, and I waffle between Stefan and Damon. And I love Jeremy, too. Oh, and Ric lol

Hi! I've just discovered your blog! I'm a new follower and also a great fan of The Vampire Diaries!
Thanks for this awesome giveaway ! :D
Sorry, I forgot to answer the questions ! Stefan is my favorite character! I love him! But Damon is cute too. The thing I like in TVD is the fact that it's very addictive! It's my favorite series, I can't stay a week without seeing it!
My favorite thing about the series is the surprising twists and that its very addictive! My character is Damon because he's soooo hot!
I love the love triangle. I first read the series and The Secret Circle when it was originally published and it was one of my first paranormal books. I'm glad to see it re-issued :) Stefan is one of my favorite character because he's dark and yet light.
I love the surprises in the story! I only watch the show though lol. My favorite character probably Damon. Thank you for this amazing giveaway!
I haven't read it but I love to. My friend suggested it.
the story is so interesting and has good twists! i also like the show even tho its way different. But i LOVE damon!!
It's all so fascinating & intriguing. LOVE DAMON - what's not to love right??

Wow thanks for the giveaway! :) Hmm, I haven't read the books yet (I know, I know, I'm missing out on a lot!), but I've heard amazing things about it! :) Put that together with the fact that L.J. Smith wrote The Forbidden Game, which is my fav YA of all time, and I just know I have to read it! And there's romance!!! :D and hot vamps:) what's not to love?
My fav thing about this series is that it's about VAMPIRES! I love Damon!!!!
Eeeee! I'm a HUGE fan of the show but I never got the chance to read the books.
Thanks for the opportunity :)
Oh, my favourite thing about The Vampire Diaries (the show, I mean, since I haven't read the books) is that inspite of the fact that almost all the characters are supernatural beings, there's an inherent humanity somewhere in there - that tells us that they aren't much different from us. I think the characters are some of the best ones I've come across - well-rounded, flawed and more significantly, real.
My favourites are Caroline and Tyler.
Damon! He's a complicated character.
My favorite thing about the Vampire Diaries is the love triangle, and my favorite character is Damon.
honestly i havent read the books or seen the show! My friends how been getting on to me about watching or at least reading the seires! :D
I love Damon and I also like Bonnie. I also love Damon in the tv-series. It really sucks that I haven't been able to read all the book yet, only the five first ones.
My favorite is Damon!!!! :P
I haven't read the books, only watching the show, so it would be great to win them :)
Thank you so much for the wonderful giveaway!
I waited for a chance to read these book.. (:
Thank you for this giveaway and for making it international!
My favorite character is Caroline. I like about the series that once you think "everything will be okay now" and find out it's not. LOL
Well, I've only ever seen the television show, but my favourite character is probably Stefan...though I also love Caroline!
I haven't yet read this series. I'm working on it though. Thank you for the chance to win!
DeAnna Schultz
I love Damon!!! yes i know I think of him from the tv show but even when my sister described him in the book I love him @_@
Thanks for the great giveaway!!!
i love the romance and action of TVD and my favorite character is Damon! :D
I have to admit - Damon is, by far, my favorite... There's just something so deliciously evil and yet still somehow redeemable about him! Thanks for the giveaway...
favorite thing about TVD is that it's very addicting! I'm Team Vampire and I definitely love the lore that TVD portrays. My favorite character would be Elena Gilbert played by the most awesome Nina Dobrev! love her to death, she's just gorgeous ♥
Thanks for the chance of winning the series~
Entered as Jayjay Atanacio
My favorite part about the vampire diaries is damon! I liked him long before ian somerhalder played him on tv... but now he's better lol
I honestly have no idea, because I've never read it! I've also never watched the tv show. I told myself I'd read the books first, then catch up on watching it.
I am a huge fan of the show but have not gotten to read the books yet... I love them all in the show though... :-)
My favorite is when Elena turned Vampire... I also love her and Damon as usual :)
Hi
My favorite thing right now is the relationship Elena and Damon have.
My favorite character is of course DAMON!
Thanks for the giveaway!

What I like? How Damon can always make his way in every situation, he's smart mouth, he makes me laugh! And of course he is my favorite character!
I, too, love the show, but have yet to read this book. Fingers crossed, and thanks for the awesome giveaway.
I love the show and the series! I wish I could have the book novel. Vampire Diaries are awesome! I love Damon! He is super awesome!
Great giveaway Love the show!:)
I have never read the books but I have watched the first season of the show! My favorite character is Catherine because she is pretty evil but also kind of similar to Elena! Blows my mind!
Happy early Birthday! :)
My favourite thing about VD..Ive only read the first book but ive watched the show and i love all the plot lines! And Damon is my favourite character! Besides being swoon worthy he's the most interesting to me.
My favorite thing about TVD is Damon!!! I love my bad boy vampire :) I've never read the books, but I've watched the series and love it! I'd really like to read these books so I would know if the show follows the book or not!
I've just recently started watching it and Damon is definitely swoon worthy. :) I would love to read the books. Thanks for the contest!

I have heard amazing things about these books and I am eager to read them, asap :) Thank you for the giveaway :)
Thanks for the giveaway! I'm currently making my way through the 6th TVD book. Favourite character hmmm I don't know, maybe Damon.
Thanks for the giveaway! I've only watched the first and part of the second season - haven't read any books yet. I need to catch up! So far, I think my favorite character would be Stefan. I love anything to do with vampires, so this fits the bill!
Stefan is my fav character and I love anything vampiric!
My favourite thing about this series is Stefan! Oh and Jeremy:) But seriously, I've never understood why most of my friends go crazy over Damon, because Stefan was my guy from the very beginning. I've read all the books and I watch each episode as soon as it's aired and my heart just skips a beat every time Stefan's face pops up on screen- even now that he's turned bad. Good guy or bad guy- I'll always be Team Stefan!:)
Thank you for this generous giveaway!:)
Sarah B. Setar
I lvoe so Much the love triangle between the Salvatore brothers and Elena. I know that love is something dangerous sometimes.
My fav character is surely Damon. His personality is so interesting.
Lucia
definitely stefan cause he's just amazing, protecting Elena and everything!
Damon because he is the sexy bad boy!!
I love the Vampire Diarie because of the characters. My favourite character got to be Damon. hmmm...that boy! <3 Bad and sexy!
I don't have the Vampire Diaries books, so I can't say what I do/don't like about them. On the show I love Stefan - being bad or good - I don't care! I hate how they live in this little town but always have some huge event going on. I'd be very tired if I lived there!!
- Jessica @ Book Sake
they are awesome and it has to be stefan
My favorite one is Damon.. he is so sexy ahah ^^
Well, I love VD because I love everything that talks about vampires lol My favorite character is Stefan :)
@Tibiux
Hi! Thanks for this giveaway! I like this series because I LOVE vampires so I'm easily impress LOL But I like the style of Smith! my fav character is Damon : I love his eyes and is personality.
My birthday is on February 8th too!;)
Yay! Happy birthday to you too for Wednesday! How old are you going to be? (if you don't mind me asking?) :)
Dani
I honestly have not read the books & I've only seen the first episode but my son & his friends are all into the show. Damon & Stefan are both pretty hot =)
27... Ugh, I'm getting old!
Have fun for your birthday! :) We should compare our presents!;D
I love everything about VD ! :) especially Damon! he has so many different sides to him .... :)
Thanks for the giveaway ! :)
My favourite thing about the Vampire Diaries is also my favourite character...Damon! I also love how Caroline's changed from the books to the show. She's so awesome on the show. :D
I love the Vampire Diaries! My favorite thing about the books (and the show) is the crazy way they weave all their backstories and mysteries together from episode to episode - and book to book. My favorite character is Damon, of course. But i also find Elijah very cool. ;)
I find it immensely challenging to answer what my favorite thing about TVD is, nonetheless, I absolutely love both the book series and the show, so I'll give it my best shot. My favorite thing about the books is the chemistry between Elena and Damon. They have a connection that can't be explained and their attraction to one another is so tense and mysterious and when they're in a scene together I'm glued to the book. The the thing I didn't like about the books was early in the series Elena's character was too stuck-up. Even after her parent's death, she was still too much of a possessive queen bee and that attitude just really wasn't attractive. I am thankful that in the show, Elena doesn't portray that at all. My favorite character in both the book and the show is Damon, because despite everything he's been through he still has a great sense of humanity. When he discovered the truth about Katherine, he was heartbroken and he didn't turn off his humanity and he fell in love with Elena. He knows that it's always going to be the 'Elena and Stefan' show, but he has a passionate hope and it makes him the strongest, and my favorite, character. Thanks for the giveaway opportunity.
My favorite thing it's that they are traditional vampires.And (of couse!) I love the love story (I'm a sucker for romance even if envolves a little of death).
My favorite caracter is Stefan and the evil Katerina (also i really like the sound of the name Katerina, i'm from Chile so it doesn't sound that foreign but still it's so cool in my spanish ears)
I love it so much because it's a supernatural show. There's a vampire, werewolf and a witch. Complete package. LoL. Plus it's super exciting every episode. I love Damon, rude but sweet and hot. :)))
My favorite thing about The Vampire Diaries is that the story is so unpredictable. I'm always excited to watch incoming episodes. My favourite character is Caroline because she's so strong, cool and lovely.
I love everything about the show, the story is just amazing. I haven't gotten to read the books yet, but they are on my list. I think Damon is my favorite right now, it changes a lot. He is just so hot though.
The favourite thing: hey the show is about vampires :)and I love vampires. My favourite character is Daemon because is funny, interesting and hot.
I haven't read any of the new Vampire Diary books. I loved the old ones, but I'm not sure if they follow the same plot, or if the new books follow the tv show. elena is my fave character.
Happy Birthday!
