Why I Love Wednesdays... Favorite Book Movie Or Book TV Show

By Bookaholic @BookReflections

I am returning with my new feature... Why I love which takes place on Wednesdays. Today's proclamation of love concerns our Favorite Book Movies or Book TV Shows
Why I Love...The Vampire Diaries


OMG!!!  Where have I been? Seriously.  I am currently head over heels in love with The Vampire Diaries.   I'm kind of cheating in this post because I haven't actually read the books but oh well.  I know I am completely late, but for those of you who don't know, this TV series is about supernatural beings with a focus on...Vampires!!  Oh you already knew that? Mmmkay.  Well there are witches and werewolves, friendships, dead people, tested relationships, and Damon.  Yes Damon get's his own category.  There are two reasons why I love this TV series.  1) I'm always sitting on the edge of my seat and taken by surprise and 2) Damon.  I can't help that I love sarcastic characters.  Too bad that Damon is bad a lot of the time, but I can excuse killing people, crushing on your brother's girl, and manipulation if you are witty and sarcastic.  But that's just me.

Am I rambling?!  Yes.  But it's really hard not to.  I just finished watching season 1 & 2 on Netflix and now I have to find a way to catch up on the season 3 episodes that I have missed.  If anyone would have told me that I would love this series, I would have laughed in their face (but apologized afterwards).  There are a few things that I generally do not like.  I'm tired of love triangles which is always present here.  And this teenage drinking scene is so unrealistic is is laughable.  In my town you can't get in a bar unless you are 21 even if there is a pool table, but it seems to be the local hangout spot for these teens.  And I could talk about all the freedom, but we're all used to it by now.  I just ignore it all and pretend that the characters are the age that they act.  Works for me.  My gushing and rambling is getting out of hand so I'll stop here.  Oh and are the books better, worse, or just different from the show?  I need to know desperately.
