Elena Gilbert’s love, the vampire Stefan Salvatore, has been captured and imprisoned by demonic spirits who are wreaking havoc in Fell’s Church. While her friends Bonnie and Meredith explore the evil that has taken over their town, Elena goes in search of Stefan. In order to find him, she entrusts her life to Stefan’s brother, Damon Salvatore, the handsome but deadly vampire who wants Elena, body and soul. Along with her childhood friend Matt, they set out for the slums of the Dark Dimension, where Stefan is being held captive. It is rumored to be a world where vampires and demons roam free, but humans must live enslaved to their supernatural masters. Elena will stop at nothing to free Stefan. Yet with each passing day the tension between Elena and Damon grows, and she is faced with a terrible decision: Which brother does she really want?

To be fully honest here I’ve had some expectations for this book which this book didn’t live up to.

The first 2/3 of this book were super boring and I was many times very near DNF-ing this book but I didn’t, which I happy that I didn’t because the last 1/3 of this book was worth it. To be fully honest I’ve heard of better fan-fictions better than the first 2 / 3 of this book.

The last 1/3 of this book was super interesting and enjoyable, and it really was a page turner. 

The first 2/3 of this book was really a waist of time because it could have been sliced down to few chapters. Because the majority of what happened in the first 2/3 of this book was just talk between Damon, Elena, Bonnie and Meredith. 

However reading this book after the first book in the “the vampire diaries: the return” trilogy I must say that this book wasn’t half bad as the first book in this trilogy was.

The characters here, improves and become better but also make better decisions than they did in the previous books. To be honest this book is the first book in the vampire dairies book series that didn’t make me want to hit my head against a wall because of the dumb decisions made my characters.

The writing style here was easily the best thing from this whole book. Because it felt more like seeing the plot happening before your eyes than reading a book. I personally love when this happen. 

I Give This Book 2 / 5
