Elena Gilbert is back from the dead, but she’s come back changed—with newfound powers and blood that is irresistible to vampires, including Stefan and Damon Salvatore, the two vampire brothers who love her. Unfortunately, it’s not just vampires who are drawn to her. Darkness is infiltrating her hometown of Fell’s Church and is taking over the minds of young girls. Even worse, a demon has taken possession of Damon, causing him to turn on his brother, Elena’s friends, and even on Elena herself. The Return: Nightfall is perfect for fans of the hit CW TV show The Vampire Diaries, as well as fans of the original New York Times bestselling series who can’t wait to see what happens next with Elena, Stefan, and Damon.

"A good follow-up, but extremely confusing. I also like it because most of the book was from Damon's point of view, which I find much more interesting than Elena's. Damon may be the so-called "evil" brother, but he brings a lot of life into the book and is one of my favorite characters."

    " After reading 6 chapters I just couldn't go on. The first few books in the series were pretty good. I never really liked Elena so I found the new focus on her "purity" rather annoying. This one started out too weird for to want to continue. This marks the end of the series for me. "

    " It was kind of struggle to try to get this one read. Not sure why though since I've read the first four already and they were ok. I got into page 100 and something and then I was urged to stop reading, it just didn't feel worth reading anymore. I might just be too old for this kind of literature :D "

    " I was so upset with this book I wanted to throw it against the wall! I don't know what she was thinking when she wrote this one, but it seemed poorly put to together to me. The ending was so aweful I don't know if I will read any more of The Vampire Diaries book, "

    " I cried. Literally inside and out. I loved it. Except for the end where they killed Damon and then she was 'stripped' of her wings and powers...and that she ended up with Stefan-typical! Finished it in much less than a day. "

    " The story easily continues in this next Vampire Diares book. We all want to know what happens next. On the downside, the storyline has become really complex, so if you're not the brightest crayon in the box, you should save yourself the trouble and just watch the TV series... "
