Overall, I liked the book. Wasn't quite as detailed about living within the Tudor Court as I thought it would be. Very interesting story, the collision of two entirely different worlds. The book, to me, started fairly slowly but by midway through the book I was hooked and couldn't put it down.

After reading all the Twilight books (which I loved) this was a much different spin on the vampire world. It was a very light, quick read. It was a welcome change to the "deepness" of the Twilight series. I ordered the second book before I even finished the first!


Laughin'fertility: A Bundle of Observations for the Baby-Making Challenged
Review Date: 5/16/2010


I bought this book after I had been trying to conceive for about 8 months. We were starting to look into fertility treatments, so this book seemed perfect. It was funny and entertaining about what can be a very stressful and difficult time. I highly recommed it for thosee who are in the midst of the fertility process and need a little comic relief from it all!

I, too, read this volume in quick succession to the first Omnibus. The Fury was written well. I felt like I had to continue reading to see what would happen next. Not a real in depth plot, but after reading the first volume, I didn't expect it to be. Dark Reunion, however, is a different story. I felt like the main characters in the previous book were not "main" in this book at all. I would have like to have heard more from both Stefan and Damon's perspectives instead of Bonnie's. It felt like the author needed to "fix" the ending she left in The Fury...which is fine, but I think that a little more vampire and a little less human plot lines would have made the story much more enjoyable.
