A new enemy has appeared and seeks revenge for a death the Salvatore brothers have caused. Stefan and Damon will have to work together to fight the greatest evil yet. Who is this new enemy and why is he after Damon and Stefan? Will Stefan and Damon stop him?
Opinion:
Stefan Diaries: The Craving by L.J Smith is a fantasy fiction book filled with drama, revenge, action, and lies. Stefan is telling the story. I like the fact that it is in first person because it makes the reader ask questions about what is going on and keeps the reader reading just to find out. As I read it, I imagined myself as a character in the novel that didn't really exist but saw everything that happened. I loved how the plot twists and turns. The climax is surprising and perfect. I would've liked to see more character development in Stefan and Damon. I would recommend this to the fans of popular books like The Twilight Saga, Harry Potter, and The Vampire Diaries.
