Series vs Books

Having watched the series first and becoming hooked on it the reading books second i was so disappointed by how different it was and i generaly think the series is so much better but maybe the producers should have kept the storyline in the books, it kind of undermines L J Smith's work on her books that producers would just alter it so easily. Yet i think the producers of the show have twisted the original story really cleverly and it works alot better because people can relate more to Elena in the series. L J Smith writes a typical portrayal of a popular girl which is stereotypical bitchy and blonde and people can't really relate to that whereas they can to Elena because shes a normal girl that happens to be involved with the abnormal. I love the way series 3 shows stefans true colours, he was always quite boring and damons dangerous and exciting and i just really want them to get together!! 2  out of 2 found this valuable. Do you?
