Review: Her first decision was to choose between the two beautiful Salvatore brothers - Elena faces many decisions in this book in the Vampire Diaries: The Hunters. Her first decision was to choose between the two beautiful Salvatore brothers. She chooses Stefan and Damon isn’t too happy. She also learns that she has the option to be a Guardian of earth. She doesn’t want to be one because of how nasty the Guardians can be and she doesn’t want to turn into one of them. But there is a new threat to the world and Elena and her friends will do whatever they can to save it from the danger. The Vitale vampires raised old powerful Klaus from the dead and now he is out to get Elena for killing him. Being a Guardian will help Elena in the fight against Klaus because she will receive new powers. After she meets another fellow earth Guardian and realizes she can still be herself while being a Guardian, she decides she will be one. Damon isn't taking rejection well and he goes back to his old ways of killing innocent girls while feeding. This upsets the Guardians and they tell Elena to kill Damon as one of her task as earth Guardian. Elena has the option of killing Damon and accessing her full powers as Guardian to fight Klaus and save her friends and world form danger. She is determined to not have to make that choice and tries to find another way to save the world without killing Damon. This was probably the most intense book out of the three Vampire Diaries: The Hunters. I felt bad for Damon when he was heartbroken by Elena’s choice and then later finds out that the girl he loves is assigned to kill him. He is just getting the shorter end of the stick in this book. I was also happy for Elena that her mind is finally at peace with who she really loves with all her heart. This book had a lot more action and fighting in it than the others. The way the author describe the fights scenes was easy to understand of what was going on. Mysteries are finally revealed in this book and it shocked me when I read them. You don’t expect what is revealed which was a nice twist to the book. I would recommend this book to anyone who is fan of vampire and romance novels. This book has a nice balance of both love and vampires. You would never expect what happens next and it keeps you wondering what is going to happen. Also not everyone is as they seem. The characters true selves and identities might shock you. There are big secrets finally told and you won’t believe it when you read it.
Review: Booktastic - The book came in great condition! As a Vampire Diaries fan you know when the story started to fall off. Otherwise this is a great addition to keep for the story line.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ So glad …
*by M***L on June 18, 2023*

that this is hopefully end game for stelena , love Stefan but they do not work together. Really happy that they had someone write three other books although I have not read them yet ( my next sires is that one ) I have saw comments that Delena is the final end game in these next 3 books I know it’s a ghost writer but fingers crossed.
