Know any good books or series to read?

The Vampires Diaries by L.J. Smith is super amazing! If you don't watch the show (which you should), a bad boy (Damon Salvatore) falls for good girl (Elena Gilbert.) BUT, I would only recommend the first four books. I loved those a lot, but the newer series is just terrible, due to the 18 year gap between the two series being written. I couldn't even get past the first book in the new series! But the older ones I would read (:
