I Read Them And They're Really Great. It's A Good Read And Well-worth It. I've Never Seen The Movie,

I read them and they're really great. It's a good read and well-worth it. I've never seen the movie, so I'm glad it's coming on Netflix Dec. 7, but since you watched it...is it good or did it disappoint you because of it?

I just finished watching Vampire Academy and I am pleasantly surprised. Does anyone know if the books are good? Should I read them?

She deserves better than this. A person who ACTUALLY respects her and deserves to be loved the way she wants to be loved, not this crap they call a relationship. To be happy and away from everything in the supernatural world. The Originals have a better storyline than this!!!! At least it comes all together and sticks with the entire plot line instead of coming out with total BS from their asses

Hello. I am disgusted.

just a normal vampire

Is Lily Salvatore a heretic or just a normal vampire?

Shop Look Isn’t Polypore...but so far: It’s a close second

Today is Day 1 of our Polyvore withdrawal and right now...it’s not going very well. In over a couple of hours: Polyvore has shut down, bought and sold to the highest bidder (by way of SSENSE), and has become like every other website for fashion (and not very interesting about it, I may add). We, the fans and loyal people of the world and interweb, who love and adore Polyvore as much as I do, won’t take this sitting down. So far, Stage 1 has begun: Denial and Shock.

A natural response for Polyvore people who found out that their favorite place to go, the website that made them feel good, a place where they could make friends, compliment, and create entire identities and personalities, is gone. A world where it was bright, crazy, unpredictable, and - above all - special made life beautiful and bearable. The feeling of pride and happiness in the sense of style and preferences is replaced by new feelings: mediocrity and bland. 

For others, it was the only thing that gave them a sense of joy. A way for ordinary people to become different: to become high-end fashionistas and trendsetters without damaging their budget or bank account. It was modest but elegant; innovative and intriguing. A beautiful blend of code, fashion, and the love of the fashion world that made this dream a reality. 

Now, I will be blunt, and you all deserve to know my honest opinion. I am an optimistic person: I firmly believe that good things will happen, that out of a dark world a bright light will appear. I have faith that Polyvore won’t be eliminated or taken down. Some of you might think of me as a naïve person, while others still believe that everything will be set right. Truth be told...I’m afraid. I’m worried that it’s not going to be enough and Polyvore might cease to exist, which is something I don’t want to happen (unless if I have anything to say about it). 

The petition #BringBackPolyvore is going great so far. We’ve exceeded our 5k limit, and it’s on track to almost 7500 signatures. News buzz about our petition is spreading, and everyone is noticing Polyvore. However, if some people feel they should contribute a little more, you can email Oath Inc. (the company that owns Polyvore), and it’s CEO Tim Armstrong. Email the founders and CEO of Polyvore itself. Make your voices heard to him saying that to cancel or remove altogether the Polyvore website and program, is to remove and suppress the creativity and passions of the people. 

Furthermore, with all this talk about a backup website in case, I submit to all of you: ShopLook.io. It’s putting some extra things on its site, but it’s an excellent alternative for Polyvore. Let me explain a few details about the website. 

First of all, it’s cute; A trendy chic cute. It’s pure and bright, has a lot of potential for improvement, and is formatted the same as Polyvore. They are working diligently to make sure that Shop Look has some of the same features as Polyvore did, like the option of creating collections and fashion sets, clipping items to your profile and items list, commenting and liking fashion sets from other users, and sharing them on Pinterest. 

To continue, there are some new features they’re adding throughout the upcoming months: developing a new iOS and Android app for portable usage. Being able to communicate directly with the user and a new thing they’re adding is commission sharing with outfit creators (from what I’ve read on the button that says for ‘Polyvore Users'). Right now, they’re still working on the site so it will take a while before everything is ready to go. The subscription is free, just like Polyvore, and you can follow them on Twitter, Facebook, and Pinterest to follow what’s going on. 

For the next few days (or however long it takes), fighting for this beloved website is going to be a more significant challenge. But we have to remember that “An honest voice is sometimes louder than a crowd’s. Trust your voice.” - Reese Witherspoon

When i saw the opening scene of the episode, my jaw dropped to the floor and i couldn’t move for anything. This is a complete embarrassment of an episode. Isn’t the Gemini Coven the whole reason they’re in hell in the first place and the heretics are here? why don’t they just kill the babies already? that’s a more interesting storyline or her getting out of control and getting mad enough to beat up alaric or something...sorry for the rant of violence and killing of kids...but this is completely irrelevant now.

i know Alaric wants to have the kids, but doesn’t Caroline have a say too as well? i’m guessing everyone’s going to guilt (more like manipulate) her into keeping them for the full term (which they did from the future flashbacks) and be happy with a human that anyone can kill.

Great job, TVD...you have officially burried yourself into an early grave.

I CAN’T BELIEVE CAROLINE IS GOING TO MARRY THE MAN WHO MURDERED HER FATHER!!! I CAN’T FUCKING BELIEVE IT!!!!!

Well, I read the books and loved them, but never seen the movie, so idk what to expect. But I saw some clips and thought they're really good so far. But I'll wait until Dec. 7 to watch the movie to pass judgment. But read the book series, they're really good. Plus, I'm bummed that they're not making a sequel for this movie.

I just finished watching Vampire Academy and I am pleasantly surprised. Does anyone know if the books are good? Should I read them?
