The books are pretty bad, but if you ignore Elena (she really is a lot better on the show) and pretend that they're intentionally bad they become a lot more entertaining. (The only other book series of hers that I've read is the Secret Circle and it's a lot better, but the love story is slightly more ridiculous. LJ Smith is hit and miss most of the time. Something must be sacrificed.)

I'd never even heard of these books before the show was being developed. This sort of literature was off my radar when I was the target market for it.

That being said, so far Stefan is hilariously obtuse in the bit of the first book I've managed so far.
