Here is an excerpt from the article:
“The Vampire Diaries” may be based on L.J. Smith’s young adult novels from the ’90s, but star Ian Somerhalder warns that the show doesn’t stay completely faithful to the books. So, it’s probably a good thing he hasn’t read much of them yet.
“I was actually told not to,” he told MTV News. “I think by virtue of the fact that they may be deviating very often from the books and not to be married to whatever was in those books. But now I’m checking it out.”
What little he has read, however, has helped the TV vampire find his inner teenage girl. “It’s on my bedside table. I feel like a young girl when I wake up,” he joked. “Grab my coffee and open ‘The Vampire Diaries.’ ”
