Good

Stefan's diaries were good info on the back story about the Salvatore brothers but bc I'm a VD fan, these books were a little boring bc at the time I read this series, I already read every other book they have on this series as well.

Pleasantly Surprised

Would you listen to The Vampire Diaries: Stefan's Diaries #5: The Asylum again? Why?

Yes. I'm sure there is some stuff that I missed the first time.

What did you like best about this story?

It gives somee of the back story that leads up to the original books.

Have you listened to any of Kevin T Collins’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

About the same. He's very good and expressive.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes

Better than previous books

I don't know if this book was better than the preview few in this particular series or if it was just better because I listened to it on Audio instead of reading it. But I did enjoy this one more that the others.

Better than the last book

This volume is better than volume four but still not as good as the first volume

The changing of the narrator!

Changing narrators after the first 4 books kind of ruins it they don’t have the same voice or accents. After the 5th book I don’t think I’ll listen to the 6th book. I think I’ll be done with this series.
