I can obviously think of a gazillion reasons to love it, but 10 seems like a round number...
1. The action is so fast and amazing it makes you fear blinking in case you miss something...
2. Hello?? Damon Salvatore's in the show!!
3. Several truly gasp-worthy moments in EVERY episode.
4. The Originals!! Sure, I'm not their biggest fan, but they spruce the show up a lot and make it a lot more interesting.
5. Flashbacks. Whether its the Originals 1000 years ago or Damon and Elena meeting just 1 year ago, you can never get enough of the flashbacks...
6. The truly beautiful main cast... from Nina Dobrev to Ian Somerhalder, the show does not lack looks!
7. The truly drool-worthy guest stars... who was that guy who played Ben again?
8. Damon and Stefan's influences... Stefan had Lexi, Damon had Sage... if Sage hadn't been there, Damon wouldn't have been as thrilling... he would be a more grounded (if possible) version of Stefan.
9. The whole "Sun and Moon curse is fake" thing. Totally didn't see that coming.
10. The diary entries. Sure, they got written out not far through season 1, but that was what made the show up until that point... without them, the show would just be "The Vampire." No Diaries.

They heard the door close and wondered who came barging in, until a familiar, female and British voice solved the mystery.
“Anyone home?” Rebekah called from downstairs.
“Ugh” Damon sighed. “I’ll go” He stood up and walked to the door, but when he wanted to open it, the door was slammed in his face and Rebekah barged in. She held a guy in her right hand and a blood bag in her left hand.
“What are you doing here?” Elena asked tired.
“I came to apologize” Rebekah explained flighty, while she tossed the bag to Damon. “I was wrong to bite you. It’s just that I busted Stefan smooching with that vamp strumpet and you look like her, so I got carried away. I don’t understand what it is that draws Stefan to women with your appearances. You’re not even that pretty”
“I appreciate your honesty” Elena commented sarcastically.
“Hey, I’m as open as your legs were last night” Rebekah replied blunt and Elena’s cheeks turned red.

Being a fan of the show, I was really excited when I found out that it was based on a book series!
Previously I had no idea.
After reading them I am convinced that they are even better than the TV show--so much more info on all of the characters.
I am also a big vampire buff and have read a lot of vampire fic--twilight does not compare.
There are currently 10 novels in the series (I have only read the first 4. But I really recommend fans to check them out!
1.1 The Awakening
1.2 The Struggle
1.3 The Fury
1.4 Dark Reunion
1.5 The Return: Nightfall
1.6 The Return: Shadow Souls
1.7 The Return: Midnight
1.8 The Hunters: Phantom
1.9 The Hunters: Moonsong
1.10 The Hunters: Destiny Rising

The Hospital
The door of the examination room slammed open and doctor Fell looked up. “Would you mind waiting outside, please?”she said annoyed.
Tyler ignored her and walked straight to the bed.
“How are you feeling?” he asked worried.
“I’m okay” Veronica said. “Doctor Fell gave me a miracle drug. I’m as good as new”
Meredith shot her a warning glance.
“How did you know where I was?” Veronica wondered.
“Rachel told me” Tyler explained. “She told me Rebekah attacked you”
Veronica shook her head. “Actually it was Stefan” she said.
“Why would Stefan want to hurt you?” Tyler asked skeptic. “He doesn’t even know you”
“Neither does Rebekah” Veronica shrugged. “They know. They know that we’re going to try and take them down. We’re going to have to move fast”
“No, what you need to do is stay away from Rebekah” Tyler said. “I mean it, Ronnie, she’s dangerous”
“So am I” Veronica said sharp.
