Cover and publication date for the Vampire Diaries: Midnight, and publication dates for Stefan’s Diaries
26 Comments »
Book three in The Return trilogy, Midnight, is now set for publication on March 15, 2011. You can get a good look at the cover for it, too, by clicking on the thumbnail to your left. Guesses as to who the redhead on the cover is in the comments. Bonnie with green eyes? Caroline with hair that’s a little too red for auburn… or someone completely new? Guess we’ll find out in March. ;)
In other Vampire Diaries news, it transpires that Stefan’s Diaries is actually a tie-in to the TV series, detailing the experiences of the Stefan Salvatore from that universe. It looks to be that it’s a project that L.J. Smith and executive producers of the TV series Julie Plec and Kevin Williamson will all be consulting on, though there are no details on who exactly will be writing it. As L.J. Smith is still involved I’ll post up information on that trilogy for those who may be interested. No details on individual synopses or book covers yet, but there are publication dates:
Stefan’s Diaries #1: Origins: November 2, 2010
Stefan’s Diaries #2: Bloodlust: January 4, 2011
Stefan’s Diaries #3: The Craving: May 3, 2011





















With that look in her eyes and scowl, I think that’s Caroline.

At first I though it was Misao but then I saw the green eyes…. maybe she shapeshirted their color or something?
[Reply]
I wouldn’t even have thought that it might be a new character! When I saw the cat-like green eyes I automatically thought ‘Caroline’. I’m so happy for LJS! That trilogy is going to sell like hotcakes :)

I don’t think it is Bonnie because the character on the cover has staright hair and that is really straight and Bonnie has really curly hair that if I remember right she usually left curly it could be Caroline but I thought her skin color was bronze not pale but being possed and stuff maybe her color has changed along with her hair but I really think that it is a new character
[Reply]
It’s got to be Caroline. It can’t be a new character so close in looks can it?
[Reply]
It’s Miaso- Shinichi’s sister. In the books it says Miaso has fire red hair and green eyes.

I thought she had gold eyes? kitsune have gold eyes
[Reply]
its got to be miaso, you can just tell with the firey red hair, and burning green eyes
[Reply]
I think it’s Miaso or Caroline. Caroline’s hair is more auburn but those are totally Caroline’s eyes. Miaso has black hair that’s scarlet on the tips, like Shinichi’s only brighter. Though, the girl on the cover looks to pale to be Caroline…

It is very strange… Perhaps it IS Caroline…going through some sort of physical change because she is pregnant with Tyler’s “pupies”. She is already going through a mental stage.
The cat-like and yet, still beautiful, eyes make it Caroline for SURE.

Well,if you’ve read all the books that are already out,Caroline’s story is kind of,left unfinished after Nightfall.Since the main poin of this book is ‘Stefan or Damon?’ then I doubt there’s the time for a new character.I say that’s Caroline.Maybe she will have a story ending too.

There are three people i can think of that could be on that cover Bonnie, Caroline, or Miaso. but i don’t think it could be Bonnie because she had curly hair and the person on the cover has staright hair. It could be Caroline but her hair is auburn and the person on the cover has flaming red hair but they do say in the book that Caroline had green eyes like on the cover. So i think it’s Miaso or a new character!

its bonnie mabey she went thourgh some chage and now shes all mysticall and what not so she straghted her and got contacs
[Reply]
I think its bonnie as a vampire. I think stefan probably gave her blood so she could heal and then she gets killed and brought back: one thing to back up my story, bonnes aunt prophesized that bonnie would die young and be beautiful in her grave.

I Agree with dj6 it obviusly can not be caroline bcause the only common thing that she has with the cover are the eyes, and misao has black hair and gold eyes, so its bonnie as a Vampire or a new character.

except in midnight, bonnie isnt the one who dies……
[Reply]
i heard theres supposed to be another trilogy after midnight, it supposivly called “the hunters” or “the hunted”. i hope theres more books,im obsessed with damon/elena being together, they have a heat between them that elena and stephen just donthave. and does anyone know what merdiths secret she’s been keeping since birth could be??
[Reply]
It has to be Bonnie because look at the bottom of the picture so I agree with Dj6 and YazR it could be a vamp or she goes blind and gets green contacts
[Reply]
The Actors name is Teesha Marcus. Dont know who she is in the show/book but the actor says that her role is a close friend of damons… SPOILER ALERT!
[Reply]
its probably the princess who he goes to to make him into a vampire again after he turned into a human. the characteristics match perfectly and she important to the book. but it could also be the red headed, crystal green eyed gardian who at the end of midnight has a stare down with elena. that is most likely who it is. im sure of it:)

It’s the goddess Inari. Japanese goddess of rice and foxes. The hairstyle is a bit off, it’s not a Japanese style but there you go.
