The final volume of The Return trilogy (and the final L.J. Smith-penned Vampire Diaries novel), Midnight, is out today in North America. We know Australians and U.K. fans have had the book for a few weeks now, and many U.S. and Canadian fans were discovering it in bookstores this past week, but today it should be widely available.

We posted previously about Michael Trevino’s photoshoot for Bello Mag, and now we have a sneak peek at the cover thanks to Michael’s publicist. The pics Michael posted last week don’t do this cover justice – Clark Kent, eat your heart out. ;)

UK fans, you have one explosively fun episode to look forward to. We have witches up to all kinds of awesome tricks, vampires singing, secrets revealed, Katherine being her usual fabulous self, and the return of Isobel. I also have to confess some relief that the past two episodes are now out of the way. I keep muddling up the titles and keep wanting to type ‘The House Party’. Not sure one of those in Mystic Falls would be exactly wise given how the simple dinner party last week ended up…
There’s plenty of time to still join in with the buzz following the episode after it aired in the US:
Tune in to ITV2 (and be sure to follow @itv2 on Twitter for some entertaining live-tweeting) at 9pm tonight to catch The House Guest, or catch it again at 10pm on ITV2+1. Still need to catch up on the previous episode? You can watch it on ITV Player, or download it in HQ from iTunes UK.

With the wolves out of the picture (for now, anyway), Damon has to find some other kind of trouble to get into. What could possibly go wrong with a simple dinner party? Given Elijah’s invited and that Damon is teaming up with Alaric… a lot. And that’s not the only party going on in town. Flashback to 1864, and we’re treated to Stefan’s darker side as he attends his own little party.

Damon fans will be delighted that Ian Somerhalder has been confirmed for EyeCon at the end of March, on Sunday 27th. He’ll be appearing on behalf of the Ian Somerhalder Foundation, which will be hosting some games, contests and fundraisers over the weekend. Because he’s appearing for the Foundation rather than as an official EyeCon guest, the free autograph that comes with Platinum tickets doesn’t apply, but there will be paid autograph and photo ops available. All proceeds from these will be going to the ISF, so it’s for a good cause.
MORE INFORMATION ON THE EYECON WEBSITE
Michael Trevino has also been confirmed for the UK’s Insurgence convention in Birmingham on the 3rd – 5th June 2011. He’ll be joined by David Anders and Lauren Cohan, with more guests to be announced later on.

Those darned wolves just won’t let anyone have any peace and quiet in Mystic Falls, and are determined to ruin everyone’s pleasant plans of romantic getaways and tea parties. Suffice to say that all is not well in our supernaturally-attractive town, and that there will be cheers and tears before this episode is over.

Tune in to ITV2 (and be sure to follow @itv2 on Twitter for some entertaining live-tweeting) at 9pm tonight to catch Crying Wolf, or catch it again at 10pm on ITV2+1. Still need to catch up on the previous episode? You can watch it on ITV Player, or download it in HQ from iTunes UK.

Last week you all needed a box of tissues. This week, we recommend a pillow to bite or hide behind when it all gets too tense for you. Uncle John (plus fingers) is back to cause trouble for everyone under the guise of helping Elena. Stefan attempts to reach out to Tyler, Damon is a very naughty boy, Brady is a very bad man (and he seemed so nice on Twitter!), and there’s cool witchy juju to remind us these people are not to be messed with.

Without giving anything away, we recommend that you have a box of tissues on hand (preferably some of those nice Kleenex Balsam tissues – you’ll appreciate the extra softness). We’re going to be finding out what’s in store for poor Rose, what Damon will be doing to find a cure, what those pesky werewolves have planned, and more about that deal Elena made with Elijah.
And how cool is this, UK fans? We’re only 5 days behind the US, now, and there’s plenty of time to still join in with the buzz following the episode:
