ps Why didn’t you mention Eric?????

ppss and after reading the next two Sookie Stackhouse books, I am expecting a werewolf post as well.

But bleeding scares me.

That shit belongs on the inside.

N’ya mean?

I’m not a fan of Twilight though. If True Blood hadn’t gotten such good reviews and wasn’t so dark, I wouldn’t have touched it with a ten-foot pole. I only got through the first few chapters of Twilight– it reminded me too much of those awful books I used to read before you converted me to normal people books, haha.

I haven’t seen True Blood yet, but I did see Twilight. Edward was definitely hot.

I wonder what it is about vampires that people find to be so sexy though…I have a friend that is becoming obsessed and is reading anything and everything relating to vampires. Addicted to True Blood and the Twilight series.

For me though, they scare the crap out of me! LOL. But I’m probably the only one who feels that way.

I have to agree that vampires are super sexy, long before Edward came around who is IN FACT not sexy at all. He’s really ugly. AND he sparkles, which makes him not even a vampire. And the more popular it gets, the more angry it makes me. I read Dead Until Dark before Twilight was even out, Brandi loves that series. And she had me read the first one but I never got to the rest. If you like those, read the Anita Blake series - which is also a graphic novel series now. But the books are by Laurel K. Hamilton. She’s a vampire HUNTER, but the book features your usual super sexy male vampires. And no teenage-censoring of sexual frustration.

But I have to disagree that all vampires are sexy. Nosferatu is not a sexy vampire. At all. He’s quite hideous, but really cool and very sexually driven to his goal victim - a popular actress (in the movie, anyway). As are most versions of Dracula.

I guess I get mildly protective of vampires in this new annoyingly popular, teeny craze because I grew up with Brandi - and vampires to her are elves to me. So that was instilled in me back when vampires were still thought to be pretty gross and more of an underground cult following.

That being said - read “Companions of the NIght” by Vivian Vande Velde…. I love that book so much! It’s teen-y, and you’ll probably get through it in a day, but it’s no Edward. And, they talk about how vampires wrote my favorite song “Unchained Melody”. hehe.

So ends this super long message.
