Vampire Books

I was browsing the bookstore yesterday, and was astounded by the amount of vampire novels there were. And not just vampire novels, but series of vampire novels. It seems as though the Twilight series has created some sort sudden influx of everyone releasing vampire novels and series, thinking they will have the same amount of fame and talk about it. To be honest, none of them looked that intriguing. I know you shouldn't judge a book by its cover, but there were a few that had the similar covers at the books in the Twilight series. Blatant ripoffs like that are not going to make me purchase your book. Im not going to froth over them. I'm not going to borrow them from the library and read them. I'm going to sit back, and read books that aren't obviously trying to become as big as Twilight.

Sure, it was a good book. It started getting a little old and tedious after the second book, and Bella is one character who I wish never existed. She is extremely boring, and it's quite obvious she does not know how to live a life as an independent person. It comes across even worse in the movie. Actually, the movie was not even that great. I admit, I only watched it to perve on Robert Pattinson. The acting wasn't that great, but I have seen much worse movies. And yes, I have plans on purchasing it on dvd (once it's much cheaper), and I also have plans on seeing the other movies in the series.

I am reading another vampire novel at the moment. But it is far from being anything like Twilight, and its other ripoffs.

Let The Right One In, by John Ajvide Lindqvist. Im not even halfway through the book, but Im enjoying it much more then all four Twilight books put together. This has also been made into a movie, which I am keen to see. I will deffinatly be getting his other book Handling The Undead. (He does have other books, but they have not yet been translated from Swedish to English.)
