That is an interesting question George.

Personally, I like the darker tales where the vampire has more of a monster quality to them. The horror stories.

Todays tormented vampire that just wants to love a human seems a little off to me. Don't get me wrong some of those stories are still very good and some are even favorites. But whenever I think of vampires I think of the scary monsters that lurk in the dark and not the vamps of Urban Fantasy & Paranormal Romance. ]]> <![CDATA[new comment from Shanon]]> http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/250626-february-theme-get-your-thinking-caps-on Shanon made a comment in the Witches, Weres, and Vamps, Oh MY! group:

How old is she in the books? I know she's young but I keep thinking of her being closer to 20 because of her maturity. ]]> <![CDATA[new comment from Shanon]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/54017876 Jessi's review of Ink Exchange (Wicked Lovely, #2)
by Melissa Marr

Oh no! Not so good huh? Sorry you didn't like this one. The next book, Fragile Eternity, goes back to the main charaters from Wicked Lovely so you might still like it. ]]> <![CDATA[new comment from Shanon]]> http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/250314-the-amulet-a-faedra-bennett-custodian-novel Shanon made a comment in the Witches, Weres, and Vamps, Oh MY! group:

This is so kind of you to offer your book for free! Now the hard part will be deciding if I should read it or listen to the audiobook... decisions, decisions.

THANK you so much! ]]> <![CDATA[Shanon is on page 1 of Catching Fire ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/79561883 Shanon is starting Catching Fire
