Talking My Latest Obsession!

Vampire books!
I love them. I started getting into vampire books after reading a book called Twilight. (author unknown, sorry)
Heh, I'll admit that after reading that book and its sequel I actually wanted to become a vampire myself. *laughs*
But, anyway, does anyone else read vampire books? Any recommended titles? ^^
Thanks.
*Carrie*

I've read some Anne Rice books.
I like them, personally...

What's the sequel to Twilight? (My friend is currently reading Twilight and loves it. I have Christmas presents on my mind, haha.)

As for vampire books, I love them. I have to like the "type" of vampires in the book though, aheh.

Vampires are a great interest to me too. I have the ideas for a vampire story in my head. I have been thinking about making it an online serial or fleshing it out into a novel or trilogy of novels.

Anyway... I like the gore and violence of the "Blade" type stories, but the erotic Anne Rice type stories are great too.

Vampires are so appealing to so many people because they are tough bad ass mother effers and at the same time they are sensual and erotic creatures.

Blood Red Baron

I did some searching on the book: 'Bloody Red Baron"... Looks like it's out of print.... I was really wanting to read it too.... Could it have been a sequel to another book?

When reading Twilight and New Moon I was obsessed with Edward. I got so mad when Jacob came into the picture.
lol
Oooooh, a movie is coming out???
Yay.
It better be good. You can't ruin a good book with a crummy movie...I have a bad feeling about the new Eragon movie. I LOVE the Eragon books and the movie doesn't look all that great...
Jeez I'm rambling...

Heard the movie Eragon was contrived... but then again, I thought his stories kind of were too. Just my opinion though. The special effects are supposed to be mad-hat though... so it might be worth it just to gawk at cool computer techy stuff. But again, that's me. I'm sorry, now I'm rambling. Carrie you're contagious.
