Okay...
As some of you know, that darn vampire kit has lodged into my mind and will not let go. The big problem with this thing, is that I am not a vampire fan, and so know very little about the creatures.
I like them well enough...I am absolutely in love with Bill (TRUE BLOOD) for instance, but I never watched Angel (I might though--but then again, maybe I won't so I won't be influenced by him lol), I wallbanged Twilight (is Edward REALLY a vampire? I wonder), I've not read anything but Interview with a Vampire and not sure that counts...okay so I did read Dracula years ago, but I assume times have changed, and, well, vampirism is something I've never really sunk my teeth into.
It will NOT be a romance, TYVM. My POV is not going to fall into the arms of her dark love...uh...no thanks.
So...
What do YOU guys like in your vampires? And dislike, too--like sparkles. Sparkly vampires do not do a thing for me.

Date: 2008-12-09 08:53 pm (UTC)Exactly. And, I don't picture this contemporary at all, either...the vampire kit that started this all is circa 1850. I know little about that time period...heck all my studying has been around the 1600's. That's too long ago. LOL.
I think I'm going to snag the Barbra Hambly that was recommended. I am pretty sure I have the GRRRM vampire book on my shelf.
