Saw Something Borrowed last night...wasn't bad! I haven't seen a romantic comedy in a long time.

An episode of Being Human I think. If that doesn't happen, maybe a random Criminal Minds episode.

Title: Kiss of Death Author: Rachel Caine Book Description (amazon.co.uk) Claire Danvers has a few things on her mind. First of all there is the laundry, which is now an unfortunate shade of pink. Then there is her boyfriend, Shane, who is never too far from her thoughts. Finally there is her best friend Eve's relationship problems. As if life as a student wasn't complicated enough, Claire just happens to be studying in Morganville. A town run by vampires. Trouble seems to follow Claire and her friends like a shadow and tonight is no exception to the rule. They must find the most difficult documents for a vampire to acquire; people passes that will allow 'bad ass' Morley and his friends to leave Morganville. But it's proving incredibly difficult, and with the odds seemingly stacked against them, the biggest question of all is...Will they survive? Personal Note Book 8 of the series and I'm sad to know that I'm coming closer to the end of this. I read it in a day and imediatelly started book 9 which I am already halfway through. What I particularly enjoyed about this one is that the plot was completely different than the books before. What I didn't like? Eve - she's a character I'm starting to really get annoyed with. She's become whiny and selfish and she's changed a lot (for the worse in my opinion) since the first book. I need to recommend this series again if you enjoy vampire books - the plot is original, the characters are well written and it has many volumes so far, keeps you entertained for a while!

I agree with this prediction Honestly I prefer Damon and although I can't really see him with Elena for real (relationship wise), I do hope he finds someone who can put up with how he is.

Thanks for the explanation, I was also curious and meant to ask! And wow the titles are...long.

Oh, once you are done interrogating people, please come back and let me know what you have found I did find the book I was talking about, but unless you all of a sudden know Romanian, it's not very helpful!

The only book in English I read that was theory based is the one in my thread. I read a couple Romanian books at Uni, but not many as we didn't cover much during our course. There was a book called Juvenile Delinquency or something like this, which was also theory based and I thought it was quite good. It was a short introduction, but I don't remember if it was a Romanian author that had it out, I'll try and find it

Title: The Struggle (The Vampire Diaries) Author: L. J. Smith Book Description (amazon.co.uk) Torn between two vampire brothers Damon: determined to make Elena his, he’d kill his own brother to possess her. Stefan: desperate for the power to destroy Damon, and protect Elena, he gives in to his thirst for human blood. Elena: the girl who can have anyone finds herself in the middle of a love triangle . . . one that might turn deadly. Personal Note I found it a very difficult read simply because it was boring! As I said with the first volume in the series, I had higher expectations, because the TV show is so well done. In the end though, I just can’t like any of the characters in this book. I think for once I don’t feel a connection with a young-adult book at all. I can’t get into the teenage drama and Stefan just annoys me. All in all, I didn’t like the book and I’ve given up on this series. I know there are two more books to be read, but I just can’t read anymore of this.

Even with Damon there I just couldn't get into the books at all...although yes, Damon did make things better - possibly because I have the actor who plays Damon in the TV show in my head

Do you have any recommendations on serial killer books? Most of the reading that I've done has been online, but I prefer actual books. The problem that I've found with just randomly picking up books at the library is that a lot of the time, even if they're in the "true crime" section, they're not that well researched/feel like a fiction story. Also, that Cult Fiction list... wow
