Must share story about Twilight party
So there was a "Breaking Dawn" party at the local bookstore last night. One of my kids went with some friends even though they don't read the books. They just wanted to watch the show (and win Twilight-branded Godiva chocolate bars for their outrageous outfits). The theme was "prom." At least one girl came as Bella in a wedding dress, and another cross-dressed as Edward for the same occasion.

It was also covered in the local paper. Best quote:

"I like that it was written by a mom, not a writer," Maggie.., 18, said through fake fangs. "It's the perfect book. It's what everyone wants — a model boyfriend who glows. It's relatable."

P. N. Elrod's Vampire Files series can be kind of fun--vampire detective in 1930s Chicago. I will also second (or third, or whatever) the recs for Sunshine and Those Who Hunt the Night.

The Vampire Files are awesome. I haven't read Sunshine, but Those Who Hunt the Night was wonderful, and its sequel was pretty damn readable as well.

Thirded! I also recommend the semi-related Jonathan Barrett books (also by her, and in the same universe, but in the late 1700s), starting with Red Death.
