Last week a good friend jumped me and gushed enthusiastially about an HBO vampire series she'd just discovered and streamed all 5 episodes online the night before.
I was dubiuous....until I watched a trailer online and realized that if the people that brought us Six Feet Under had moved from the dead to the undead then it couldn't be all bad.
I did wee bit of research online about this TRUE BLOOD thing and discovered the show is based on a series of books by Charlaine Harris, the first being DEAD UNTIL DARK.
The book (series) arrived in the post today and I am about done reading volume one.
This is NOT *shudder* Twilight.
It's also not Laurell K Hamilton nor Anne Rice either.
So far it IS just sexy & fun and a murder mystery too!
....tomorrow it's going to be really cold. I think I'm going to find a warm corner and read book 2. :)
