Erm I would actually say that Let the right one is more of a Vampire novel than a lot of the other so-called Vampire novels around at the moment. Go back to the roots: Dracula is not a very nice person. He is a monster hell bent on getting to and using Mina Harker. That namby pampy Edward Cullen dude is not a vampire. Not by a very very long shot
Cathode, I meant to mention in my post that yes, The Passage, is the start of a trilogy *slaps self on the head*
I absolutely, 100% agree. As I said earlier, I LOVE Let The Right One In. However, you have to agree that some of its themes won't have universal appeal to everyone. I know Panda from real life and I know that she is an intelligent, capable, well-read and sophisticated individual who loves vampire romances. I was simply reinforcing to a friend that this book is not your typical vampire romance. At all.
Panda, I meant no disrespect! I was just warning you before you found yourself reading something COMPLETELY unexpected.
