Okay, it is possible that I have overdosed on vampire stories. Have you?

Yes. I have gotten to the point of eyerolling every time I walk into a bookstore or see a tv promo for another vamp show. Though, I did think of one series you might enjoy. The Morganville Vampire stories, by Rachel Ward. It's a YA series, so, it does not contain all the, erhm, mushy bits that you'd find in Laurell Hamilton or True Blood. I think there are 5 or 6 in the series at this point, but they're short books and pretty well written. They don't romance the vamps up, and the protagonist is smart.

To spite how lame I think it is, I adore vampires and run the risk of getting addicted to this stuff.
However…
Give me Anne Rice any day! I don't like these half assed new breeds.

That is nuts. I read Vampire Diaries years ago as a kid. When I first posted on Twilight I mentioned these books as useful in that they are like Twilight just not nearly as good, showing how easily things could have gone wrong for Twilight. Recently I saw VD in the book store. I figured someone was taking advantage of Twilight to do a reprint but making a movie is taking this a bit too far.
