The Most Recent Phenomenon Called Vampire Books

By Jeman Duff


The most recent phenomenon in fantasy fictional works, regardless of whether they be in books, movie, or a TV show, deals with the theme of vampires. Yes, we've had horror classic stories during the 1800s including Bram Stoker's Dracula. We've also had Dracula movies every few years. But this theme has actually gained popularity in the last decade, especially after the Twilight series of Stephenie Meyer came out.

From that point on, you will find vampire themes in the majority of recent releases within the Young Adults category. There is something about the vampire character in the more popular vampire books that really adds mystery and intrigue in the storyline.

An additional favorite author who writes vampire books is Charlaine Harris, and her books are better known to be the Sookie Stackhouse novels due to her main character, Sookie Stackhouse. What makes her special from the other lead characters in other books is her ability to hear what other individuals are thinking in their thoughts.

This particular character finds this skill really very tiring since all she actually desires to do is always to live a normal life as an average barmaid in a sleepy town in Louisiana. The twist in the plot comes in when she sees the only one person whose mind she can't read, and that will be Bill Compton, who happens to be a vampire.

The Sookie Stackhouse novels appeal to various young girls of today in that she has a humble character that only desires to adapt but instead can't help to become unique and end up being the center of attention. In the real world, lots of girls like this character because it provides them the thrilling excitement in the thought that thrilling things can occur even to barmaids such as Sookie and that youngsters who're special, be it with the ability to read thoughts or have vampire-like traits, do get acknowledged regardless of their distinctiveness.
