Of vampire oversaturation that is.
Because I just realized that I'm starting my THIRD BOOK IN A ROW featuring vampires, none of which I picked up for vampires.
Crashing Paradise thought process: "OH! New menagerie book! Super badass urban fantasy superheroes!"
Canon thought process: "Must...have...non...perfect...saccharine...princess...heroine...must...have....CHIKA SHIOMI BOOK!"
Dark Lover thought process: "
magicnoiresays they're like Dark Hunters, only on steroids or crack or something...I shall read the first one now."
And...vampires had NOTHING to do with my getting any of these...I started reading the menagerie books because I was recced them as dark urban fantasy superheroes, Canon based on my loving Night of the Beasts, and Dark Lover because I ended up with books later in the series at the booksale, and
magicnoirerecced them.
Also, i am only on the first page of Dark Lover,reading the glossary, and already disappointed. After much "blah blah cool blah blah badass blah blah tough blah blah" buildup, it say's this: "They may be killed only by the most serious of wounds, e.g., a gunshot or stab to the heart, etc." Wwwhhhaaaatttt? As sold to me and described on the jacket and rest of the entire, I expect gunshots and stab wounds to be shrugged off save for when True Love's Healing Hands plot contrivances are called for. *mumbles about stab wounds and gunshot wounds not hurting the Dark Hunters*
