I left my beaten path (all non-horror, all the time) to read this and all I can say is I loved it. This vampire is not your Hollywood icon, s/he is grungy and smells funky. And you root for him/her at the same time you think, whoa, this is totally wrong.The writing I found really good, which was the...
I'm trying to figure out how best to talk about this one. I started reading Let The Right One In by John Ajvide Lindqvist for a book group with my girlfriends. I did not choose this one, however, I have been looking forward to it for a while. It's supposed to be the scariest, best Vampire tale. Ever...
You know, from the reviews I read, I expected this book to sink me into depression. I expected to be shaken to the depths of my soul and sent crawling into the nearest corner where I would suck my thumb, cover my head with a blanket and cry for my mommy, and regret the day when I picked books that a...
Wow! An amazing book! Keeps the vampire mythos cemented by Bram Stoker and expands on it, bringing it into the present. Some surprises and plenty of creepy mood to keep you feeling freaked out if you're reading this at night. The best compliment I can give it is this: The best vampire book I've read...
Excellent horror novel that is dark not only due to the supernatural element but for the depiction of modern life. The inhabitants of Blackeberg are directionless.

This was a very intriguing story. Lindqvist's take on the vampire is definitely one of the more unique ones I've read. I can't wait to see the movie and see how this plays out on screen. Although I'm also a little nervous, because there were some parts that make one want to avoid spaghetti. For ever...
I can't believe anyone's mentioning Twilight in any form of comparison with this, because the only thing they have in common is it deals with vampires... While I felt the story itself was kind of basic (what is original anymore?), I did like the characters, and Eli's character I found particularly i...
this book makes me feel dirty...just when i thought it couldn't get any worse...yea, it does. i thought some parts could have been cut out and the book could have been shorter. the beginning takes a while to pick up...the writing style a bit to get used to, but once you hit the first portion of the ...
