Oddly, I didn't hate either the books (the first three anyway) or the movie. They weren't great (and the fourth book is truly awful).

Sure, as traditional vampires they were unsatisfactory. But it is kind of like a dish consisting of broccoli, mashed potatoes, and pot roast. You serve it to me saying it is macaroni and cheese and I'm going to tell you it isn't very good macaroni and cheese. That doesn't mean it isn't good.

If she hadn't labeled them as vampires I think a lot of objections to the books would go away. They'd still be mediocre trash but I don't think they're awful trash.

As for Moonliner's girl, fickle is the pop cultural heart of the child.
