Christmas gifts for Twilight fans?

My two best friends have been raving about The Twilight series, I've not read them but would like to buy books for them for Christmas in a similar style.

Neither of them have read much of the horror genre although one has read The Witching Hour by Anne Rice and some of the vampire novels.

Any suggestions? My horror reading has tended to be more Stephen King/Clive Barker/Somtow which I'm not sure will appeal!

And I don't trust those crazy list makers on Amazon

Hi
You could try the sookie stackhouse series of books by Charlaine Harris. The first of these books has just been made into a tv series on channel 4. Has similar themes to twilight ie vampire romance, but is a lot more adult in content. The first book in the series is Dead until dark.

PC and Kirsten Cast House of Night series

Marilyn Kaye Gifted series

Rachel Caine Glasshouses series

all popular with Twilight fans here.

Thanks for your responses, will check them out now.

Han26 - when you say adult in content, is that extra sex, extra horror or both?!

extra both- there is a lot of sex in it and more people die

what about that glittery white dildo that you put in the freezer,mentioned on another post can't stop laughing about that...

DarrellRivers · 10/12/2009 19:05

Anne Rice is very good though (read them years ago before the whole vampire thing became OTT en-vogue
Am hoping for Jacob myself with no shirt

Thanks for this thread - was looking for some inspiration and found Charlaine Harris's 3 book anthology for £9 at book depository - so thats another gift sorted - but anyone got any ideas of something to go alongside the book - vampire themed?

8oreighty · 10/12/2009 19:58

I didn't really get the jacob thing, then saw new moon...pheweee....
