Umm, a mirror? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought that vamps don't do that.
Let me guess. We're in a hurry.

We're Literary 2: To Read Makes Our Speaking English Good
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Evidently vanity finds a way.
Oh, and did I mention the amazing singing voice that witnesses remember after several decades? And infallible taste in art? And, psychic powers! I don't remember if his eyes were an extraordinary color, or if he could talk to ponies.

So, if Vampires show up in photographs but not in mirrors (as in the Jossverse), does a photograph of a vampire reflect in a mirror?

Bound in Blood: The Erotic Journey of a Vampire
I read this! I'm pretty sure I read this...does it have two guys on the front cover? I got so excited when I saw this, I was all "Gay Vampire Snuff Porn in the library!"
And then I read it.

It's quite possibly the only vampire book I've ever not been able to finish.
I have a stack of them. I really need to take them to Half Price Books and sell 'em back.
(Speaking of vampire books I have not finished, is I, Vampire by Michael Romkey worth finishing? I got about two chapers in and was NOT compelled to keep reading.)

One of the very few books I've ever quit reading was Interview with the Vampire. I tried it out in junior high or high school, and I got forty pages in and I was so bored. I wanted to read about vampires, not...whatever the hell she was writing about instead.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Ditto. I have found Anne Rice about as readable as stale kedgeree from day one. She compels me to nothing but annoyed yawns, resentment of time I will never get back, and a fervent desire to smack her until she agrees to let a competent editor deal with her stuff.

I actually like The Vampire Lestat and Queen of the Dammed better than Interview.
