NaBloPoMo 2021.16 Discovery of Witches Vampires vs Twilight Vampires vs Vampire Diaries Vampires, etc.

 I read the first book of this series a very long time ago...the Discovery of Witches book I mean. Now Tom and I are watching the TV series. It's about a witch and a sexy vampire. 

The thing with this vampire is that he doesn't have big canine teeth, at least that I've seen, and he can be out during the day without any noteworthy considerations and/or special equipment. 

Yes, this is actually a vampire and not just
your average English chap out in the sun.

I mean, I thought it was a little controversial when the Twilight vampires didn't bake like fritters during the day, but at least there was a slight issue for them. They were all glittery as you may recall and therefore could not attend school when it was sunny out.

Or take the Vampire Diaries vampires, they had to wear those fancy magic rings to be out in the sun. 

Vampire Diaries Vampires currently hawk
bourbon on Instagram and I get their ads.

These Discovery of Witches vampires are just whatevs, zero f*cks, out there mid-afternoon heat of the day kind of thing.

Recently, Tom and I finished "reading" (that's code for we listened to the audiobook) the original Bram Stoker's Dracula. This Count Dracula? Not sexy. By a long shot. 

My main takeaway from the Dracula book is that people are idiots. Everybody in that book knows there's a vampire and they know the vampire is going to kill the one woman and yet they let her sleep, alone, in the room with the big window that they know the vampire can get through. It definitely is one of those books where you yell out loud at the characters and call them names.

Anyway, we'll see how this Discovery of Witches series goes. As you probably are aware, my track record for watching whole seasons of show is subpar at best. I'm very busy, you know.
