How Does Twilight Stack Up Against True Blood?
Charlaine Harris Books
First off, apologies if you have tried to visit the CharlaineHarrisBooks.com website this morning (11th June). I had a few bugs to iron out so there is a bit of an overhaul happening on it, much to my dismay. Trust me though, I will work day and night if need be to get my “baby” up and running again!
story lines ranging from the arrival of Hadley, Sookie’s lesbian cousin, who will also be seduced into the vampiral world. However, unlike her telepathic cousin Sookie (Anna Paquin), Hadley will not be seduced by Bill (Stephen Moyer) but none other than the vampire queen. But forthose of you who loved Lafayette Reynolds (Nelsan Ellis) comical lines, don’t worry there will be morecomical aspects this season. Such as, newly teen vamp Jessica (Deborah Ann Woll) who doesn’t want to play by the rules and the spiritually enlightened sex-crazed, recovering
v-addict Jason Stackhouse (Ryan Kwanten in photo).
For those of who think this is just a mere imitation of “Twilight”, you are sadly mistaken. “True Blood” unlike “Twilight” isn’t about self-flagellation and abstinence. “True Blood” gives into all the lust and corporal pleasures.
Harris’ world is much more nitty-gritty, with
vampire blood being used as an aphrodisiac and sexual relations between
humans and vampires being considered another delicious taboo in this
small Louisianan town. These vampires are not in hiding like those in the Stephanie Meyer’s world; no, they are fighting for their civil rights.

As the second season of True Blood has started I am more excited for Nelsan Ellis’s role I love him, I think the show would be the same without Layfaette.

Hello and thanks for your comment!
His role really brings a lot of comedy the show. I’m glad how Alan Ball gave more personality and complexity to Nelsan than what was given to him in the books. Guess the show really wouldn’t be the same without him and that is why they didn’t kill him off like in the book. I guess his role will take a whole new turn (seems he is on his way to becoming a vamp?). Mmm we expect good things from Nelsan Ellis.
