A book I have read involving vampires.
I find myself rather a fan of Jim Butcher's Dresden Files, an excellent series. However. though it involves vampires, it is not exclusively about them. Another book I rather enjoyed--"Peeps". It's about a sort of vampirism, caused not by the desire to become eternally pretty and glitter in the sun, but by a form of parasite. The book is an interesting blend of fact and fiction, intermittently breaking from the story to describe some vile sort of real parasite.
A third book: "The Holmes-Dracula File." This is old school. This is true vampirism, suave and intelligent and unspeakably monstrous, just human enough to lure forth victims, evil enough to be aware of its role and its purpose without the merest idea of regret. If you can find a copy of this book, read it.
