The book, 'Vampire Kisses' is an amazingly well written novel with a sequal called 'Kissing Coffins, and also a third novel. [One of which I don't know the name of.]
Anyway, the main character is your stereotypical Goth. It really pissed me off, because the author portreyed Goth's in a very stereotypical way. [Repetitive, sorry.] I can't even remember the main character's name, but she was CONSTANTLY wearing black, was always thinking about death and grunge metal... Hellloooo~
That.
Is.
Not.
Gothic.
The authoress made her seem like a complete poser and it just pissed me off to no end. Me and the rest of my Gothy friends read it, and we agreed the character gave the Gothic culture a bad name. Sure, she was a cool character and all, but come on! Make her more realistic, you know?
Because it's not a culture where wearing black is what gets you in. [Though it helps.] Gothic is more of a state of mind. That's how I see it. Though, through the years, the style considered as 'Gothic' has evolved in many ways; through music, clothing, attitudes, stereotypes...
I'm a more classic person, who believes that to be Gothic, you have to have the heart of a Goth.
=D
Anyway, end rant.

hasnt come out yet
I enjoy the books, but I agree. She makes that being gothic means u have to have combat boots, black sunglasses & wear them all the time, & u have to wear black lipstick all the time
but the thing that made me really mad about those books, they called bats blind! They arent blind! xp
Um, bats are blind.
They just also have sonar that allows them to HEAR where things are. That doesn't make them any less blind.
That is an urban myth, Where did you hear that bats are blind? Bats have eyesight, but it pales in comparison to their sonar abilities
Heres a sight and a quote from it http://www.wildlifedepartment.com/batfacts.htm#Is a bat blind
Is a bat blind?
"No. Bats have small eyes that are functional and sensitive to light. Eyesight helps a bat perceive its environment, but vision is not its primary navigational tool. Bats primarily navigate by using echolocation."
So there
