Book Blogger Hop: Nov 16-21, 2012

Book Blogger Hop 

This week's Book Blogger Hop is hosted by Butterfly-o-Meter Books and asks the following question:


Mix’n'Match: The bookish gods are giving you free hand, you can pick any one character (book, TV series/movie, play etc) and inject them into a different novel of your choice. Which character and series would you mix’n'match?



Well, I've thought of a couple of mixes and they all involve vampires, oddly enough, but my ultimate choice is this:  I would love to see Eric Northman from the Sookie Stackhouse Series in the Twilight books.  He would totally kick the crap out of all the Cullens.  No offense to Twihards, but sparkling vampires?  Ew.  Maybe Twilight, etc, was just too sweet for me, but I enjoyed Eric's thrill of the kill and general mayhem.  Love me some vikings!

On a similar thread, I would also like to insert the author of the Sookie Stackhouse novels, Charlaine Harris, into the TV show True Blood so that a) maybe it will make sense, b) it will follow the books and c) it will make sense.  Oh, did I repeat myself?  Because really season 5, what happened?

  2. Hahaha. I love it. I would like to see Eric Northman on The Vampire Diaries. He'd totally kick some ass there, too. I love Eric Northman. :-)

  3. Thanks for stopping by my Friday Blog Hop! That's cool we had the same answer, I LOVE Eric! I agree with you about the last season of True Blood, I love the show but it just got too muddled and weird. New follower =)

    1. I've been in love with Eric since book 4. BEST BOOK.

      I'm ready to give up on True Blood. I shouldn't have to watch a show and think WTF the entire time.

      Thanks for the follow - I'm following back.

  5. My first thought when I saw this question was to put Buffy the Vampire Slayer into the Twilight books, so we're on the same wavelength here, lol. (No offense to the Twilight fans!) Have great weekend!

    1. As entertaining as the Twilight books were, they can't touch Buffy or Sookie.

      Thanks for stopping by!

  6. I only saw the first three seasons of True Blood before our HBO got canceled, but I heard that it got really weird.

    Thanks for stopping by!

    1. Season 4 should have been the best since book 4 was the best (IMHO), but they didn't do it justice. And season 5 was just a hot mess. I think I'm done with True Blood now.

      Have a great weekend!

  7. I am not a vampire or twilight fan. I'm sure by your answer they would make a fun mix. I didn't play along this week, because I just couldn't think of an answer to the question. I think I am probably to old to play mix and match or whatever.

    Thanks for the visit today, always glad to hear from you.
