We, The Infected

If I had kids, I would have no problem with them reading this book. They see much more violent and sexual things on TV and from the internet, but in America people are... to put it bluntly, most people are stuck in the 1800s.

Is Oskar holding a picture or a mirror?

If you let them put the blood (at least the red blood cells) back into you, once you recovered, you would get a boost in physical endurance and strength. Kinda like a vampire.

Actually, that's called blood-doping, and it's banned by many pro-sports organizations.

You start saying "ja" instead of yeah/yes, and "nej" instead of no.

For example, after a long hard day at work:

Person A: You going biking today?

From what I gather, after her husband's death, there were a lot of other nobility trying to get at a piece of the Báthory's enormous wealth (and the power that came with that), so it isn't beyond imagination that Liz was fitted-up.

I saw LMI first, and I though it was great, of course, but after seeing LTROI, I don't see why they decided to make Abby pure female. I think when you find out Eli is a boy is a crucial part of the story, and makes the relationship...

Super Mario World; I'm sure Eli would've loved playing and finding all the little secrets in this game. The Legend of Zelda also. In the book Eli enjoys pretending to fight with swords, I'm sure he would've loved to play this game. I also used to love playing Mortal Kombat II and Killer Instinct tha...

In my opinion it doesn't matter what a fox or a hare might think, had they been equipped with that ability. Vampires, Eliform or not, are fictional creatures, and one can put into them whatever one wants. So if someone prefers Eli to be a predator who doesn't have any qualms about his actions, that...

This was probably brought up in this thread but I couldn't find it. If it was, I am sorry. When Eli met the women vampire, and she explained that there weren't many that she knew of, I can only assume that in this case most people who were turned into vampires couldn't handle the guilt and killed t...
