I suffered from severe withdrawal after reading the Twilight saga. I searched the internet for books that can make the longing go away. It's either I read another book or I reread Twilight Saga for an nth time. Anyway, here are the books that I found distracting:
1. Sookie Stackhouse Series by Charlaine Harris- Definitely less Young Adult than Twilight but it is passionating. The urban fantasy world than Charlaine Harris created is more gore than romantic but you may still find yourself swooning over vampire Bill or Eric. Of course, the TV adaptation of this series is in its third season in HBO but don't get fooled because the books are very far from the TV show.
2. Beautiful Creatures- Beautifully written book of forbidden love by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl. No vampires here but the "creatures" are interesting. Story was told from the point of view of Ethan Wake, so we know what the guy is thinking of for a change.
3. Vampire Diaries- The original "vampires attending high school" story by L.J. Smith. Love triangle between Elena, the most beautiful girl in school, Stefan, the brooding vampire and Damon, the ruthless one. A little bit too yound adult for me but it hits all the spots.
4.House of Night- Boarding school vampires by P.C. Cast. I would recommend it to young adult readers. The books are a little simplistic but nevertheless engrossing.
