I looked at Bones and it was almost as if scales dropped from my eyes, because suddenly I did see him. Those high cheekbones, dark brows framing eyes turned to emerald, a curving mouth, straight nose, and etched jawline. Crystal skin stretched over those features and tightly wrapped around a lean, rippled frame. His elegant hands and their long, tapered fingers. My God, he was beautiful. Absolutely, incredibly beautiful, and now that I'd finally allowed myself to notice, I couldn't stop staring. ["Halfway to the Grave", Jeaniene Frost]
I really, really like this book, but some parts just read as if written by Stephenie Meyer. Why, WHY do all vampires have to look like demigods? They, too, were once normal human people. Becoming undead isn't like plastic surgery, for chrissake. *is amused*
Then again, it's the protagonist's love interest, so this is probably more due to her slightly Sue-ish character. XDDD
