None of the books I want to read have been written.
I need a good fantasy novel, or a good vampire novel, or even just those creepy weird Tanith Lee books I used to have.

There's a fourteen hour Law & Order marathon showing on Labor Day. Rock on.

Give a try to Charlaine Harris's "Dead" series, about a barmaid in northern Louisiana who's a telepath and has a vamp boyfriend (she can't stand to date a human because she "reads" them too easily, but can stand vamps because she can't read them at all). The books (four so far) are rather less grotesque than AR or PZB's vamp stories. And she writes pretty good sex scenes, too.

Sounds a little like Frameshift in premise... though, of course, Frameshift is all SF, with a telepath getting hooked up with a geneticist quebecois with parkinsons, who tries to discover how she became a telepath... she hooked up with him because she didn't understand what he was thinking, cause he was thinking "Nice Ass" or some such in French...
