Boring

Pop culture is boring right now. Yeah, Heather Locklear got arrested, and yeah Kanye West and Shia LaBeouf got off scot-free, and yeah Meg Ryan called Dennis Quaid a cheater. And I can’t really be curmudgeonly about the dudes who almost died in the plane crash–that would just be mean.

So, I’ve been reading. A friend turned me on to the Black Dagger Brotherhood books, and I’m loving them. They are paranormal romances, so they are full of angst and sex. I like them better than the Twilight books, mainly because the characters are adults. Teen angst is fun, and the Twilight books are an enjoyable read. But, grown-up angst and hot sex scenes are even better. I man, come on, who didn’t prefer Valley of Horses over Clan of the Cave Bear simply because of the sex? Clan was a better story, but Valley introduced sex that was pleasurable for women. And we Cro-Magnon gals need pleasurable sex. Those Neanderthal women just didn’t know what they were missing when they blindly complied with “the gesture.” (What is Jean Auel up to these days? Does she still write books about Ayla?)

There has been talk of making a movie out of the Black Dagger Brotherhood books. I would watch that, as long as they get the right men for the parts. I know that Stephenie Meyer says she is all in support of the kid they cast as Edward, but he is not attractive enough for my interpretation of Edward. We need some really hot guys for BDB. Danny Trejo comes to mind for Zsadist. He has the look and the ability to convey a strong sense of menace, and like Benicio Del Toro (who is mad sexy even though he is not the most conventionally attractive guy), he looks like he might know how to handle himself in the boudoir. Any other thoughts?
