While the main story-arc about the killer was always interesting, the love-story was poor and extremely trivial. Vampire stories are quickly becoming the new Harlequine-literature for a new generation.

We've been there for a while. Witness the whole Twilight thing, Moonlight, The Vampire Diaries, etc.
