Looking for niche vampire book recs. I don’t want the big vampire books like Dracula or Interview or anything like that; I mean the random ones you don’t know if anyone else has heard about or maybe has heard of but never read. Series are okay, too

My friend Emily is an incredibly talented artist and crafter! She made this beautiful Pangur Bán stained glass piece that I'm proud to own, and she sells hilarious knitted dissected animals, too! Check out her shop: www.aknitomy.com/shop
Are you a knitter? She also sells patterns! https://www.aknitomy.com/shop/knitting-patterns

I’m far behind on my reading goal but I’m getting back into it and I’m realizing just how stressed and out of sorts I’ve been for a very long time. Because I missed reading. I missed the comfort of it and being in a headspace where I couldn’t even enjoy it really hit me. I didn’t realize how bad things were until I finally realized I was reading again and even if it’s a book I don’t like, it doesn’t feel like effort to do anymore.
Idk, it’s just strange to sit and realize that I was missing such a huge part of myself and finally getting back into it feels a bit like coming home
