No, my friend just loaned me a random book she's always loved. It's about a group of college students who murder someone. That's it. :/ What I wanted was vampires. ;) And there was SO much death/immortality symbolism in the book that I was CERTAIN that at least ONE character had to be a vampire. I am hopeless, lol.
I wouldn't be too hard on Andi. For some people fandoms are a way to stay connected with LJ pals, and when your friends branch off into new territory and you don't necessarily want to follow, it can feel a little sad. I can see how some people would do posts to ask for convincing evidence why they should jump on a particular fandom bandwagon. I'm speculating that that's why she's posted, but it's just a guess. :/ Anyhow, I didn't realize it was so personal to you. Don't take it seriously, if at all possible. Like you said, it's just a show. She can take it or leave it. And you've got lots of other friends to squee with! :)
