Dead to the World [antikvár]

I FOUND THE NOTE TAPED TO MY DOOR WHEN I GOT home from work. I'd had the lunch-to-early-evening shift at Merlotte's, but since we were at the tail end of December, the day darkened early. So Bill, my former boyfriendthat's Bill Compton, or Vampire Bill, as most of the regulars at Merlotte's call himmust have left his message within the previous hour. He can't get up until dark.I hadn't seen Bill in over a week, and our parting hadn't been a happy one. But touching the envelope with my name written on it made me feel miserable. You'd thinkthough I'm twenty-sixI'd never had, and lost, a boyfriend before.You'd be right.Normal guys don't want to date someone as strange as I am. People have been saying I'm messed up in the head since I started school.
