they are going away from the books now. laguerta doesn’t go past book 1 and doakes doesn’t go past book 2. on tvdexter they seem to be charaters that will be around for a while.

the tvdexter writers are taking him in a different direction and it seems a very interesting direction.

rita and the kidlets are different in the book and dexter is colder and less sympathetic. when i read the books i wondered what would happen if dexter met mallory of carol o’connell’s books. both very scary mains.
