I finished The Tear Collector by Patrick James. It was a very interesting twist on a vampire story- refreshing with all the other blood-sucking vampire stories out there. Instead of living off the blood of their victims, these 'vampires' collect tears without victimizing people- or do they? What would you call it when someone lures you in with sympathy and a shoulder to cry on, and it's YOUR tears they collect in order to survive- are you being hurt? Is this genuine sympathy or are they just helping to help themselves? Does it matter? Interesting questions and some very well developed characters that will draw you into the story.
