Product Description:
Sookie Stackhouse is just a small-time cocktail waitress in small-town Louisiana. Until the vampire of her dreams walks into her life-and one of her coworkers checks out....
Maybe having a vampire for a boyfriend isn't such a bright idea.
A fun, fast, funny, and wonderfully intriguing blend of vampire and mystery that's hard to put down, and should not be missed. (Susan Sizemore)
Praise for Charlaine Harris:
Harris writes neatly and with assurance. (New York Times Book Review)
An author of rare talents. (Publishers Weekly)

"Summer Read" in my mind means overdone sex, campy mystery, and humor.
From prior reviews I expected a mix of Evanavich's Stephanie Plum character and Meyer's Bella character but that's not what I got.
I bought the whole series but will probably not read them.

I've watched TrueBlood on HBO and am a huge fan, but I have to say that I actually enjoy the book more than the series. I would recommend it to anyone who likes books by Janet Evanovich, but wants a supernatural spin. The characters are believable and the ending's a real surprise. Read it!

While this book is written on about a 7th grade level, the subject matter is mature. The writing was dull, the characters shallow and at times I found myself thinking "Why am I still reading this?" Because I try to always finish a book when I start it, I pushed myself through hoping it would get better, but alas, it only got worse.

She lives with her grandmother and cat and keeps to herself because she desires silence after hearing other people's thoughts while working. Sookie is intrigued when she meets Bill, her first vampire, not only because he's a vampire but because she can't read his thoughts. Sookie ... Read More

I bought this book after watching the first two episodes of True Blood and could not wait until the next week to see what happens. It did not disappoint. I found the series did follow the book with a few slight exceptions. The book took me deeper into Sookie and Bill and by the end of the first three chapters I was off to the book store to make sure I had the second book. It was a very quick read and I enjoyed it.
