Best one in the series! Easy read, Eric comes center stage for sure. A Bill fan no longer am I.
You know the worst thing about these books? They're like cotton candy. On face they look incredibly filling and satisfying but then you bite into them and the fluffy candy mass turns into so much sugar and you're just as hungry when you're finished as you were when you started. Except now you're out of money and your mom wants you to ride the Ferris wheel with your little sister.I've devoured all seven of the Sookie books and now I want more, except there aren't any more. Yet. No one should conf...
OK, so I love the HBO series "True Blood" and wanted to learn more, so, like a fool, I went to Amazon.com and bought a specially priced box set of the first 7 books. What. A. Mistake.The first two books of the series, "Dead Until Dark" and "Living Dead in Dallas" were passable. The author certainly has a great imagination, which is the foundation of great storytelling.But the main character, Sookie Stackhouse, telepathic waitress from Bon Temps, LA., is an unbearable, anti-feminist, hypocritical...
3.5 stars. The summit was interesting and the mystery was intriguing, but the actual climax and ending felt a bit convoluted and abrupt. Anxious to see the aftermath!
Snooze fest. The avalanche of characters and the painful descriptions of the wedding just came so ridiculous, and I had to skip many pages. I am not the biggest fan of Quinn -- so that could be my reluctance to this book. I just wish Sookie would go to Eric and stop fighting her feelings.
Its always more difficult to write a review for a book the deeper you get into a series. All Together Dead is the 7th book in Sookie Stackhouse series(True Blood) so I'm at a loss as to what to say about this book. So I'll just give a few small things I noted in this book.1) Very little Bill 2) Bill is still the worst3)Not enough Eric4)Sookie is still irresistible to all men for some reason5)Lots of death and violence If you like the series then I think you'll continue to like this installment.
**POSSIBLE SPOILERS**Again, I have to mention that this series is in desperate need of a decent editor. I mentioned this in my review of Book 5 (Dead as a Doornail): "Jason's boss is Shirley (Catfish) Hennessey in Book 4, but in Book 5, all of a sudden he's Shirley (Catfish) Hunter. What?!?" In Book 7, we're now back to a version of Hennessey, although it's misspelled as "Hennessy". This series as a whole, is interesting, mysterious and sexy. I feel the need to find out where this is all going,
2019 Re-ReadAnother evening, another Sookie Stackhouse book. At least I managed to cook some dinner last night, although my kitchen is still a mess. I have to find a way out of this groove I have found myself in—there are other things I need to be reading and other tasks that need my attention. But I may only find the way out by finishing up this series as a re-read.I’ve always felt that this is the book where Sookie proves that she has good judgment—she seems to understand the plots and conspir...
5 All Together Dead Stars Well, well Sookie gets herself into some pretty crazy predicaments. I have to say I really liked the Vampire Summit, and how Sookie helps and gets put into some danger. Quinn the shifter is yummy and I liked that he seems to really be in lust with her and she with him. Andddd then poof Erik comes into play and they end up getting closer than they were. Sookie is starting to hear Vampire brains and that can be verrry dangerous for her if anyone finds out. Although I love...
(B+) 76% | GoodNotes: With more scope and exposition, it's a sort of locked-room mystery (not really) solved by speculation and conjecture.
So, there's a big event that has a lot of protesters who want to kill all of the people at the event. All of the people attending this event are staying at the same hotel which supposedly has great security, because, again, there are crazies who literally would LOVE to kill everyone in attendance. Soon after arrival, each and every party gets a phone call from the management of the hotel saying that there is an extra piece of luggage that belongs to them and they need to come down and pick it up...
This is my favorite book in the whole Sookie Stackhouse series. It's so different and I love Eric in this story.Sookie has to fly to Dallas, I think, for a convention of Vampires where she has to help save the Vampire Queen Sophie-Anne, by listening in to all the humans. She meets the Bellboy, who can also hears voices. There are plots everywhere and it's all tied together thickly. Sookie is still dating Quinn, the were-tiger. Sookie is always in danger. She uses logic and her gifts to figure ou...
My absolute favorite Sookie stackhouse to date. A lot of stuff happens in this book, but towards the end the action is great and goes somewhere you weren't really sure Ms. Harris would take you. Sookie travels to a Vampire Summit with Queen Sophie-Ann's entourage, which lends to some hilarious moments with different vamps and the fangbangers at their side. Like I said before, there is a lot more action then in previous books which is just exciting. Plus Quinn and Eric play for sookie's interest....
I quite enjoyed this book, although it did remind me a bit of ‘Living Dead in Dallas’ where Sookie is also asked to go with the vampires to use her telepathic abilities, and finds another telepath called Barry, who also shows up in this one.This book was a bit slow and heavy-going in places, but I still enjoyed it, and I liked the unexpected twist at the end, as I really didn’t see it coming! (view spoiler)[ Who knew that the Fellowship would blow up the hotel, leaving loads of vampires burned o...
3 StarsO.W.L.S - Career AurorTransfiguration - Includes Shape ShiftingIs it too much to ask to just see a teeny tiny glimpse of Alcide?!So... some thoughts I have:- Pam gave me life in this book, you can see how funny she really is and it was fun to see a different side to her- More Eric, BIG fan!- The whole vampire hotel was interesting - I'm sick of people being on their high horse... just STOP- Quinn is just so meh, like you have all of these very interesting characters who are desperate for
Yet another of the thrilling adventures of prize bitch Sookie Stackhouse. She is certainly on form. There are half a dozen pointless descriptions of the characters’ outfits and a horrendously awful sex scene in the first 30 pages alone. Sookie continues to bitch about every other woman’s sex life and fashion sense, despite the fact that in both cases her own are questionable at best. Meanwhile what plot there is slowly stutters into life. Sookie travels to Rhodes with various ‘supes’, giving her...
If i pray every night, and hang around with humans, and leave the Weres alone, i'll be okay. Murder,court,law,lies,bombs,bloood... It would have been more help to me if he'd come ten minutes earlier... or not at all. Useless as always. Is Quinn supposed to be interesting and are we supposed to care about his relationship with Sookie? And i thought that her relationship with Bill was boring.I feel like the start wasn't THAT strong but i was really invested after like 100-150pages. It was a f
Still very entertaining, but I was disappointed by her adding creatures from another dimension that could become invisible. It was a bit too much for me. The parts could have been handled by other supernatural creatures without going so far afield. It went too far beyond the scope of the world she's created without a good reason.Also, the setup by the Fellowship was too transparent & unrealistic. The security lapses were just too gross & the scheme was ludicrous. I did like finding out more abou...
This one again culminates in a battlefield of a climax. I suppose Bill will no longer be part of the bizzarro love triangle, as Quinn the were-tiger (lame) debunks Bill. Eric is still a contender though...Anyway, this one seemed a bit smaller a story than the others... probably because it all takes place in a hotel. The vamp summit is, of course, very eventful and the story continues with alligences being switched left and right and new characters developing while others are mercilessly killed o...
Yet another well done book by Charlaine Harris. It had all the familiar faces and a ton of new characters being developed, and always lots of sexy, ridiculous drama.
