Okay, so I am reading a book a day. I really need to get a life. So, I loved Bill, I am now pretty much over Bill--so 5 minutes ago. Eric can be the biggest ass and still make me swoon. Underneath all the big-scary-vampire-muscles, he is a real charmer and I am convinced he is a good guy. He has to be tough--he is the sheriff. Quinn--holy crap, how does she get so lucky? So many men and so little time. In this book, we finally find out the secret behind Sookie's allure. I was wondering how plain...

(B) 75% | More than SatisfactoryNotes: New characters are winning and the atmosphere is fun, but the story is too simple and it can't stand on charm alone.

2.5 Leave-It-a-Mystery StarsI knew better…. I knew it and I did it anyways! It’s my own fault!At first glimpse Harris’ love interests always seem like a good idea, and the hinting descriptions of Quinn in book #5 had me panting, begging for more. I mean he sounds like a taller Vin Diesel (ugh, curse you google I did not want to know he was only 5’9”. And don’t get me wrong there is nothing WRONG with being 5’9” – that’s the exact height that CQ lies to himself that he is – I just always pictured...

The sixth book in the series, and yet another round of Sookie’s astoundingly dull thoughts on the outfits, hair-colour, cars and interior décor of herself and everyone she meets. Plot-wise there’s some more mysterious attacks on Sookie to explain, another male whose sexual assault Sookie mistakes for courtship, the re-appearance of Bill’s chaetophilia and basically very little else. A character to whom we have never been introduces is killed, Sookie goes to investigate the death of another chara...

2.5 StarsThis book was all over the place. I don't think I could describe the plot of this book if you gave me 1 million dollars. It had something to do with Sookie's dead cousin.A vampire meetingSookie got yet another love interest And Bill is still THE WORST!

Hmm. Not my favorite in the series, but still a quick, fun read. I just don't really "get" Quinn (nor do I trust him...?), and also, I miss seeing more of Eric. 😂

Let me just say, right off the bat, that I had a love/hate relationship with this installment of Sookie's life. This one was another good read, story-wise, but it frustrated the hell out of me. We're steadily learning more and more about Sookie, and her life and love(s), and not all of those things are good. This book completely engrossed me, even while I was getting more and more upset with it. At times I felt myself winding up the old throwin' arm to chuck the damn thing at the wall, but that

Ack...these books are so terrible, yet so entertaining. I can't stop reading them, even though I'm mortified to admit that I like them. I was also terribly confused when I started reading this book, and even had to check to make sure that I didn't miss a book in the series somehow. Somehow Sookie's cousin, who has been turned into a vampire by her lover, the Queen of Louisiana, is murdered, but all this happens before the book starts, leaving me a bit confused. Some random thoughts on my part--I...

This series is one of the most mind-numbingly stupid things I’ve ever read. And believe it or not, I mean that to be a highly complimentary statement. Weird, I know. Before starting book number six, track down a copy of the short story titled “One Word Answer” that appears in the anthology Bite. Randomly, (and I say randomly because it’s been sitting in my house for about two years now and since I really don’t like anthologies, had very little desire to even crack the cover) so I spent the extra...

How irritating is it when you read the next book in a series, and then you realize that the story was dependent upon some short story that came in-between and you didn't read it?? No, I don't want to read the crappy short story that came before this! You're not the boss of me!Plus, Sookie is now getting involved with Quinn, whom she met once and then is thinking about sleeping with him. It's weird. She was a nice girl, virgin, until the age of 26, and now she's sleeping around with every supe...

Loved the New Orleans setting and all the excitement of the intertwining storylines. I also adore Quinn as a character and hated to find out that he isn't in the show. Im excited to read more about the Queen, she's fascinating!

The title refers to the death of the undead... or: dead forever.Sookie's cousin was a vampire that got killed for having a strong affiliation with the Vampire Queen of Louisiana (I know, I know!). This was mentioned in a book before, but now the issue comes to the forefront as does the plot of book 1, which started it all. We can now fit pieces of the puzzle together, and it makes more sense to visit the past than to keep on adding characters and intersecting storylines. Mrs. Harris obviously kn...

Review to come!

Was the imp of hell trying to bring you under his spell? . Since he was a man with a powerful protective urge, he stepped ahead of me, in front of me.So of course, we were attacked from behind. . -Do you like what you see?-You look better than a Happy Meal to a three-year-old. I loved it but it ain't as good as the previous ones. Quinn isn't really interesting and Sookie is planning on dating every supernatural being in town. i mean this bitch has a different BF in every book. what an ico

Sookie found yet another supe to shack up with, weretiger Quinn. Pretty soon she'll have been with every supernatural being in the area. But somebody seems to be trying to keep them apart, so of course Sookie's in danger again. Add to this her cousin Hadley having given everything to Sookie posthumously, and Sookie finds herself in the middle of a vampire feud with queen Sophie-Ann. This book felt a little flat. I didn't care as much for Quinn as I did for the other men in this series. Though So...

I knew it would only be a matter of time before Sookie began to annoy me a little, and this book marked the beginning of it. To be fair, though, I'm not sure it if was her so much as her interaction with Quinn that didn't sit that well with me. After the previous book, it was kind of a no-brainer that Quinn would become the next addition to Sookie's growing parade of suitors. I didn't really care for him or his relationship with Sookie. The whole "I shall compliment you at any given moment, and

I am so pleased to see Harris getting back on track! I particularly liked Eric socially assassinating Bill at the hospital! Say goodbye to your dating life, Bill...Yes, I am firmly in the Eric camp.

Rating: 4.1* of fiveThe Publisher Says: As a person with so few living relatives, Louisiana cocktail waitress Sookie Stackhouse really hated to lose one. But she never guessed that it would be her cousin Hadley—a consort of the Vampire Queen of New Orleans. After all, technically speaking, Hadley was already dead. And now, as unexpected heir to Hadley’s estate, Sookie discovers the inheritance definitely comes with a risk. Someone doesn’t want Sookie looking too deeply into Hadley’s past—or for

2019 Re-ReadYou know, I have library books that I can’t renew and that I should be reading. My kitchen is in chaos and I had cornflakes for supper last night. My to-do list is as long as my arm. And yet, I’m re-reading this series instead of doing any of that. Je ne regrette rien.This is the heart-break volume, when Sookie finds out that she’s based a lot of ideas about her life on shifting sands—and doesn’t know what is exactly true any more.“I’d been blindsided with the most painful knowledge:...

QUINN!!!!!! Need I say more???? This book loses a star for not as much Quinn as any reader could want... I like the Hadley angle though. A good new subplot line to follow with the queen.4 stars. Still fun to come back to.
