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)
Fast Read! November 22, 2008 I got hooked on True Blood on HBO and decided I needed a little more background from Charlaine Harris. The book is great. Written as a young woman would speak and very imaginative and descriptive. I enjoyed all the twists and turns and would even consider becoming a Fang Banger if given the chance!!
Watch the HBO Show, Read the Book! November 22, 2008 I really enjoy the True Blood series and am enjoying it to the hilt. I found this book to be a great source and it was very enjoyable to read. In fact I read it in one day! Sookie Stackhouse is a waitress who becomes a girlfriend to a vampire. There are murders in her small town and no one knows who is doing them. Her grandmother and her cat are murdered and she may be next. Her brother is being accused of them and always has some connection to the murders. What to do? A very nice book and a very fun series. I will definitely read more of the Southern Vampire Series. I think Charlaine Harris has written a winner.
Dead Until Dark November 20, 2008 Charlain Harris is one of my all time favorite writers. I have read every single one of her books and have not been disappointed yet. I over looked the books for years because I couldn't get past the cover art. I know you're not supposed to judge a book by the cover, but come on these covers are ridicules for this series... I also think it has put a lot of readers off of buying the books... My husband also never wanted to read the books because of the said cover art. I finally talked him into reading the series, and he of course loved it. I have a feeling if they update the covers it would appeal to a wider group of people and her sales would sky rocket.
I Loved It November 19, 2008 I fell in love with Sookie. After reading this book I couldn't wait to get my hands on the second one. I read the whole series in a week. My favorite characters are Sookie and Eric. I look forward to seeing how these characters develop. If you are looking to escape reality for a little while this is a great series to get hooked on.
The Original. November 19, 2008 The Southern Vampire Mysteries is a must-read vampire story since Anne Rice. Forget "Twilight", considering the author has completely ripped off Charlaine Harris' beautiful tale of the supernatural. You will NOT be able to put this down. I ordered every book and every short story, reading day and night.
