Dead Until Dark Book 1 of the Sookie Stackhouse series


Description:

Meet Sookie Stackhouse, a plucky waitress working in the small town of Bon Temps, Louisiana. She’s thrilled about meeting her first vampire but this is short-lived because someone (or something) has started killing several of the local women in the community.


Review:

Please keep in mind I read these books AFTER I read the Twilight series and seeing the first few episodes of True Blood. I couldn't watch the show only because the person portraying Sookie, Anna Paquin, bugs me to death. So when I read the books I had the vision of Paquin's horrible accent and acting in my head. I may be the only one who feels this way because Paquin did go on to win an Emmy. The books were better than the series. They were very fast to read through. My personal opinion (contrary to other's opinion) is that I didn't care too much for the character so I really could not connect.

Please let me know what you think of the books. Let me know why you like/dislike the books.
