Awful, Awful, Awful |
|
this was just plain awful. I picked up the book after watching a couple of episodes of True Blood. This is one of the rare cases where the show is better than the book. The book has no plot, no character development, no allure. The only thing the book has to offer was sex. In fact, I felt as if she was shoving it down our throats. If you're interested in a true vampire love story, check out the Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer. |

4 & 5 Stars for these books? What? |
|
I'm giving this book the same review I gave the first book in the series... I'm going to give the books time to grow on me only because the show on HBO is great and I can't wait to see what happens. People keep telling me to stick with it because the later books are better reads , and I'm going to try my best, but good gosh the books are not that great. Conversations and actions are choppy, and the story just doesn't flow right. When I'm done reading the entire series and if I change my mind I will also change my review, but as of right now this series gets a 2 Star from me. |

Read with caution - This series is addictive |
I read the first in this series, "Dead Until Dark" and loved it. This installment "hooked me".
Sookie finds herself seriously attacked by a "creature" and is saved from a certain death by the vampires by a quite unusual approach. Sookie and Bill find themselves with a job to do for Eric (Bill's Vampire boss). This job takes Sookie and Bill to Dallas where they try to locate a missing vampire. They end up finding quite more than they bargained for including a church against vampires.
There's also the murder of her co-worker that she needs to get to the bottom of and she finds herself in a very interesting sitution with Eric. And he's quite different than her vampire Bill boyfriend. All I can say is "wow". I definetly want to see more of Eric. (which is surprising because I Bill is a great character, and Sookie's first love.)
Another super installment of the Southern Vampire series. If you weren't hooked after the first one, this one will definetly pull you in. |

Thanks, HBO |
|
If it hadn't been for the HBO series TrueBlood I probably never would have started this series. I enjoyed this book as much as I did the first one - Sookie is probably one of the most likable characters I've come across in ages. Charlaine Harris writes clever dialogue and I was hooked from page one. Looking forward to reading the next in the series... |

Alternate reading |

It was interesting to read so many different takes on this book. Perhaps some of you would be willing to look at some of my realistic futuristic thriller novels such as Pluto 2550 or Adam 2552. Maybe you would love a modern political, men's adventure, romance, thriller unlike no other, which is my top selling novel, The Immortal. If you dare to see a close look at the paranormal or supernatural thrillers, you might enjoy Cast out of Paradise or Kevin and the Dead. An adventure in excitement waits for you. Incidentally, I am the author, Daniel Whittman. All of these novels and more are on amazon.com. [...] |
