Visit our Sookie Stackhouse series feature page.

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.

    I read the series to tie me over from season 2 to season 3 of True Blood, I've yet to read the latest book. the tv series does follow the book a bit but they're different enough for me that I enjoy both. I found that some parts get a little long winded when the author starts describing a character, she's goes into a lot of detail down to the brand, style, and model of the shoes and what not. There's quite a few relatively descriptive sex scenes so this is definitely one for the adults.
    Overall if you enjoy the tv show that I would say to give this series a try, if you are insanely against spoilers I would avoid it like the plague. Eventhough the tv show and books are a little different a lot of big story features such as Sookie being a fairy and the introduction of witches still are the same.

    Okay, if you love True Blood, you'll understand why I decided to pick up this book series and give it a whirl!

    While very different from the show (some of the characters have very different roles in the book than the show, and vice versa), Charlaine Harris' writing style keeps you intrigued and wanting to keep reading.

    The books sell separately and in box sets, I purchased the box set with the first 8 books:

    Dead Until Dark, Living Dead in Dallas, Club Dead, Dead to the World, Dead as a Doornail, Definately Dead, Altogether Dead and From Dead to Worse.

    There are further books after the box set I've purchased, which I have not read yet, so I cannot vouch for those books, but if they are anything like the ones I've read so far, they are amazing.

    You have to be open minded when reading this series, as it does involve alot of supernatural characters. There is some sexuality in the book, so young readers might not be ready for these.

    Some people i have spoken to thoroughly enjoy the show, but dislike the bookset. I like both, so I suppose it depends on the readers personal opinion.

    I believe if you are looking for something fun, adventurous and exciting to read, these are the books for you!
