Club Dead

The Sookie Stackhouse series kicks into high gear with the third novel.  Inserting a third potential mate for Sookie in the form of Werewolf Alcide and some shady character deficiencies to Vampire Bill really put the relationship and romance in question, adding a nice backdrop to the non-stop action and danger Sookie finds herself in Jackson.

These books have already been in the variety of "can't put down" but Club Dead truly keeps the reader glued to the page.  The best i've read yet.  Can't wait to dive in deeper as this series really gains some steam.

Living Dead in Dallas

Continuing the fun that started in Dead Until Dark, with some nicely added twists and characters that should set up some great future installments. Having watched True Blood season 2 before reading this, i'd have to say i was a little bored following one story line, but the books really bring Sookie's personality front and center.

Dead Until Dark

Every bit as funny, frightening and sexy as the show True Blood, which is based on this series. I enjoy the mashing of genres and the authenticity of the characters and their actions. Goes to places the TV show doesn't, in a way that is equally enjoyable. A rare occurrence where each medium explores the same content but uses their diverse techniques to bring out the best of what's at its core. A delicious treat that's none too serious, but riveting and engaging.
