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) An author of rare talents. (Publishers Weekly)

Meh, it was ok..not sure if I'll keep reading them:
Honestly, I am only half way through this book and already I can review it. This book is just okay for me..Snookie is very immature for being in her 20's..Bill is boring and what is up with all the Gosh, and Golly Gee's? what is this, Leave it to Beaver? I'm not trying to say that I need curse words every sentence but at the same time, She's making her sound like a 10 year old from 1950. I'm not sure if I'll keep going with this series or not. Are the other ones this immaturely written?
If she was a lit major, im a brain surgeon!:
I guess the story of the book is entertaining enough. Im a pretty bog fan of the hbo show Tre Blood and decided to read the 1st book after wtaching a good chunk of the season. Although the show is enetertaing but definitly has its cheesy parts, the books is just as bad. I think the thing that really gets me is this author really is an extremely horrible writer.
Great Series:
I love the southern vampire mysteries. Charlaine Harris has created a wonderful cast of characters.
The books and the show go together!:
I love the books and the HBO show. I buy two copies of every one, one for myself and one for my husband. We read them so fast we'd never be able to share. We're not vampire fans at all but I like the characters and I don't know why he reads them. He never reads usually. That goes to show that they are pretty exceptional books.
