And even when you have read the book, you still learn and figure something else new about this book. I forgot how well this book captivated the reader. Sookie soon learns that she can’t hear their thoughts and why people don’t really think about them as people. But since vampires are out of the coffin, literally, Sookie Stackhouse is finally going to learn things she never imagined. Something that she does that no one else is doing is reading people’s thoughts. She came home and spent the rest of her time with her grandmother and cat. Sookie Stackhouse had a pretty regular life. She is best known for The Southern Vampire Mysteries series, which HBO later adapted for its dramatic series entitled True Blood. Her later books have been in the urban fantasy genre. She began to write books a few years later. Through her early work consisted largely of poems about ghosts and, later, teenage angst, she began writing plays when she attended Rhodes College in Memphis, Tennessee. She now lives in southern Arkansas with her husband and three children. She was born and raised in the Mississippi River Delta area of the United States. And when one of Sookie’s coworkers is killed, she fears she’s next….Ībout the Author: Charlaine Harris Schulz is an American New York Times bestselling author who has been writing mysteries for thirty years. He hangs with a seriously creepy crowd, all suspected of–big surprise–murder.

He’s exactly the type of guy she’s been waiting for all her life….īut Bill has a disability of his own: He’s a vampire with a bad reputation. He’s tall, dark, handsome–and Sookie can’t hear a word he’s thinking. It’s just that, well, Sookie has this sort of “disability.” She can read minds. She’s quiet, keeps to herself, and doesn’t get out much. Sookie Stackhouse is a small-time cocktail waitress in small-town Louisiana. Anyway, let’s just jump into the review now, which is spoiler free, because as always, you need to check this book out. It reminded me of why I started this series in the first place. For a while now, I have been wanting to reread the whole series again. You would also know that I have read the book series for it. If you have read my blog for a while now, you would know that I am a big fan of True Blood.
