does anyone else read the Sookie Stackhouse books?
I finished Deadlocked last night and was really pleased. While these books have never been literature, the writing has really suffered lately. and i think we are edging closer to the natural conclusion of things that I have been rooting for from the beginning.
Re: does anyone else read the Sookie Stackhouse books?
I am listening to it now on Audible. I am kind of happy to see it coming to a close. I love the series but I feel like it has run its course.
I read them all (except for the latest - wait, there's a new one??!?!?), and I'm torn. Books one through three were TERRIBLE. Like hardly readable. I only finished them because the friend who gave them to me PROMISED me that they would get better starting in book four. And they did...but barely.

I enjoyed the first few but the later ones have been horrible. It sounds like this latest one might be worth picking up.
ETA: Because I'm in writing nazi mode.

I read them, but in paperback so that they all match, so I'm only on Dead Reckoning.
Also, I love Eric and Quinn and I'm still peeved that Claudine bit it.
there must be a Quinn short story out there, b/c the events of it are referenced in the latest book. i hate all the stupid short stories. ETA: google again. it's in the "novella" Small Town wedding, which is in the sookie stackhouse companion. whatever.
Thank you for googling for me.
I will be reading this short story at the bookstore. I have no need for a stackhouse companion book. Not even for Quinn.
I read them all up until Dead Reckoning or whatever (the one that came out last year.) I wasn't spending that much for it in hardcover and then getting it in paperback slipped my mind.
I read them super fast and back to back (in the days after the bar exam, before I was employed....read all Stephanie Plum, Sookie Stackhouse and a few other similar books lol) so they all blend together for me now. Some of the were definitely way worse than others.
I love Stephanie Plum! Ranger is a fox in my mind. Rawr!

as it takes me 3 hours or less per book to read, totally doable.
I DO have a goal of reading 112 books in 2012. It's just making sure some of them are Sookie Stackhouse that I need to remember. :-P

Nah, cause you know you read them and they didn't make you feel like you wasted any time. They're good throw-away, give your mind a break, books.
