I finally got to this book, which is the first in the Sookie Stackhouse series (the books that True Blood is loosely based on), after over a year of hemming and hawing ( Read more... )

On Books: I mainly read adult fantasy/sci-fi novels, leaning more towards fantasy than sci-fi, but haven't read any new ones in a long while due to most of the plot being so similar.
