"Like you some muslim Buffy with a dick!"
o1. Ah! I have been horrible at LJ this past week! I apologize. My excuse is that I worked a bit longer hours (which is good for money) and....ok TBH, it's 97% this guy's fault:

ooo Eric gets jealous? I haven't seen any of that yet but I'm really excited for it!
I like the Alcide storyline in general but I just don't like that it's ON TOP of everything else, you know?
I have a question though! I was googling something about the books the other day and I ended up on the Sookie Stackhouse wikipedia page and it listed the fairies as her cousins. So after being mildly annoyed about being spoiled I thought, "Is that why all the magical creatures want her so badly, because she's part-fairy?" Is it? Because I would almost forgive all the love interests if this was part of the reasoning behind it. Or am I just reaching?
lol, I think should clarify the douche thing. I meant it more like..you know how the HIMYM characters call Ted a douche? They mean it almost affectionately (personally, I love Ted for being a douche, ha). It's just because he's so sappy/sentimental/ridiculous...all things that are true of book 4!Eric.
Book 4!Eric is actually a really similar character to TVshow!Bill. I guess I just didn't like that CH had to basically make Eric someone else in order for Eric/Sookie to happen. Eric treated her better than most people prior to book 4 anyway, he was just a bit more crude.
I think I would have enjoyed the book more if his sense of humor was still there. Because then I could still feel like deep down he was the same guy. I think a better writer than CH might have been able to pull it off actually. So it's possible that if they do the storyline on the show it could really work for me.
At the end of book 4 Eric just overdoses on "my lover". I didn't mind it that much the first or second time...but by the 10th I was like "OK YOU CAN'T POSSIBLY BE SERIOUS?!" lol
I adore Sam in the books! He's such a sweetheart, but not in a cheesy way. I like that Sam has been around a bit more in book 5 than usual!
OK SKINS!
1. Effy kind of bugs me. I loved her in s1 but after she started talking my love for her dropped dramatically, haha. I wouldn't go as far to say that I dislike her, but she's defintiely not my favorite.
2. I also really don't like Effy/Freddy. I found them totally blah.
3. Cassie annoyed me a lot in s2. I hate saying that because I was a bit obsessed with her in s1 but it's true.
4. Ok, I think I just have to get this 1 off of my chest. I really like Chris/Jal but...I don't ship them even half as much as the whole fandom does. It's like I enjoyed watching them, but I don't know if I'd ever want to read Chris/Jal fic.

Yes, that's part of the reason why supes like her so much.
Oh okay. I see what you're saying. I love douchey Ted too!
Book 4!Eric is actually a really similar character to TVshow!Bill. Really? I've never thought of it this way. Hmm, I can see similarities now. Yes! I'm sad that so much of Eric's personality had to be gone for Eric/Sookie to happen in that way. But I hoped it would be turned more into a catalyst for their relationship.
Sam is such a sweetheart! Like I said, I love those unrequited love - friend relationships so I ship Sam/Sookie a little bit. For Sookie's ever changing love life, I'm always rooting for Sam or Eric.
I agree with all those opinions except maybe 3. I still maintained my love for Cass even if she was a little annoying. Also, I feel you on 4. I love love Chris and Jal is a great character. I was glad to see them happy and together but I didn't have half as much love as fandom does for them.

Cassie is still my favorite characters by far out of the original cast despite how slightly annoying I found her at times, haha!
