After Dead: What Came Next in the World of Sookie Stackhouse by Charlaine Harris, Lisa Desimini
coradee's review against another edition

"After Dead" certainly gives readers of the series some closure by letting us know what happens next in the world of Sookie Stackhouse. But since the book is structured more like a list than a narrative, I did find it more informative than entertaining.

This was a good wrap-up to the series. I was amazed she remember all the characters and completed their stories. The book also revealed some of these characters are coming back for their own series. Hooray!

If you're wondering what happened to any characters, just message me. Think of it as a public service I'm doing for you, dear reader, because you really can't unread this pig-slop of a book.

Do yourself a favor: If you absolutely, positively must know what happened to every inconsequential waitress, contractor, and supernatural hanger-on in the world of Sookie Stackhouse, then take this book out of the library. Better yet, walk into a library, take it off the shelf, sit at a table with it for the 10 minutes it'll take you to read it, and then put it back on the shelf. For the sake of the gods of good books, do not waste your money.
So, yeah, I borrowed After Dead from the library out of curiosity -- could it really be as big a waste of time as I'd been hearing? Well, yes. After Dead is an encyclopedic listing of the fates of all the characters, major and minor, from the Sookie series. I couldn't remember who half of the characters mentioned were, and even for the others -- well, I'm sorry, but it's not just terribly interesting to get a summary of a person's life in 2 - 5 paragraphs.
After Dead just seems like a last money grab to cash in on the Sookie series. Don't bother.

What was the point of this?? Main characters that were very prevalent got one sentence endings. LITERALLY one sentence.
This was a complete waste of time.

Nice to see what happened to the characters after but not worth buying.

This book is essentially a group of single paragraph entries on a lot of the characters major and minor who appeared over the long span of the Sookie Stackhouse series. The entries read like Facebook updates or quick exchanges at a reunion to sum up the last 10-20 years. While it is a cute idea, I think it would have been more fun and generous to the loyal fans of the series to release them daily or weekly on a blog or through social media as a reward for continued interest.
