Sookie Stackhouse 7-copy Boxed Set by Charlaine Harris

3.0

So I picked up these right after watching the first season of HBO's True Blood. I am always looking for a new vamp series to sink my teeth into while waiting for new installments in my other series. Charlaine Harris' Sookie Stackhouse novels aren't my favorite, but they were worth the read.
Bon Temp provides some entertaining scenarios and interesting characters, and the True Blood series has definitely taken some creative directions from the books.
Still, the books are fun and all told from Sookie's POV. The telepathic waitress is a likable heroine and actually I enjoy her character much more through Harris' voice then on the show. Her quirky style of writing is enjoyable and easy reading, but I am still prone to a darker vamp series I think.
