As a first in the series of a now well-known TV show, I've loved reading this book and seeing more from Sookie's perspective than even seen in the show. My mom loves the show, so it was fun to read and share with her differences from book to show.

I love hearing Sookie's internal thoughts as she

reads everyone else's thoughts!

I wasn't a huge True Blood fan until I was an adult and had watched about halfway through the first season before starting the book. I remember watching the show and

not putting together that Rene was the serial killer until the reveal and being absolutely gutted

but nothing beats Sookie having that same discovery in the book.
