Title: Never grabbed my attention
Review: I liked Harris' style of writing. She moves the story well and tries to keep the reader engaged. Unfortunately, the story itself fell flat. Sookie, the main character, is described as being intelligent, but naive. Unfortunately, her small town experience is taken to the extreme that she comes across as anything but intelligent.The mystery portion of the novel is well done, but as is often the case when one is done well the other, the relationships in this case, are stiff and poorly developed. I didn't like Bill and wondered why Sookie would allow herself to be used by him, however much he professed to love her.Much more interesting to me was the shape shifter whom she almost completely ignores.Overall it was a quick read, but one that never did quite pull me into the story and make me care about the characters.
