Title: Sookie Who?
Review: Yes, I somehow managed to make it through the last five years without running into Sookie. But, having noticed that literally everyone I know has read the books, I decided it was time to join the club.I was generally pleased. Is it great literature? No. But, when it comes down to it, I generally don't like great literature. I like good stories with compelling characters, snappy dialogue, and lots of action. Dead Until Dark delivered on all three.Could the story have been tighter? Sure.Am I less than impressed with the immediate love of Bill and Sookie? Yes, but unlike the case of a certain emo, teen, dark-haired vampire lover, I at least get why Sookie loves Bill. I'm a tad fuzzy on why Bill loves Sookie, beyond the fact that the story requires it, and for this level of story, I think that's fine.Book two is on my library queue, and I am awaiting it eagerly.
