Title: Skip the book if you liked the HBO Series
Review: I picked this book up after watching the HBO series, True Blood, based on this book. I figured as with so many books made into television, the book would be so much better, but I couldn't have been more wrong. The book was very poorly written & differed so much from the series that I just couldn't get into it. One of the main characters in the HBO series, Sookies best friend Tara, isn't even in the books! The dialogue was horrible, Sookie was portrayed as rather uneducated in the book & seemed very shallow (after all she seemed more upset by the demise of her cat than her grandmother). I've heard that the rest of the series of books does improve, however, I'm not wasting any more money on this series. If you do decide to try this book out, do yourself a favor & borrow it from a friend or the library. DO NOT waste money on this book!
