Dead and Gone (Sookie Stackhouse, Book 9)

Telepathic waitress Sookie Stackhouse braces herself for trouble when another group of supernatural beings goes public in her disjointed eighth adventure (after 2008′s From Dead to Worse). Following the vampires’ lead, the shape-shifters decide to step out of the woodwork and announce their existence to the world.

While the initial reveal goes smoothly, the brutal crucifixion of a young werepanther behind the local bar makes Sookie wonder if the people of Bon Temps, La., are as tolerant as she thought. Meanwhile, the FBI is asking questions about Sookie’s uncanny ability to locate survivors after an explosion, and trouble is brewing among the secretive fae. Harris tries to cram too much into a single story, and even die-hard fans of Sookie’s adventures in print and on HBO’s True Blood will complain about the plot gaps. (May)

Dead and Gone (Sookie Stackhouse, Book 9) Review

After reading the negative reviews on Amazon site, I could only think of one thing… People, stop over analyzing this book and series. As readers, we need to be open to the author’s vision, not our desire for the story line. Dead and Gone is a purposeful book that moves the story line along as the author wants to tell the story. The Sookie series is an entertaining fantasy/mystery that is meant to be enjoyed, not poured over looking for inconsistency and minutiae. Enjoy this series for what it is and not what you ‘want’ it to be and you will have a wonderful time!

I have read all the books and just finished in the newest one in one evening.
Its entertaining, sassy, dark, a little scary, sexy and downright enjoyable. Read the book and be taken away for a few hours into another world. This book will not disappoint and you may even find yourself eagerly awaiting the next installment.

Sookie Stackhouse, Books 1-7 Box Set

Sookie Stackhouse is the main character in The Southern Vampire Mysteries, a series of eight books written by bestselling author Charlaine Harris

Sookie Stackhouse, Books 1-7 Box Set Review

First off – if you are interested in the True Blood series on HBO – get these books and get this set. I was STRONGLY recommended to read these books after talking about the show by a friend who read them when they first came out. So I did…purchased one at a time. Boy do I wish I would have bought the set right off and then get the additional books later for I would have saved a bit of money and had a great way to keep all the books together and in great shape. Nevertheless, the books and show ARE different and yet both are worthy of reading/watching if you are into this genre of books. I have enjoyed both for various reasons, but for the books, I truly enjoy the narrative of Sookie through all her trials and tribulations of interacting with “special” characters. This is not a wannabe Anita Blake type of series, but very unique, exciting and often lighthearted…definitely not as dark! Harris has written these books in such a way to really draw one into them, sometimes even identifying with human emotions that is sometimes unexpected. Now I have all the paperbacks, without the boxed set container (sad), and am awaiting the next book in the series.

Plus I will continue to watch the show, knowing on what it is based and that I should not expect the same thing as I read in the books…yet knowing the same “flavor” will be retained. That makes for good reading and for good TV/movie adaptation.
