Dead Until Dark by Charlaine Harris

Dead Until Dark by Charlaine Harris: first book in the Southern Vampire series. Immediately upon starting this novel, I found Harris’s voice irresistible. You can tell she’s from the south and there’s just something so comfortable about her. I loved how easy it was to get into this book.

It’s your typical Louisiana telepath meets nice vampire and they fall in love story. The characters are great, especially if you’re from the south. I really love Sookie. She’s sweet, smart, and you can’t help but adore her and her plucky spirit. It’s a quick read and I was strongly recommend this book, particularly if you enjoy books in the mystery or horror genre.

Dead Until Dark was one of the best books I've ever read. It was flirtatious, dangerous, and edgy. And Sookie, I love Sookie, he is such a kind, sweet person that everyone is always looking for but never finding. I love the idea of being a telepath too. Charlaine Harris is an awesome writer and I hope there will be more books after Cud Dead!!!!!!!!! These books are the best!!!!!!!!

I want to know when a new Sookie Stackhouse novel is set to come out? I am salivating for a new one!!!!!!

I just started reading the Sookie Stackhouse novels, and I think they're amazingly new and they keep you on your toes like no other vampire novel I've read, while still managing to have a great sense of humor (I mean, who could forget "Bubba"???:D). So I just wanted to say I hope there will be MANY more of these novels in the future. :)

I love the romance between Sookie and Bill. Club Dead disappointed me because that romance was not there. Sookie and Bill need to make up. The 4th book Dead to the World can not be as good if Sookie and Bill do not get back together.

I read all three books in just under three days (truth). I couldn't get enough. Sookie is ALL woman. She doesn't need a man to take care of her. In fact, she's saving THEM!

And as much as I enjoyed Sookie and Bill's romance, I'm glad he got booted after that stunt. Maybe now that nice Sam can have a crack at her. He'd definitely treat her better. I'm so disappointed in Bill.

Very good. If you like vamps and many other creatures of the underground you will love this book. It's companions make it even better, and for those who can't handle graphic love scenes it helps you get the idea without planly making you tense, a great read and I hope she writes more than four of them, I want to see what happens to Jason!

Where did you read the sample chapter for Dead to the World? i went on to amazon.com but I couldn't find it

I think Eric was sweet without his personality. If he could only remember what had happened... (Although it might over-inflate his ego even more...) o.o Your sort of S.O.L. either way... :/

I'm so obesessed with this series.... I blazed through the 1st 4 books in a few weeks (damn work and family, kept me from reading).

Bill rocks! I love my southern men!

I don't know what I'll do next week when i finish Dead as a Doornail... I'll be waiting for the next feverishly.
