I’ve began my Sookie Stackhouse craze, though Twilight will remain 1st in my heart

Finished Dead Until Dark (first of the Sookie Stackhouse Series by Charlaine Harris) this week and I did not stop searching for the second book – Living Dead in Dallas; and I got lucky [I don’t know if you’ll call that lucky] because I bought a Sookie Stackhouse Box set in National Bookstore Mega Mall [thanks Patching! Mwah!]. I had a hard time finding the Sookie Stackhouse book here; I’ve searched ebay.ph, Powerbooks and am just so happy to find one in National. It was their last stock and has some minor defects but I was uber pleased to find one HBO’s TRUEBLOOD series is based from this Southern Vampire Novel Series. And from what I read in the first book, Sookie Stackhouse’s experiences is pretty amazing!

Dead Until Dark is about a young bar waitress named Sookie Stackhouse [pretty catchy huh?]. The setting is in Bon Temps, Louisiana. What makes Sookie interesting is that she has this ability to read minds – telepathic/psychic? And she was so happy to meet Bill, a vampire, because she couldn’t get through his mind; and that delighted her. Vampires no longer hide their identities and they could live freely amongst human which is pretty cool – though there’s still the coffin thing, stakes and silver stuff. There’s a lot of deaths, sex and other stuff in this novel that makes it kind of an adult category it’s a fun read and I think you can finish it in one sitting, cause when you come across the thrilling parts, you can’t put the book down it’s an open ending and I so want to start with my second book.

I find it pretty interesting that the heroine, Sookie, has the same ability as Edward plus Bella [Sookie can read minds and is not affected my Bill's powers] and that Sam [Sookie's Boss] is a shape-shifter, hmmm, Jacob? Its like a mature/adult version of Twilight, hehehe.
