Holy sh#t!!!! I LOVE these books!!! I love the show and watch them over and over on HBOgo and I had no idea there where books, my hubby bought them for me for Christmas and I'm on the fourth book already!! Can't put them down!! I'm an avid reader and very picky, very picky. Twilight books were a complete joke for me, horrible books, poorly written, good concept, horribly written.These are well written, nice flow, the first book is similar to the show, then they go somewhat off course but I like that because I don't know what to expect! They are told from Sookies perspective and I love it, I'm amazed how well Anna Paquin portrays her.
The characters are a hair different but Sookie, Bill, and Eric are mostly the same. Tara is not a key character at all, I didn't mind at all, and since its in Sookies perspective you don't know what Jason's off doing like you do in the show (the v and stuff). I just so happy I love them as much as I love the show, glad they are different but close enough. I will be looking into this authors other series as well. Very well written, easy flow, easy story.
That said, my friend hated the books (i think she read one..) however she isn't a freak about the show like me and hates Anna paquin, whom I love.
I love the harry potter books and I'm a grown 30 year old! Anyhow, bottom line, if you are freak about the show, you will love the books!!

Sookie Stackhouse 8copy Boxed Set Sookie Stackhouse / Southern Vampire Charlaine Harris Books Reviews
I read the first 7 books in the sookie Stackhouse saga as they came out bought them in hard back because I could not waite to find out what happend to Sookie. I purchased this set because I wanted the complete collection in Ebook format. Sookie is a wonderfully complex character and you get caught up in her strugle to make her disability into an asset and her discovery of a totally different world that exists along side what most of us see. It is great fun to watch her grow from a shy reclusive southern girl into a mature woman who knows what she wants and find ways to work around the obsticals she encounters in her life and loves.I highly rec0mmend these books and the rest of the Sookie Books as well.
If you liked the "True Blood" TV Series you will love the books there is so much more in them and they dont get weird like the TV Show did in the last two years of the series.
Sookie is an amazing character that you come to know and really cre ablut her finding happiness in the face of all the trials and tribulations she encounters in her life.
After watching both seasons of True Blood on HBO and LOVED it, I knew I had to jump in and read the books. I ordered this book set along with book 9, unfortunately it's in hardcover... Needless to say, I was truly obsessed. I've just finished reading all the books and am totally sad that I went through it so fast. But I really couldn't help it! I read every day, and finished a book each day. So obviously obsessed. Now for the anxious wait of book 10 in March! Crazy!
Just a note, I thought the cover art for all the books were kind of cheesy, but I love that about them! So I was pretty sad that the first two books didn't have the same illustrations as the original ones apart from this set.
Now about the books. Charlaine writes so well, I love that woman! The books are fast-paced and there is never a dull moment. It's so action-packed and is always making you try to solve the mysteries that lie ahead. I have to admit, there were times when it was so predictable. There were quite a few gasp-inducing moments and many laugh-out-louds as well. There are SO many characters throughout all the books, but you're able to keep track of them all thanks to Charlaine's talent. I love that she opens us up to a whole new world of supernatural beings and makes it all feel like this really could happen. Sookie's narration is so fun and sassy and smart that I totally feel like I'm on the level with her. Sookie is my role model! I'm really pleased that Sookie is not a scrawny, anorexic size 0. But instead, a squeeze-into-size 8! A buxom-babe! I love it! No dumb blonde here.
The HBO series did change some of the book's plot so drastically, it makes me wonder how they're gonna handle the upcoming books. In season 2 for example, MaryAnn the maenad had such a huge role on the show (which I had thought they were really stretching her role ridiculously even though I hadn't even read the book yet) but the tiniest in the book. And as much as I loved Lafayette on the show, it turns out he has a very minor role in the book and doesn't even show up after book 2...so that'll be interesting to see what they do with him on the TV series. A few other things to point out, Bill never killed Long Shadow the bartender, so he didn't have to go on trial and take the punishment of "turning" a person--hence, there is no Jessica in the books. Why did HBO do this? I personally think that the accuracy of the details of Long Shadow's incident is pretty pertinent in the next few books. It pretty much ruins what's really supposed to happen. Or HBO is gonna have to change the plot entirely. Also, Godric was not Eric's maker, but that doesn't ruin anything in the next books, except for it being untrue. And the whole MaryAnn turning everyone in town crazy and having them all join at a mass orgy, that SooOooo doesn't happen in the story. I think HBO just wanted to ultra sex up the series-- and I thought they definitely overdid it and was pretty distasteful. There was too much of Jason's sex-capades on the TV series when in the books, though he was known to be a man-about-town, we obviously don't visit those scenes. Because of the TV series, I was skeptical that the books may be something close to harlequin romances--so glad they're not! Whew! There are some steamy sex scenes in the book, but it's not crude like in the shows. These little scenes were a nice little treat! )
My few gripes were that the author keeps on rehashing what had happened in the past and re-describes each character in the progression of the series. Like, we meet Sam in the first book, and he is an important character and is seen in all the books, yet the author is always describing what he looks like for the millionth time! Sorry Char, but Sam is unforgettable! I also have to agree with other reviewers that it seems like every guy IS trying to get into Sookie's pants. But I guess it makes for tough decisions for Sookie to make.
Anyway, I just can't stress enough how wonderful these books are. Though I definitely think that these books are for adults only. I know there are high school kids that know so much about sex and all that now, but I just don't think it's appropriate for them. I did not let my little sister who's in high school read this.
All in all, Sookie's the best, Jason's an A-hole and I'm in love with Eric Northman. )
Hope this was helpful.
I have never been a person who was into vampire or mythological creatures. When the series True Blood came out I didn't watch it at first. My husband, friends,and acquaintances kept telling me how great it is. I eventually broke down watched an episode in the 2nd season and then had to go back and watch it from the beginning. I was instantly hooked.
I have always preferred books to movies or shows. When I discovered that True Blood was based on this set of books, I had to have them. It is amazing how the series is so much like the book. There are some differences but they are mostly minor things such as hair color. Once I started reading I could not stop.
This set of books is in a nice cardboard holder that all the books are placed in. It keeps them together and from getting lost. As I have gotten older I don't purchase many books, but this is one set I would not do without. It is fantastic.
Holy sh#t!!!! I LOVE these books!!! I love the show and watch them over and over on HBOgo and I had no idea there where books, my hubby bought them for me for Christmas and I'm on the fourth book already!! Can't put them down!! I'm an avid reader and very picky, very picky. Twilight books were a complete joke for me, horrible books, poorly written, good concept, horribly written.
These are well written, nice flow, the first book is similar to the show, then they go somewhat off course but I like that because I don't know what to expect! They are told from Sookies perspective and I love it, I'm amazed how well Anna Paquin portrays her.
The characters are a hair different but Sookie, Bill, and Eric are mostly the same. Tara is not a key character at all, I didn't mind at all, and since its in Sookies perspective you don't know what Jason's off doing like you do in the show (the v and stuff). I just so happy I love them as much as I love the show, glad they are different but close enough. I will be looking into this authors other series as well. Very well written, easy flow, easy story.
That said, my friend hated the books (i think she read one..) however she isn't a freak about the show like me and hates Anna paquin, whom I love.
I love the harry potter books and I'm a grown 30 year old! Anyhow, bottom line, if you are freak about the show, you will love the books!!
