Since the vampire genre is in full hype and I'm a big fan of the "True Blood" series, I decided to give the Sookie Stackhouse novels by Charlaine Harris a try. I'm half way through book two of the series, Living Dead in Dallas, and I'm really liking them. I was very skeptical when I started the first book, Dead Until Dark, but they have turned out to be very fun, light, and entertaining. The book series has less violence, drugs, and sex than the HBO series, but it gives a lot more insight into the characters and the supernatural world. I can't say that I prefer one over the other, since they are both very good in their way.
They're not dark and gothy like most books in this genre, so they can appeal to anyone, whether you're a fan or not of the vampire genre. I highly recommend this series for those of you looking for something quick, fun, and sassy to read. -Don't underestimate them, they are addictive once start.-
