"Cute short stories. Reminded me of why I like'd this series. Pleasant way to pass the time. of course the stories were short and to the point so they didn't run into the lack of plot problems the novels in this series have been having lately." — Katie (4 out of 5 stars)
"Cute short stories. Reminded me of why I like'd this series. Pleasant way to pass the time. of course the stories were short and to the point so they didn't run into the lack of plot problems the novels in this series have been having lately."
“Vivid, subtle, and funny in her portrayal of Southern life.”
“Blending action, romance and comedy, Harris has created a fully functioning world so very close to our own, except, of course, for the vamps and other supernatural creatures.”
“Fans of HBO’s True Blood will swoon over Charlene Harris’ collection of five stories featuring telepathic waitress Sookie Stackhouse and her supernatural encounters. Not only are there juicy tidbits about choice True Blood characters, there are also new characters and plots to roundly fill out the outrages occurring in Bon Temps, Louisiana. Johanna Parker captures Sookie’s drawl, sometimes tinged with hilarity, sometimes with facetious irony or sweet sarcasm. Parker also imparts a range of expression for the other characters, human and occult. The stories are particularly textured in the way they continually contrast humor and horror, keeping listeners on their toes.”
" A really good fast read "
" Not Harris' best work, but it was ok. Hard to follow if you hadnt read the rest of the series. "
" enjoyed, not looking at reading the whole series though, this was enough for me. "
" Love this addition to the Sookie series. My favorite story was The Gift. "
" These were fun extra stories to fill in some of the story lines from previous books. If you are a fan you must read this book. "
" If you love all things Sookie I recommend this book. If not pass. It is a fairly simple set of stories... if I hadn't been a fan I don't think I would have stuck with it. I know we as Sookie fans beg for more and more but I think Charlaine could have done better... "
" stuck di cerita ketiga, entah kenapa susah banget nyelesein buku ini, padahal tipis, apa kurang menarik kali ya? tapi ahirnya selese juga walo baca mundur hahaha... jadi penasaran siapa Bubba itu sebenernya. Anyone? "
" Great short stories with Sookie and friends to tide you over until the next Sookie Stackhouse novel comes out...which is May 2011, yay! "
" I finished all 12 Sookie Stackhouse novels and needed just "a little bit more" and this quenched my thirst. "
" I like that these short stories fill in some of the gaps in the time between the books, they satisfy the itch for more Sookie. "
" I didn't think this way that great. Too short, too off character and too blah. "
" Another fun book for a road trip. "
" The more Charlaine Harris writes the worst these books get. She should have stopped about 3 back. "
" cute short stories "
" Bleh. I think I need a full-length novel to forget how bad the writing is and get caught up in the fun plots. "
" Book was okay. A bunch of short stories to fill in on some of the blanks in the books. very cleaver. "
" Not as good as the main stories but still were delightful to hold me over until,the new book comes out this year :) "
" I like Sookie. She's fun. I did this as an audio book on a long drive and having these stories was awesome. I especially liked the Dracula one. I am especially partial to Eric though, in general. "
" This book has a little bit of all the stories in it. It's not really a continuation of the other 10 books in the series. It would be good for someone who wants just a little idea of what the other books are about but hasn't read them yet. "
" Thought this was a fun addition well waiting for the next book to come out! "
" I loved these short stories of things that happened in between the books in this series. It also helps give a bit more detail to the story and fills in a few gaps :) "
" This provides some needed background and should be read after about book 4. "
" Loved the short stories. These kept me entertained for a long time. I particularly fell in love with Dahlia. "
" Too short. Too "thin" on substance. For as much as these stories are referred to in the books, there was just nothing to them. Boo! "
" As addictive as V "
