Sookie is sent to Dallas by Eric to investigate a missing vampire. Of course things do not go well. Upon arriving back in Bon Temps she helps the Belfleurs, again, a bit more excitement than you would want on a nice evening out with associates.
Eric is "Da Man", speaks sarcasm with ease, and has a wonderful vibe to him. Sookie is much smarter than in True Blood and Bill still irritates, pretty much like people you know. :)
A great escape book that is funny more often than not with just enough danger to make it all move right along.

Dead Until Dark by Charlaine Harris
Read this a long time ago then recently watched True Blood. Rereads can be very revealing. I like Sookie better in the books, she is not stupid there like in the series. Being a telepath sounds neat until you think of all the weird and random stuff you think of all day long. If nothing else it makes you think about thinking. :)
Bill Compton, vampire, still gets on my nerves. Eric Northman is still the man and Jason Stackhouse remains stupid.
The idea of calm and quiet is appealing so I can see why Sookie likes Bill but the idea of having a relationship with someone that wants to feed off of you is just beyond my comprehension.
Overall it is a fun, light read with enough action and drama to move things right along. There are also aspects that will make you think and reflect upon human behaviors and how people react to ones that are different from them.

Definitely Dead by Charlane Harris
Sookie Stackhouse is through with Bill the Vampire, is getting over Eric Northman, and is trying to live a "normal" life, or as normal as you can be when you can read minds and are surrounded by supernatural beings. There is also that slight issue with Debbie Pelt that has yet to be resolved hanging over her head too.
Going off to New Orleans to take care of her cousin Hedley's estate, who really is dead and not just a vampire now seems simple enough. Of course it is not.
This is a fun read, moves quickly, and holds many twist and turns.
