#30

I really like these Sookie Stackhouse novels ~ #30 is Living Dead in Dallas by Charlaine Harris (#2 in the series).  I find it difficult to 'place' the type of book.  The covers make them seem so light-hearted, almost comicical ~ but the stories are a little dark & sexual and violent.  It's hard to take a character named Sookie seriously, but the stories are deadly serious.
What if vampires were suddenly considered 'mainstream'?  What if the supernatural beings we all assume are myths, were real?  Interesting concept...with lots of killing!  I can't wait to read the next one.
~ need to note that I did not sleep well this week & actually finished this book this morning around 4:00am...because I couldn't sleep.
