Latest installment of the Sookie Stackhouse series. Sookie gets involved in the latest political shake-ups in both the Vampire and Were communities. In the meantime, Sookie has a witch roommate to deal with and her newlywed brother to look after. Quinn isn't as attentive as she had hoped he'd be, and both Eric and Bill make sure Sookie knows that they are interested in her. The best part is that Sookie learns of two completely different relatives that she didn't even know she had. Good book.

I won't really describe the happenings in this book, because it felt like mostly filler. It was like Charlaine was just preparing us for upcoming books. I enjoyed this only because I love all of the characters, I love the town, and Sookie is a great lead. There were some problems resolved and new problems brought to the surface. These have obviously opened new doors for future books. Lets see, Alcide is finally head of the Were's. Sookie and Quinn solved their relationship dilemma. Sookie is introduced to one of her ancestors. Eric now remembers his past with Sookie. I was hoping more would come out of that last one, but I was left disappointed. The book ends kind of awkwardly, and I'm not really sure what she was trying to tell us or make us feel at the end. All I know is I felt kind of empty about the whole thing.

I have a feeling that the next book will much better. This book set up a lot of new storylines for the future. I can only hope this series keeps trucking along, because I'm in love with the lighthearted small town charm that it has.

This is without a doubt one of the best Sookie books i've ever read. Don't get me wrong. I love all the action books where she's jumping from one world ending crisis to another. Those were and are great. But this one allows you to spend some time with Sookie. She's cranky at work. Her brother lets her down. And there are some really great action parts in it. It's just more of a 'get to know Sookie better' thing. I was thrilled to get to know the other part of her family. I can't wait for that to be expanded on. Really really great stuff.

I really like all of the books in this series and this one was no exception. What I enjoyed most about it was that we got to spend more time with Sookie and all of those -old and new - who are a part of her life. The last couple of books have had these mega-storylines where Sookie needs to save the world. This one had major action scenes but they weren't drawn out over the course of the book. I like getting to know the minor characters and seeing what the others are up to. Great book... great read!

I didn't want it to end. Love Sookie. Lots of action. Can't wait for the next one and the HBO series in Sept.

Great book! I highly enjoyed it. Like the other reviewer said, it didn't seem as dramatic as the last few. But it was great. And i loveeeed the ending. As in the very last few lines.... So of course now i can't wait to read the next one!!

Another great Sookie book! Already I can't wait for the next one gah! A lot of important things happen in Sookie's life but it doesn't seen as dramatic as the other books. So this book has an even lighter feel than previous books which I like.

This book is more laid back letting you get to know the characters more in depth. Still a good book just not as much action as the pass books. Probably what Sookie needed a bit of a break..

This is definitely one of the better books in the series. Even though the author must have been trying to fill pages with so many different plots in the story, it was written better than the previous books had been. I spent more time looking forward to what would happen next than rolling my eyes over ridiculous things the characters did. Sookie is definitely growing as a person and not quite as annoying as she used to be, but she still does things that she can't help since the author is obviously trying to drag her romantic life on for as long as possible.

Over, not a bad read at all.

Quote The Anniston(AL) Star: "With ...an audacious wink of her eye, Harris creates a workd that is both a weird possibility and a wild ride." and The Eternal Night: "Charlaine Harris's talent is a marvelous thing." I totally agree with these reviewers! This book starts after the hurricane Katrina and will keep you up late reading the latest adventures of Sookie and the critters.

I love Sookie's world. She is an amazing women, as I always knew she was. I love Eric. They just need to get together forever!

Consistant performance. Better book series than TV show. The books are not as focused on sex. You have more of a consistant story line, even if Sookie is mostly a twit.

As usual Charlaine Harris has another winner

I love the Sookie Stackhouse novels! This one did not dissapoint!

I'm glad I didn't waste my money buying the hard cover of this series which is located in the romance section of book stores. Really Harris should be in sci-fi, she has a wonderful time leading the story every which direction, using all kinds of magical creatures, but I like romance in my books and she just doesn't put out in most of these Sookie Stackhouse books.
