The first book in the Southern Vampire Mysteries series. The series in which True Blood the HBO series is based on. Dead Until Dark is about Sookie Stackhouse and her ability to read minds. Sookie meets a vampire, Bill, who she's so excited to meet because he's new and she cannot read his mind. She saves him from uncertain death and he ultimately does the same for her.

What I really like about the books are that they're follow Sookie and only Sookie. They don't jump around from character to character which makes these a fast read as well as interesting. I feel as though too many books I read jump from person to person or from event to event. Where this book just reads straight through. I find that refreshing and fun and it's what keeps me going back for more.
