robotnik's review against another edition
1.0
Cons:
- bad writing
- meh plot
- homophobia
- biphobia
- racist
- slut shames like nobody's business
- the romance is kind of rape-y
- probably referring to telepathy as a disability; that just seems side-eye worthy
- Sookie because she's just plain awful
Pros:
- vampires that have to avoid sunlight and actually sleep in the dirt, which is awesome
- Bill has nice sideburns
- ????
- that's about it really
That's all I got. I'm skipping the rest of this series. It's too long for me to waste my time with it.
Moderate: Ableism, Biphobia, Racism, and Sexual harassment

Sookie Stackhouse is a waitress in a small town in Louisiana and she's always wanted to meet a vampire because in this world vampires have been exposed and humans and vampires have been trying to co habituate together. Sookie meets her first vampire in Bill, a (confederate) civil war era vampire. Bill is quite taken with Sookie and she is equally taken with him.
I don't like that Sookie's grandma was so excited
There's a murder mystery mingled in with some paranormal romance and I really enjoyed this book. It was gory, sexy, mysterious, and entertaining. I'm giving this 4.5 stars out of 5 because I had a lot of fun with this read.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4.5/5 Stars
I read this for free on Libbyapp.com

Honestly I probably would have DNFed this had I not listened to the audiobook so take what I say with a grain of salt. The narrator is the one who kept me coming back for more. LOVED her Bill. Frankly more than Stephen Moyer😅
If you want an easy vampire popcorn read/listen, this is your book. Great for turning your brain off to lol
