It's been long enough since the Sookie marathon finished for me to enjoy dipping my toes back in the Bon Temps water, and I think these writers did a great job of picking up stray characters and exploring their past, present and future (whether or not they were all strictly within the rules of the Sookieverse). I enjoyed most, disliked one and was a little noncommittal about another, but that's generally how anthologies go.
Fun to reminisce, and to fill in some gaps. It didn't inspire me to go back and reread any of the other books, as some do ([a:Sharon Lee|57980|Sharon Lee|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1249574929p2/57980.jpg] and [a:Steve Miller|6519963|Steve Miller|https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/u_50x66-632230dc9882b4352d753eedf9396530.png], I'm looking at you!) which some might see as a criticism, but I was happy with it.
