My thoughts… a bit jumbled because I’m typing this tired at 3 AM
3.5 stars or 4? 🤔
I watched True Blood at the beginning of this year, and I had a love hate relationship with it of sorts, and it may end up being the same with the books, we shall see. I liked the storyline of True Blood, but the vampires upset me often, especially towards the last seasons. But it was cool to be back in the world (even though I did it backwards lol) It was easy to picture the characters and even hear them.
This first book I did like, I think the show followed it fairly well first season. TV Bill was a bit different than Book Bill I feel like. In the book, I did not appreciate one comment he made and then the graveyard sex scene in the book…
But there were other times I did like him in the book.
I will definitely be continuing the series and am excited to see where it goes, I’ve heard the show kinda changed away from the books after the first season. Plus I’m in my vampire phase.
