A review by laura_de_leon
Definitely Dead by Charlaine Harris
4.0
Thank goodness, I enjoyed this book much more than the previous one!
Sookie has her love life under control, and is pursuing only one man-- Quinn, a were tiger. She's dealing with feelings from past relationships, and that's fine. We have an explanation for her attractiveness to supernatural men.
I like how her relationship with Eric is playing out-- she's making it clear she isn't falling in line as one of his subjects. Both are dealing with emotional fallout from past events, and are struggling for a grip on what this means to them.
I was interested in the background we get on Bill. I like the new character of Amelia.
Better yet, we have a plot or two! There were actual mystery/adventures that held my interest. There were also details of how vampire society works, and I always like that part of the world-building.
Looking around the net a bit, I found out there is a short story that falls between [b:Dead as a Doornail|170210|Dead as a Doornail (Sookie Stackhouse, #5)|Charlaine Harris|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255574650s/170210.jpg|1053933] and this one that fills in some of the details that I was wondering if I'd missed somewhere.
