Welcome to Litsy!

It‘s October, which means I have 5 hoopla borrows (only 2 now), so I could continue my Sookie Stackhouse reread. This is book 8 in the series. You got lots of Eric, some witchy stuff, and vampire takeovers.

Last Sunday morning finishing this off! I found this book a bit disjointed, lots of different plot lines going on and seems to just be a ‘set up‘ for the next book. Still, an easy read and some entertaining sections!

This was another re-listen for me. Sometimes I just can't decide what to read, and I tend to fall back on just reading or listening to this series. It's like watching an old favorite movie I've seen a bazillion times (You've Got Mail is my go-to for that). Pure fluff.

Hey, my book matches my quilt!

Not a bad story, but there‘s SO much going on. Sookie sails from earth-shattering revelation to near-death experience and round again. Lots of action but it felt...disjointed? Abrupt? I‘m not sorry to see the tail end of Quinn #unpopularopinion

In longer series, like this one, I have found that there are books that just serve to transition to the next major arc. This is one of those books. Still, it is a fast read and is very pleasurable!

Sometimes you read a really good recap paragraph that‘s worth sharing.

I find it ironic that I was comparing In Search of a Witch‘s Soul to the Sookie Stackhouse novels and now I‘m using an informational card for it as a bookmark...to a Sookie Stackhouse novel.

After deciding to finally finish this series after putting it down for a while, Eeyore decided to personalize my copy. #readingrabbitowners

This book plodded along quite nicely.
Nothing too exciting but it did tie up some loose ends quite nicely.

Not a big fan of Neil creepy fairy man!

Good installment

Sookie is about to get some interesting news.....from skeletons in her grandmas closest to her own heritage. I really enjoyed this book and loved meeting Hunter.

Not book related but after all the crazy that has been happening I decided I needed a change and I dyed my hair red!! I‘m loving it!! Also, book related, I‘m loving my reread of this series!! #happyhealthy

Where are all my Charlaine Harris fans??

I'm so glad that I let 6 years pass before my first reading of this series and watching the show, because I would have been yelling "THAT'S NOT WHAT HAPPENED!" at my television every few minutes. ? Still amazed at how many characters were left out or completely changed. I *did* enjoy it as a separate entity, and I'm glad it spurred me to reread the series.

I hope I see more of hunter in the next book!

Someone once asked, "Why don't people in books & movies ever do things like go to the bathroom?" The answer is, of course, that the minutiae of everyday life isn't usually pertinent to the plot. Harris doesn't seem to understand this.
But If you'd like to know every meal Sookie eats throughout the course of this story, maybe you'll enjoy this book, but I literally can't tell you what it's about because it's so overly detailed and unfocused.

Must be way outside of Fort Worth because I've never heard of it.

Does anyone else still get irrationally excited when their home town is mentioned in a book?

Another meal inspired by Ms. Stackhouse, described in way more detail than was really necessary to the plot.

It's okay, though. I make a pretty good lasagna. 😊

Everyone is sharing their #ReadingCompanion, so here is mine. Our house has been very Maya-centered since we lost Thumper. But I think she's kinda loving being an only child. #CatsOfLitsy.
