I just started reading the Sookie Stackhouse series. These are the books that sparked the True Blood series and they are yet another vampire series so of course I had to read them. I’m still a bit up in the air on this series. They are a very quick read
(I’m already on to Club Dead), and the author writes Sookie as sort of a wise cracking southern belle. She’s telepathic which is pretty cool. I like her more than the ever complaining Miss Bella from the Twilight Series. I think what I don’t like is that in this series, the vampires are all kind of perverted and not all that great. In a way, the books are a lot more realistic because the vampires aren’t these perfect, shiny creatures who smell great all the time. While I don’t think I’ll be buying this series as mothers day gifts like I did the Twilight series for my mom, I do think I will finish the series and see what happens to the quirky Miss Stackhouse and her very odd world. I’ll give this one a B because it’s interesting, but the grammar and writing abilities of the author Charlaine Harris a C-.

The world has gone Vampire crazy! As a lover of all things Twilight, Vampire Diaries, and now the Sookie Stackhouse/True Blood series, I can relate. This episode of Private Practice where a 13 year old tells other girls he’s a vampire is kind of funny. Isn’t it scary that even young men are learning to manipulate women?! I mean, 13? Yikes.
Then there’s poor Naomi and Sam and their 15 year old knocked up kid. I wish I could say this only happens on tv but it is the reality of our world.
All I will say is there is no way that when I have kids that my 13 year old is reading Twilight til she’s older and can separate fantasy from fiction.

Oh, and I absolutely hate the storyline between Addison and Sam. Ew. Ew. Ew. The writers are making Addison so incredibly unlikeable! I still can’t believe that her and Sam shut the blinds in her office and made out, with her best friend/his ex WIFE a floor below them. Bleck.

Violet needs to take responsibility for her son. I really hope she does soon. Grrr….she’s soooo annoying.

This show is funny because it is intriguing yet infuriating. I miss it when Dell was just this sexy guy who’d take his shirt off to go to the beach, and Addison wasn’t such a ho. But Addison did look stunning in her dress, even if a bit like the statue of liberty. PS: I can’t BELIEVE she slept with Pete…she’s so repulsive. What the hell?! And then afterwards the way they both admit they’re in love with other people. I feel like sometimes these people are horny teenagers, not professional, adult doctors.
But if they were grownups, the show wouldn’t be that interesting would it?
I’m curious to see what will happen next for this group. All of their lives seem to be headed in a downward spiral.
