Escapist silliness (books, movies and TV series) is one of my favourite ways to relax, so I have no problem with that aspect whatsoever:-) I'm just not that into the TV series anymore.<br /> Lovely to hear that your friend knows Charlaine Harris personally. I definitely want to read the books too, it will be fun to compare. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-anyone-likes-sookie-stackhouse-books-or-true-blood#post-688262 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 21:56:30 +0000 Emily 688262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I dooo! It is a guilty pleasure for sure. The other series I enjoyed, which is a little more R rated, is the first handful of books in the Anita Blake vampire hunter series. It gets pretty saucy in the later books, but the first few focus a more on plot and less on how many supernatural beings you can pile in (on?) to a sexual encounter. Fun fashion sidenote: The first book was originally written in 1993, which becomes very apparent in the descriptions of Anita's outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-anyone-likes-sookie-stackhouse-books-or-true-blood#post-688196 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 20:57:50 +0000 ironkurtin 688196@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Inge, the books and the series are pretty divergent. I enjoy the books as a fun beach read, and the series as escapist silliness. So they're both a bit of a guilty pleasure! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-anyone-likes-sookie-stackhouse-books-or-true-blood#post-688187 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 20:53:59 +0000 Inge 688187@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like vampire stories, but haven't had a chance yet to read the Sookie Stackhouse books. I have watched all the seasons on TV though - once you start, it's addictive and I dig Alexander Skarsgard as Eric;-) I have to admit that it has become more of a habit now, over the last two seasons the storylines have been getting sillier and way over the top. I'm still curious about the books though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-anyone-likes-sookie-stackhouse-books-or-true-blood#post-688005 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 18:28:50 +0000 Kirti 688005@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I didn't like True Blood, so I didn't read the series. I do like vamps in general though, I love vampire Diaries, liked Twilight and am currently reading Julie Kagawa's new vampire novel - The Immortal Rules. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-anyone-likes-sookie-stackhouse-books-or-true-blood#post-687973 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 17:57:37 +0000 citygirldc 687973@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I watch the show but have never read the books.</p> <p> BTW, I've always been into vampires although the Twilight series got me going again. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-anyone-likes-sookie-stackhouse-books-or-true-blood#post-687902 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 17:16:25 +0000 cheryl 687902@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have read all of the books except the most current one. I liked them more in the beginning but now find them to be too repetitive. Same story different characters to a certain degree. </p> <p>I do however love the show even though it gets a little bit too graphic for me sometimes. My husband bought me the viking charm for my Pandora bracelet and I named it Eric, haha. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-anyone-likes-sookie-stackhouse-books-or-true-blood#post-687829 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 15:54:43 +0000 ironkurtin 687829@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do! Haven't caught up on my TB watching, but I do like the books. A friend of mine acquired them for print, so I have a personal interest in them since I feel like their success reflects well on m buddy. And he says the author is a lovely woman and deserves every bit of fame and compensation she can get. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-anyone-likes-sookie-stackhouse-books-or-true-blood#post-687826 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 15:52:54 +0000 Jjsloane 687826@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just finished the 1st one - and I can't wait to start the next one. I think it was recommended on YLF at some point and I'd added them to my library queu. I have not watched the show, but might after I've read a few more of them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-anyone-likes-sookie-stackhouse-books-or-true-blood#post-687789 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 15:14:30 +0000 Isabel 687789@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hear that they have a huge following. I have never read any of them or seen the show. I keep telling myself that I should read fiction. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-anyone-likes-sookie-stackhouse-books-or-true-blood#post-687192 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 19:02:36 +0000 Victoria 687192@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>its kind of weird but I was never into vampire fic until I read the first Sookie Stackhouse book by charlaine Harris(for those who don't know, True Blood show is based on these books however books are more PG-13 rating while show rates R+). I always thought the storyline sounded stupid as hell but after I read first one, I couldn't wait to read the second, etc. I am on #8. I have not read any other vampire fiction to be honest but this one is really addictive </p>
