This is a light read with a slightly different twist on vampires. They have come out of the coffin, so to speak, in an attempt to mainstream back into society, at least one of them. But when Sookie falls in love with Vampire Bill, she finds it quite different from any human boyfriend she might have had. Well, you can just imagine. Its a good story, not too deep, and a fast read. Sci-fi with mystery and romance intertwined with the unusual life of Sookie Stackhouse who can read minds whether she wants to or not. Not a lot of character development to bog you down just downright fun and simple to understand. It does have its gory parts, but they are not overly graphic. Some explicit sexual scenes cause me to hesitate recommending for teens.
