Through her early work consisted largely of poems about ghosts and, later, teenage angst, she began writing plays when she attended Rhodes College in Memphis, Tennessee. She now lives in southern Arkansas with her husband and three children. She was born and raised in the Mississippi River Delta area of the United States.

The Sookie Stackhouse stories are delightful Southern Gothic supernatural mysteries, starring Sookie, the telepathic cocktail waitress, and a cast of increasingly colourful characters, including vampires, werewolves, and things that really do go bump in the night.Ībout the Author: Charlaine Harris Schulz is an American New York Times bestselling author who has been writing mysteries for thirty years. But that’s easier said than done, and all it takes is one delicious blonde and one small mistake for things to turn deadly…. She’s supposed to interview certain humans involved, but she makes one condition: the vampires must promise to behave and let the humans go unharmed. So when one of the bloodsuckers asks for a favour, she obliges – and soon Sookie’s in Dallas, using her telepathic skills to search for a missing vampire. Enter the vampires, who graciously suck the poison from her veins (like they didn’t enjoy it). Then she comes face to-face with a beastly creature that gives her a painful and poisonous lashing. First her co-worker is killed, and no one seems to care. I am bringing you a spoiler-free review of this book.Ĭocktail waitress Sookie Stackhouse is having a streak of bad luck. While watching it, I continued on reading the second book which leads us to this meeting. BUT IT IS NOT MY FAULT! It is the books! Since I read Dead Until Dark, I decided to go back and start this show from the beginning to see how different it is. So… I might be starting to watch True Blood from the beginning but I might not be.
