Currently reading.... The Sookie Stackhouse companion

I'm not quite sure when I turned into SUCH a book obsessed nerd. Ok, I'll admit, as a kid, I might have had the entire Trixie Beldon and Sweet Valley High collection. I also may have been obssessed with owning a copy of everythin an authour I liked had written.
But.
I do believe I have aged well and gotten quite a lot worse!
I actually cant remember when I got hooked on Charlaine Harris. It MAY have coincided with the first season of True Blood. I quickly consumed everything she had written, particularly enjoying the Aurora Teagarden series.

Charlaine Harris has a quirky writing syle and she is bloody funny too.

So, I finally got my copy of the Sookie Stackhouse companion.
This enormous book of awsome contains tit bits about all the characters, deleted scenes and short stories that havent made it into the other books.

Those of you that love True Blood and havent read the Sookie books really should! They are quite different to the tv series. Characters that are main characters in the TV series were killed off in the books very early on. Despite this, I still love both.
I bought mine from Book depository.com with free shipping!

The Sookie Stackhouse Companion

Currently reading....

I'm knee deap in a massive series series written by Kelley Armstrong and Im just loving the style of her writing. I'm reading book 9 out of 12 Living with the dead.

The thing is, I accidently found this author in a book of short stories.
The other thing is, I don't really like books of short stories. I only get them when they contain authors Im slightly obsessed with, because they often include excluded chapters from series I read, or side stories on minor characters etc.

So I was pleasantly suprised when I begrudgingly read a short story about characters from the Otherworld series and then embarked on reading all the books. The thing I love about this series is you usually meet the main characters from the next installment in the book you are currently reading.
