Soooo Wordy...

You like the title of this post? I'm not sure if I'm sold on it but I was thinking of Chat Stew on The Soup and heard the girl saying Soooo Meaty.. anyway I'm rambling again. lol

So tonight I felt like reading a great book but unfortunately for me I’ve read everything I own.
The last book I read was the 3rd book in the Sookie Stackhouse series. It was so much fun and I can’t wait to sink my teeth into the 4th book.

The 3rd book in the series is called Club Dead (Southern Vampire Mysteries, Book 3) By: Charlaine Harris

My main issue with any book series is that in the beginning I’m always trying to remember the details from the previous book. I’m not sure how people can read this as a stand alone novel. It’s really difficult when you start watching episodes of True Blood and you start confusing things that happen in the book to things that happen in the show.

I have to say that I wasn’t as happy with this book as I was the first two. This one seemed a little too sci-fi than funny romance. And it’s really starting to irk me that every guy that Sookie meets falls in love with her. That said, it’s still good.

There was some disappointment in this book. Bill (the vamp boyfriend) did things totally out of left field and left Sookie feeling betrayed. - Let's just say I wouldn't have saved his lying cheating ass!

I’m trying not to say too much for those of you who haven’t read the book and want to. Just make sure to read books 1 & 2 before this one.

Another book I've recently read is: Plum Spooky - A Stephanie Plum Between the Numbers Novel By: Janet EvanovichYou can never go wrong with a Stephanie Plum book. Heck you can never go wrong with reading any book by Janet Evanovich. I love writers that include humor in their books.

I commented above about series books not being stand alone novels. That is not true for this series. I do recommend all of the number series but I don't think you would have any problem picking up this book. It recaps who the characters are so you don't feel lost reading it. It's fast paced and oh so funny!

Again with this series it seems all the guys are in love with the main character. I don't really mind it so much with Stephanie, infact I think in this situation it makes it more entertaining.

I have to say that I like the Stephanie Plum number series much better than I do the in-between ones. I had read a review that said these seem to be more like dream sequences than something that is actually happening. I can kind of get that but it's still a good read!
