Not as good as some ofthe earlier ones. I'm actually kind of glad the series is ending-I think it's time. Will enjoy the last book to (hopefully) resolve Sookie's love-life options!

I loved all the other books but this one was bad. Sookie is becoming two-faced and (dare I say it) outright mean. She actually made fun of someone for being too pale to wear shorts. First off, ouch...she DOES have love affairs with vampires right, but humans aren't allowed to be pale without ridicule? This is just an example, there were a few things Sookie did that the kind-hearted version of herself wouldn't have. I hope this isn't a permenant new direction for her.

SO DISAPPOINTED. Is this the same writer?!? This has to be worst of the series. Sookie was 'uncharacteristic' at least for half the book. Eric too. So many things didn't quite fit right. The fae storyline was choppy, the Felipe one was choppy AND incomplete. They/she should have fixed and focused on the Were-storyline. Waste of paper, waste of time.

1 more book to go and the series is over....not sure which way she is taking this. Still an enjoyable series. Glad that TrueBlood is on tv.

I enjoyed the book a lot and can't wait for the next one. I did find Sookie kind of doing a lot of calling the kettle black. If someone else uses her property without asking first it's just rude but she can't find it to feel bad a man ( a human) was killed in her kitchen even though he hadn't been trying to kill her ( as far as we know). She callously steps over his body to retrieve a glass of water. She hangs up on alcaide then calls him back 10 mins later for a favor. I enjoyed the book and the storyline which should wrap up in the next book. I just found Sookie is becoming a bit two- faced. what the heck was up with Eric? Not acting like the eric i enjoy reading about.I liked Bill and Bubba as usual.

seems less and less joy in the last 2 books, feels like the ending of the series can't come fast enough. i probably done with it. the ending of the book didn't trill me, i just don't find sam that much interesting. sad.

The plot in this book just seemed so incredibly dry compared the the earlier books in the series. As this series goes on in fact, it becomes harder and harder for me to recall what exactly happened in each of the previous books. They've just become so forgettable to me now (at least the last few books have). It's as if the author built up the series to this amazing crescendo, and then lost where she was going with it. And I used to love the Sookie and Eric dynamic and was glad when she finally ditched Bill, but as soon as they became an official couple, it seemed as if their relationship just fizzled out. I feel as if this series should have ended a few books ago. On a positive note though, I love love loved the ending!! It gives me hope for the final book. Oh I hope Sookie ends up with Sam, I have a strong feeling she will ;)

I felt I kept waiting for the plot to begin and found I was almost 3/4 of the way through and nothing had happened yet. First few books in this series were the best.

Book was okay but things are starting to drag. I miss the spice between Sookie and Eric. I agree that Ms. Harris needs to wrap up this series.

Have to agree with some of the posts that the ending for me gave the book 3 out of 5 stars. Again, just a quick fun read without any thought to it. I am even beginning to appreciate that Harris reiterates things that happened in other books since I can barely remember. For the one person who wrote that she "worried about the series since the plot becomes more and more convoluted," I say the ending stopped that. The ending even ends the long lingering suspicion about Sam. Naturally, the only question left open (so that we keep coming back for more) is Eric!
