Didn't find it too bad. I enjoy reading the Sookie Stackhouse novels as I enjoy True Blood so much & I enjoy comparing the differences made between book & TV. The writing isn't spectacular, but it its not a shambles either & its written in a clever way that leaves you always wanting to know what's going to happen next. In comparison to the books before, I didn't enjoy the storyline as much but I'm hoping the next book will give me something more.
