Living Dead in Dallas by Charlaine Harris
1.0

I gave this series another chance because in the reviews to the first book, people said it gets better. But I found this book worse than the first. The author introduced a completely new, dangerous creature, but does nothing with the potential that comes with it.
She turns up, attacks Sookie so she has an excuse to get naked in front of Vampires and then turns up again at the end to magically solve a plot that would otherwise have been too... complicated(?) to resolve? I don't get it.
Also, Sookie continues to romanticise abusive behaviour.
I still like the ideas, especially the Fellowhip of the Sun. Great potential there, but it's not used. Well, apparently this isn't the goal here.
