This is the 5th book in the Sookie Stackhouse series (Southern Vampires).
It's the full moon and Jason joins the shifters in Hotshot, then the shootings start!!
A girl shifter is shot dead, then Calvin Norris, the Sam! So it seems that a serial killer is on the loose and looking for shifters in specific.
The shifters in Hotshot suspect Jason, and Sookie is afraid for his life..
Now Merlotte's has no bouncer with Sam being injured so he asks Sookie to ask for Eric's help as a favor, so Eric sends them a vampire bouncer/bartender.
Then Sookie's life becomes endangered and trouble seems to look for her in every corner, as usual!
The were's have an important ceromony that Sookie is asked to attend and is dragged in to were politics unintentionally!
Then she meets a new kind of supe that intrigues her like no other!
A lot of action and events take place in this book, although it seems that every supe that lays eyes on Sookie goes nuts over her, she gets kissed by most of them too!
I mostly liked this book like I liked the whole series, Sookie has become really familiar to me, and she kinda grew on me.. I got addicted.. I already started book 6.. although this is not my favorite book of the series it has it's good moments.. what I didn't like was Quinn.. I mean the way he looks (I mean the way he is described), over 6 feet tall, bare chested bald guy.. come on I can't shake the vision of a genie or Mr. Clean from my head.. he just needs a gold earring!! YUCK!
I don't know why he shaves everyday and sometimes twice a day!! Does that mean he is not really bald just shaving his head!! I hope so.. I mean this is fiction why not make guys perfect :)
This is what ended me giving the book 4 stars instead of 5..
The 6th books starts with Quinn.. God help me!
A quote I liked by Eric.. it just made me laugh..
"Sookie, you have to understand that for hundreds, thousands, of years we have considered ourselves better than humans, separate from humans.” He thought for a second. “Very much in the same relationship to humans as humans have to, say, cows. Edible like cows, but cute, too.”

I really have to get back to this series. I love Sookie!!
Thanks for this review...I'll have to read one of this series as I'm not familiar. You make me want to read it.
I do adore Eric....
Beth, yeah I love her too..
wisteria, my pleasure, ooooh please do, it is soooooo fun!
Vickie, yeah I adore the amnesic Eric even more.. after him I like Sam believe it or not.. I just feel for the guy!
DeSeRtRoSe: Oh I definitely have a hewgah crush on Sam. He is a sweetie who pines quietly for Sookie. I can empathize.
I have book two coming soon. I can't wait to read it...I need to before the next season of TRUE BLOOD hits! I am trying to stay away from TV/movies again this year.
YAY Vickie... that's great!!! that's 2 for Sam.. I usually hear everyone is crazy about Eric and Sam doesn't seem to get any attention.. so now we are here to the rescue :)
Oh J Kaye.. please do read the book !! I'm sure you will enjoy this series very much!
Thanks for the link Desert Rose. Can't wait to see if you like the book as much as I do.
