Sookie Stackhouse novels, take 3

[cimorene]

Although they are extremely hilarious, and their universe/premise is both fairly unique and really cool, there are several problems with these books that I can't get past, to wit:

1. Sookie is such a goddamned Mary Sue that I keep expecting her to get sorted into Sparklypoo



2. Skanky gender issues



3. Unintentionally funny and kind of boring genre-formulaic Supernatural Romance smut, although at least there was not as much of it as in the first book



4. The eye-buggingly ouch descriptions of what people are wearing



5. A bizarrely small quantity of non-white people considering the setting, which is thankfully not reflected in True Blood

But on the other hand, the books are very funny, and they do offer:

1. Eric



2. Bubba



3. Eric



4. Bill/Sookie/Eric (not really, but at least they make it easier to drift away thinking about it, alright? It could happen later, but they don't really seem like the onscreen-threesome kind of book)



5. Eric
