I did not realize this was a short story collection so I am disappointed that the material in the book is not new. It would be good for new fans of the Sookie series but for long time fans it could be diappointing. I will be more careful in the future before buying.

Maybe it’s my fault for not paying more attention to what exactly was being released today but I had heard that the next Sookie book was to be released 10/6 and I didn’t waste any time to order it through my Kindle book. I am very disappointed to find that it is not the next novel in the Sookie series but is a book containing short stories involving Sookie. Not at all what I expected and I don’t like it at all.

Had I realized that this was just short stories that filled in gaps between books and that the stories had already been published, I would not have purchased this. As much as I enjoy the Sookie Stackhouse series this is a poor substitute for the next book in a great series.

I really was expecting a followup to book 9. I wish Charlaine Harriswish hadn’t made this book #10. This is just missing stories or maybe editor rejected chapters from previous Sookie Stackhouse books. Man! I read this book in four hours. Don’t look to clutch your fingers at every page. The stories are pretty light. I guess Charlaine Harris needed a go between book to make her publisher happy. Unfortunately, she wasn’t thinking about her fans.

I would’ve liked to have known this was not a continuation of the series BEFORE purchasing it! I feel cheated! The stories weren’t even that interesting to me. I called a friend that also ordered the book and told them what it was from the intro and they were disappointed as well. They asked me to read it and let them know whether to even open theirs. I called this morning and said, “NO!” She then returned hers when I explained a little more about it and I told her she could have mine just to see what it said because I don’t even want it. I talked to another friend that asked about it and told her what the book was about and she said she wouldn’t even waste her time reading it!
I feel I was cheated out of waiting all this time for the continuation of the series and this is what I got!! Now they say May 2010 for the continuation!? That was a dirty trick as far as I’m concerned! I saw nothing before hand that warned this was not a continuation of the series.
