Often, Sookie describes him at different stages of cold (e.g., “ cold, colder, coldest“). Bill was so stiff throughout the entire book. She’s judgemental at times and she has thoughts that she shouldn’t, but that’s what makes her a real person.īill’s character was so dull, and the romance was so blah. She has fits of rage where she rubs everyone up the wrong way. She has weak moments where she’s paralysed by fear and avoids her problems. Part of what I like most about Sookie is that she’s flawed and hence, a more realistic character. “But there’s a juicy artery in your groin,” he said after a pause to regroup, his voice as slithery as a snake on a slide. For example, here’s a snippet of conversation between Bill and Sookie:
She’s sassy and not afraid to speak her mind. She’s not afraid to stand up for herself by outsmarting opponents and physically fighting back. Overall, I like this book more than I dislike it. There are aspects of the book that I absolutely love and aspects that I really don’t enjoy. I have a love/hate relationship with this book. Could Bill be the culprit or perhaps one of his dangerous friends? Then, there’s the series of women murdered in Bon Temps, all of who have Vampire bite marks. She’s attacked by a vampire, coerced into working for a century old vampire, and is simultaneously attracted to and fearful of Bill. She quickly learns Vampires are more dangerous that she thought. Things aren’t all rosy for Sookie though.
She’s opened minded about Vampires and because of her “disability” as she calls it, he cannot influence her like other humans. I stood, closed my eyes, breathed out the relief that was too profound for words.”īill is as curious about Sookie as she is about him. I opened my mind, let my gaurd down completely, relaxed. “ Not one man in a million would have allowed me the time without speaking. She is awed to find that she cannot hear his thoughts, something which she describes as: At the beginning of Dead Until Dark, Sookie is ecstatic when a Vampire comes into the bar and sits in her area.
That’ not all, in this alternate universe, Vampires have recently “come out of the coffin”, as Sookie puts it. Sookie’s not your average waitress though, she can read minds. Sookie is a waitress in a small town called Bon Temps in Louisiana, not too far from New Orleans. The series is about Sookie, surprise, surprise. Bill Compton, Dead Until Dark by Charlaine Harrisĭead Until Dark is the first book in the Sookie Stackhouse series.
