Charm Posted August 8, 2009 Posted August 8, 2009 I think Eric Northman is my favourite character. He makes Edward Cullen look like dry toast!! What a lovely way to put it! So true! I adore Eric! I think he meant Eric, Sookie knows that Bill loves her, but she's never been sure about Eric's feelings because he never really expresses them I agree. I think Eric truely does love her, he's just a bit too wary of expressing his feelings toward her. I really hope this is the case anyway! I'm hoping this is the way Ms Harris carries on the story and can't wait til the new book comes out! Quote
chesilbeach Posted August 9, 2009 Posted August 9, 2009 Sookie looks like threatening the dominance of Twilight on the forums at the moment ... at least Eric Northman does! I guess once the first TV series finishes in the UK, we'll be back to looking forward to the New Moon film, and the attention will revert back to Twilight again Quote
Stephanie2008 Posted August 9, 2009 Posted August 9, 2009 I'm so tempted to look at the spoilers. I'm hoping that the first seven books will be here on monday (I have read the first one but need the next six, having already got the last too. I'm dying to know what happens! Quote
lissy85 Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 its definatly worth picking this up, if your hooked on the series the books are fantastic Quote
catwoman Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 I was going to reserve the first book in the series as my best friend just said she read them and found them really good. But they don't have the first book in the series to reserve in my local library Quote
chesilbeach Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 Just found an entry on fantasticfiction for a new Sookie book due out in October - it's called A Touch of Dead and is a collection of sort stories. Details here: http://www.fantasticfiction.co.uk/h/charlaine-harris/touch-of-dead.htm Quote

Details here: http://www.fantasticfiction.co.uk/h/charlaine-harris/touch-of-dead.htm Thanks for this Chesil, I just added it to my wishlist Quote
Stephanie2008 Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 Is it stories that we haven't read before? I hope there's more Eric Quote
chesilbeach Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 Is it stories that we haven't read before? I hope there's more Eric I've just checked the Charlaine Harris website, and it says it's a collection of previously published short stories, but I've never read or seen any short stories, only the full novels, so I'm not sure where they were published before.

Weave Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 Is it stories that we haven't read before? I hope there's more Eric Stories we have not read before, that's right Stephanie, I think CH might have posted them on her site, I am looking forward to it Stories include 'Fairy Dust,' 'One Word Answer,' 'Dracula Night,' 'Lucky,' and 'Giftwrap.'

I'm hoping this is the way Ms Harris carries on the story and can't wait til the new book comes out! Sorry for the late reply, I think Eric loves Sookie a lot but as mentioned, he finds it hard to express his feelings, I think he is confused by his feelings he has for a 'breather', so a bit of conflict for him. Sookie knows Bill loves her but he has hurt her so much and I don't think she will trust him again, or as Chesil, peacefield and myself are all hoping, Sookie will hook up with Sam! Quote

I'm having Eric withdrawals here (Oh gawd .. that's not meant how it sounds! ) Quote
Stephanie2008 Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 I'm still only on Definitely Dead but Eric isn't in these books nearly enough Hoping some of the short stories might at least have him in Quote
AbielleRose Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 Eric is my favorite character (besides Sookie) in the books. From what I hear she has 3 more books left to come out in the series. I'm excited for the next one! Quote

Weave Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 After that ending I can believe it! I know, it was very much a 'what?' ending for me Quote
Nicola Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 I know, it was very much a 'what?' ending for me Me too! I was hoping for another chapter, but no such luck....... Quote
AbielleRose Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 I just got an email from my book store this morning that the newest, A Touch of Dead, will be coming out on October 6th and is now avaliable for pre-order! It is actually a collection of short stories about Sookie and the vamps. Hopefully it will hold me over until the next in the series comes out! Quote
Kimmy619 Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 I finished the last book last night and I really cannot wait for the next one!! Quote
Heather Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 I finished the last book last night and I really cannot wait for the next one!! Same here we are going to have a serious case of withdrawal syptoms:cry2: Quote
Stephanie2008 Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 I'm not that far yet, I'm only on All Together Dead so still have two more to read Quote
Kimmy619 Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 The last page of the last book was brilliant! Definately left me wanting more. Quote
chesilbeach Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 Same here we are going to have a serious case of withdrawal syptoms:cry2: It's bizarre how many of us have struggled to find something else to read that captures the imagination like these books. I too struggled, although I took the excellent BCF advice and read the Kelley Armstrong Women of the Otherworld books afterwards, and this kept me going for a while, and was then in exactly the same situation. It's been tricky getting interested in any other books, but thankfully I've now found something completely different that I'm hooked on. Quote
