Sookie Stackhouse Challenge

I started reading Sookie before there was a Tru Blood show but haven't read the last 3 or 4. I've wanted to go back to the beginning, skim through the first ones to catch up then read all the new-to-me books. Looks like this challenge will be perfect. The only way I can justify this one is the dates Beth chose. July 1, 2009 to June 30, 2010. Yea, I've still got time (ya right) to find my copies and a full year to read them all.


Beth at Beth Fish Reads has sign-ups ready. Click over and join up. Sookie is fun and quirky and she grows on you. I haven't watched the show so I can't compare.



I need to clean this up and get the graphic up but it will be enough to get signed up.....



1. Dead Until Dark
2. Living Dead in Dallas
3. Club Dead
4. Dead to the World
5. Dead as a Doornail
6. Definitely Dead
7. All Together Dead
8. From Dead to Worse
9. Dead and Gone

Now, the question is: Do we read the short stories found in anthologies?
