You know, I must say that I have never been inclined to see Twilight the movie or read the books.  Maybe it’s because all of the hype has turned me off  or perhaps it’s because I was bitten by… or rather taken with another series first.

That series is the Sookie Stackhouse novels by Charlaine Harris.  From the very first book (Dead until dark), to the current one I am reading (Dead to the world), I find myself obsessively drawn into Sookie’s world of super natural beings and vampire love.

I sheepishly have to admit that I finished the last book in 1 day.  Even my husband was impressed.  The fact of the matter is, I couldn’t put it down.  Literally.  I had to know what would happen next.

Even better?  A television series called True Blood (HBO) that is based on the Sookie Stackhouse series.  Husb and I are hooked on this series.  We are waiting rather impatiently for the show to return in June.  One of the best reasons to watch:  Stephen Moyer (aka Vampire Bill) is very yummy.   His chemistry with Anna Paquinn (aka Sookie) is out of this world H-O-T!
