Great book! An unexpected joy.

I'm not sure what I was expecting when I requested this book. I had it sitting in my TBR pile for about 2 weeks while I got into something else. One evening I wanted something different and pulled this one out. What a treat! I didn't put it down until I was done with it. It wasn't a romance, nor a horror... kind of a light mix of the two. It was too dark, but not too light either. I liked that there was a bit of demention to the vampires and they were still 'demon-like' but not evil... just different creatures than humans with different needs, instincts, and lifestyles. A series I'll definitely continue to read.

I haven't seen the TV show 'True Blood' so cannot comment on the book in relation to that.
