Book Review of Dead in the Family (Sookie Stackhouse, Bk 10)

Dead in the Family (Sookie Stackhouse, Bk 10)
reviewed on + 7 more book reviews


This book marks the point where the Sookie Stackhouse series has begun to royally stink. It introduces several boring, annoying new characters whose roles are basically pointless. The pace is sluggish, the central mystery is a yawn, and the climax is predictable and ridiculous. It feels as if Harris rushed this one and/or was bored while writing it. Unfortunately, the next book in the series is even worse. Stick with the first nine, and hope that #12 is back to their high level of quality.
