Sookie Stackhouse is back! The mind-reading vampire-dating, small-town cocktail waitress from small-town Louisiana returns in her fourth Southern Vampire Mystery. Life is never simple for Sookie Stackhouse, despite (or maybe because of) the fact that she always tries to do the right thing. Maybe that's why, when she comes across a semi-naked vampire on the road home from work, she doesn't just drive on by, even though she knows it almost certainly means trouble. Turns out the vampire hasn't a clue as to who he is. But Sookie does. It's Eric, still as scary and sexy - and dead - as the day she first met him. But now that he has amnesia, Eric is sweet, vulnerable, and in need of Sookie's help - because whoever took his memory now wants his life. Sookie's investigation into why leads straight into a dangerous battle among witches, vampires and werewolves. But the greater danger could be to Sookie's heart - because the kinder, gentler Eric is very difficult to resist ..
I think i enjoyed this book the most - Mostly cause Bill isn't there much in it and Eric is there - a lot.
It couldn't have started out better - you know the book will be great when Bill has left in the beginning itself.
And then Eric - i love the dynamic between Eric and Sookie - and the descriptions are, ahem, hot as well. I did kinda shake my head in disappointment when she first decided that jumping Eric was good, but then well, i guess this was going to happen eventually. And the whole memory loss thing really helped, i guess.
Sookie didn't get beaten up much in this book - which is a good change from the previous 3.
There's a lot more supernatural characters in this book - which means the coming stories will be great.
The best thing about the book is that it had 2 stories - Jason's disappearance and Eric's memory loss, and both played out seamlessly even though they didn't have anything to do with each other. Plus, it left a lot of questions to be answered in the next books - Will Eric remember, and then what? Will Alice find out about Debbie - and then what? Will Jason turn every full moon. How will all of this change Sookie and her relationship with these men in her life.
I do hope there's more of Eric and Sookie tho - it makes much more interesting reading than Sookie and Bill ever did and they seem great together.
