It has been awhile since I've updated my 101 list. I have actually put a lot of my items in progress and have just been a very bad blogger and not actually recorded what I've completed. I absolutely LOVE to read, that's why I wanted to read 101 books during the course of my to-do list.
My favorite books to read are series, I feel like I get to know the characters better and that I'm actually part of the story (yes I'm a total nerd and I know it, I just like to get lost in a good book). Since I'm a huge fan of the Twilight series, my friend suggested I read the Sookie Stackhouse series. So I bought the box set of them from Borders and sat down to read. I think I finished the 8 books in a week and a half. I guess there is a 9th book that didn't come in my box set that I still need to buy and read but I won't have time for awhile now that it's the holidays.
I have to say, I loved the series!! I didn't fall in love with the first book but the more I read the more I couldn't put the book down! Sookie is a strong willed young woman who slowly becomes more entwined in the supernatural world. The books follow along with her, uh, adventures with the supes. She falls in love, falls out of love, falls in lust, gets in trouble, picks up a second job, meets new friends, and enters into a world she hardly knew existed. If you haven't already read these books, please borrow them from the library or buy them at a bookstore. Totally worth the purchase and a great and easy read. Since the books are also the very popular True Blood HBO series, I can't wait to get my hands on the first 2 seasons to watch on a cold winter weekend!
