BLOG NUMBER FIVE

I am currently recreationally reading the Sookie Stackhouse series. (It is not one of the option books, (I am starting Lord Of the Flies upon book's completion), but it is the most current book I am reading. )

FROM DEAD TO WORSE - Charlaine Harris

Sookie Stackhouse is a telepathic waitress, living in Bon Temps Louisiana. Her first beau Bill turned out to have been sent by Sophie-Anne, vampire queen of Louisiana, and he pursued her out of orders (but he did fall in love with her), Eric her second love is a powerful Viking vampire, beautiful and dangerous, and had earned her love when he had amnesia and was a completely different person, (which he remembers nothing of), and Quinn is her boyfriend, he's a weretiger. Sookie has had a difficult time ever since a dark, pale, mysterious man went into the bar she worked in, Merlottes, and her life changed....

I'd helped save lives after the pyramid went down, and I was terrified I was now on the radar of people who might want me to spend my time in their service, using my telepathy for their purposes. Some of those purposes were good, and I wouldn't mind lending a hand in rescue services from time to time, but I wanted to keep my life to myself. I was alive; my boyfriend, Quinn, was alive; and the vampires most important to me had survived, too. As far as the troubles Sophie-Anne faced, the political consequences of the attack and the fact that supernatural groups were circling the weaked state of Louisiana like hyenas around a dying gazelle, I didn't think about it at all.

After a trying night of vampire politics, an assassination attempt on her, conflicting emotions, and a fight, Sookie goes up stairs in the hotel to bed. She gets into bed, but sleep does not come. She is waken by a telepathic message from Barry, a fellow telepath being used by vampires, telling her Jake, a Were turned into a vamp, was laying on the floor. The Fellowship of the Sun, a group of anti-vampire activists, placed bombs in the building. Sookie and Barry figure this out, and pull the fire alarm just in time for virtually all the humans to get close to getting out of the building, but not the vampires, it was day time. Sookie raced up to her two friends', Eric and Pam's, hotel room and helped wake Eric enough to cover him in a huge cloak and escape outside. After the bombs went off, many people were hidden and dead. Sookie and Barry used their powers to discover bodies, living, they can hear their minds, dead, there is nothing, and vampire is a space. Sookie didn't want the police to realise her powers.
