Helly Welly Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 OH and DD went to see Jace Everett, he who sings the theme tune, last night in Nottingham. They said he was excellent, it was really good of the venue to let in DD as she's only 10! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griffin Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 I'm about 3/4 of the way through and trying to save the rest for later as a reward for shoe shopping with all four girls I could still slap Sookie for being so silly at times Eric is very sweet in it though, all blokes should be like Eric, he's perfect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griffin Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 Well I finished it last night. I can't say it's one of my favourite of the books, book 4 securely holds that title without a shadow of a doubt! It just didn't feel right, I can't really explain the feeling I got from it. It was lacking in warmth. It felt empty. Sam didn't sound like Sam. Pam wasn't as funny, neither was Eric although he didn't have a lot to laugh about. The Faeries are just annoying me now, I prefer vampire politics and relationships. Hunter was in it and I liked that bit. Oh well, only another year to wait for book 11 My chum Mindy is borrowing this book tomorrow but who wants it after that?

laurmurf Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 I just thought y'all might like to know something about Sookie that certainly isn't clear from the telly series but is from the books: when she says she's a size 10 on a good day and a size 12 on a bad one these are American sizes. Our Sookie is a size 14-16 in real English. Made me feel lots better when i realised that, girls with curves are officially vamp-a-licious!

US sizes are 1 down from ours,which makes her a 12-14 Still nice & curvy,but not as bootylicious as most of us over here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laurmurf Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 sorry, but you're not quite right there, Cinnamon. I've just come back from the States and the conversion guides, my experience (and all the clothes i bought over there! ) show a 4 size difference: an American 10 is a British 14 and a Yank 12 is a 16. That's why they go on about 'size zero' so much, it equates to a British size 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted May 21, 2010 Author Share Posted May 21, 2010 It actually differs from state to state,to make things even more complicated. I used to work in a frock shop,so have a bit of first hand experience selling to American customers.....they certainly didn't like having to 'size up' as it were (& who can blame them!) The more modern areas have a 2 size difference,so a 0 is a 4,a 12 a 16 & so forth But the less progressive states,including much of the deep south,where Sookie comes from, make their clothes bigger,so its a 1 size difference,on average. Thats why the conversion charts are so unreliable,& why buying American clothes is a nightmare for us over here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickcluck Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 I've just read 'Ice cold grave' from the Harper Connolly series, has anyone else read these? I think there are 3 or 4 in the series, not nearly as many as the Sookie Stackhouse books...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
