Olly Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Ah - I guessed that's what happened, I was watching it yesterday having recorded it, and was so frustrated when it cut out just before the end. I am really enjoying it, it gets better and better - I normally don't watch horror movies or anything like this, but it's somehow not so scary because the vampires are 'real' people. Sort of.

Griffin Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Righty, just got book 9 to finish reading then I'll have read them all. If anybody wants to borrow them, feel free. Oh my giddy aunt! They're brilliant books I think book 4 is my favourite Series 1 follows book 1, series 2 book 2 so there's plenty of material left to make years and years worth of True Blood Has anybody else read them?

Olly Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Are the books really good? I read somewhere that they're not ... I love the series so much that I'm afraid the books might spoil it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmmaJC Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Are the books really good? I read somewhere that they're not ... I love the series so much that I'm afraid the books might spoil it. The books are fun actually, they really capture the voice of the South. Don't expect great fiction, because you'll not find it but they are a quick, fun read. Far, far better than the Twilight series, at least with these you're not screaming "Pathetic girl! PATHETIC GIRL!" at each page - Clarissa, ex-batt - Jenniger, ex-batt - Nigella, ex-batt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Are the books really good? I read somewhere that they're not ... I love the series so much that I'm afraid the books might spoil it. They are good especially if you love the Sookie/Bill/Eric love triangle. There are some fab new characters introduced too. Others that you see on telly don't feature as much but Alan Ball said they had to flesh out those parts for tv because otherwise Sookie was in every scene. Sookie narrates the books so she's everywhere in those. The tv show doesn't follow the books to the letter, there are some big differences but I actually prefer the way the story goes on the telly in some circumstances. It'll be fun to see where Alan Ball takes the changes he made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lisa33 Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I can't read the books as it will totally ruin the tv series for me. I always prefer reading to watching tv /films but rarely find a film or tv show that is as good as the book. I'm really enjoying the tv show so don't want to ruin it for myself. I'll just have to wait a year or two before I read them . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 My boss (who loves the series) has watched it all online now and asks when the next season (number 3 he thinks) will be available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmmaJC Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I read them all in a fortnight. Pretty much the same here... except for the last one. I got to the bit where the Thing Which Must Not Be Mentioned happened, and had to fling it aside. I only read it when bribed into it by my sister. Those books are Soma, I swear. - Clarissa, ex-batt - Jennifer, ex-batt - Nigella, ex-batt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitchens Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Truly addicted Love True Blood and watched Twilight this afternoon on DVD. I'm Hooked! Edward or Vampire Bill i'm not fussed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chucky Mama Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Are the True Blood books as sexually explicit as the TV series. Wondering if DD could read them but she is only 13 going on 14 and I certainly wouldn't let her watch the TV series. Too saucy for her Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Not as graphic because it's only through Sookies eyes, so no Jason getting his kit off every few minutes, but there is still a small amount of naughtiness. I wouldn't let a 13 year old read it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
