The 12th book in the Sookie Stackhouse / True Blood franchise isn't filled with major revelations. We spend a lot of time with Sookie while she is running errands and dealing with everyday life in Bon Temps. Sookie's relationship with Eric is in trouble but Sookie doesn't seem to want to put any real effort towards keeping him so there's not as much tension building as there should be. There is also a ton of exposition in the book that isn't really necessary by book 12 of a series. WE ALL KNOW SOOKIE CAN READ MINDS. I don't know if maybe the book is loaded with backstory so that fans of True Blood won't get confused because the same characters are the in the books and the tv show but they have different plotlines and behaviors. Regardless, I was entertained but not enthralled.
