Club Dead [Southern Vampire Mysteries, Book 3] by Charlaine Harris

The novels in the Sookie Stackhouse series just keep getting better and this third one is the best yet.
Club Dead is fast- paced and the characters are more interesting than ever. There is a strong blend of horror, mystery and romance. Harris ups the emotional stakes [no pun intended] in this third book and the ending makes you want want to give Sookie a high five because she FINALLY sticks up for herself.
Harris gives, Sookie a great narrative voice and the complexity of this novel will keep you turning the pages until you finish the book.

Grade: A

Synopsis Sookie's boyfriend has been very distant-in another state, distant. Now she's off to Mississippi to mingle with the underworld at Club Dead-a little haunt where the vampire elite go to chill out. But when she finally finds Bill-caught in an act of betrayal-she's not sure whether to save him...or sharpen some stakes.
