Dead as a Doornail [Southern Vampire Mysteries, Book 5]by Charlaine Harris

After two not so great books it was nice to read something exciting and entertaining.

The fifth book deals a lot less with Eric and Bill, they just tend to make cameo appearances. It has a lot more to do with shifters and werewolves. Giving us a great view into the the world of other super natural creatures.

Sookie is more mature and independent and has a new sense of self confidence. The plot in, Dead as a Doornail is not as strong as the previous books in this series but that is part of the charm. There is a lot less romance in this book so don't expect it, although to be fair you don't realize the lack of it until AFTER you finish reading the book and go over it in your head.

I would classify this particular book as more mystery than romance.

Enjoyable and worth the read.


Grade: A
