A collection of Sookie Stackhouse stories which the popular television series True Blood is based on. Sookie Stackhouse is a small-time cocktail waitress in small-town Louisiana – cute and with a bubbly personality. But Sookie's got a bit of a disability: she can read minds. And that doesn't make her too dateable. Then along comes Bill: he's tall, dark and handsome and Sookie can't 'hear' a word he's thinking. He's exactly the type of guy she's been waiting for. But Bill has a disability of his own…he's a vampire.
