This is just a list of what happened to several of the characters from the Sookie Stackhouse series after the last book. I don't really remember a lot of these characters, and I'm not sure why it wasn't just an appendix at the end of the last book, but it was a quick read.

#BookChain2024 @TheAromaofBooks I found a book with a lower rating than the last! 😂

TheAromaofBooks Great progress!!! ...kind of 😂 10mo

1. This was such a waste of paper. Harris could have put this “book” at the end of Dead Ever After. To me it was just greed on the part of the author and publisher.
2. Psyche!
3. Banana bread and coffee
4. Central time
5. Purple Summer

I can‘t even begin... what an absolute waste of time. This was nothing more then greed on the part of the publisher and author. It could have been reduced to 4 pages and put at the end of the final book.

I just reread the whole Sookie Stackhouse series in like 11 days. I love these characters so much.

Day5 #photoadayNov16 #threwitacrosstheroom I've never thrown a book but after loving the first 7-8 books of the Sookie Stackhouse series, seeing it decline, disliking the final book & who Sookie ended up with, it wasn't until Harris put out this crappy book that I got mad. That she charged readers $18 for a few bullet points of what happened to the characters after the series seemed greedy & almost like she disliked both her characters & readers.

BooksTeasAndBookishThings Never read this because it was such an awful and rushed ending in her last book! 8y
readinginthedark I read an interview with her where she said she wrote her plan for the end of the series before she finished the first book, so that no one would influence how it turned out. I can respect that, except I don't think she took the evolution of the characters themselves into account. 8y
sprainedbrain I couldn't agree more! This series started off so well, and just went downhill in the last few books. Ugh. 8y

DebinHawaii @BooksTeasAndBookishThings I would recommend not bothering. A friend bought it & loaned me her copy and it is rushed and awful and very unimaginative and truly uninspired and somewhat mean-spirited endings for some great characters. 8y
DebinHawaii @readinginthedark I agree. I can respect having a plan and sticking to it but if she wanted to go that way, she should have moved the characters along with her so it didn't seem like a slap-it-on ending. 8y
DebinHawaii @sprainedbrain Yes! It was disappointing. 😁 8y
The_Literary_Jedi Never read any of the books, watched the series however and enjoyed it up to a point 8y
MrsV After I heard who she ended up with, I can't bring my self she o read the last 3 or 4 books. 8y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa YES! This is the series that taught me the power of DNF! I stuck through it to the end, sure it would turn around, it'd all make sense in the end, every rationale I could make. I should have jumped ship when it started to go downhill, but I stuck with it & at the end realized that I had wasted my time. It was the first time I realized, I would have been better to quit while I was ahead & learned the hard lesson of listening to my instincts. ... 8y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa ...I still hate how it ended, and the the way she spun it to drag out the Bill vs Eric vibe for the TV audience. (Personally I think that's why the ending of the books was such a curveball, she wanted to keep the other two in the running because they were both so popular in the show and it was still going strong as she wrote those final books), but it did teach me an important lesson about letting some books go...which I GUESS means I owe her a TY 8y
BookishMarginalia I stopped reading the series midway too. I did love those first few ones, though. (Couldn't stand the changes to it in the HBO adaptation) 8y
Verity I got really cranky at this one too - although I picked it up for cheaps at the charity shop! I read the whole series - they're like popcorn 🍿- easy to consume lots but no real substance. That said I really quite liked them though I haven't reread any of them! I didn't mind who she ended up with (although it felt very rushed), but then I thought all the other options were worse in terms of being true to her character. 8y
AmandaL Yes! I bought and read this out of loyalty to the series, but I didn't love this book, or who Sookie ended up with either. 8y
