Dead as a Doornail by Charlaine Harris

This novel is the fifth book in the Sookie Stackhouse series (I told you I was going through them quickly). In this novel a sniper is shooting shifters in Bon Temps and the neighboring WerePanthers believe Sookie's brother Jason, a new addition to their pack, may be involved. Meanwhile, Sookie also becomes involved in the politics of the Shreveport Werewolf pack.

While I am still enjoying this books I have to allow myself a mini-rant. I hate soap-operas and dramas because of the constant back and forth of relationships. This is something that's starting to bother me about these books. It seems like every books since Sookie breaks up with Bill adds one more character to stand in line for Sookie's attentions. So far we have Bill, Eric, Sam, Alcide, Calvin and now Quinn seems all too interested in Sookie. I was okay when it was just Bill, Eric and Sam, but this is getting to be ridiculous. I just want her to get back together with Bill already!

Okay, rant over. Despite this irritation, I'm still really enjoying the books. I only have three more to read before I'm completely caught up. Then a new book comes out May 5.
