Just finished reading the second book in the Sookie Stackhouse series, Living Dead in Dallas. When a book has been turned into a movie or television series, I always prefer to read the book first. In this case, I hadn't known True Blood had been based on a book series until after I started watching the show. So I am now reading the books and catching up to where the show is now so I can stay ahead of it with the books. Up until now, no matter if I saw the show/movie first or read the books first, I always favor the books. When it comes to True Blood, I think the show is more entertaining, has better plots, more complex characters and a hotter vibe to it. The books feel as though there are many holes that could have been filled in better. It feels like something is missing, like there was more Charlaine could have and should have done as the Author. They are decent stories and I am able to keep myself involved until the end but they are lacking something.

Currently, my friend Michele and I are working on a bunch of small crochet projects. We are going to sell these items at a local Relay For Life Event. I'll be posting pictures of the items I make soon.
