About this book
If you think your family relationships are complicated, think again: you haven't seen anything like the ones in Bon Temps, Louisiana. Sookie Stackhouse is dealing with a whole host of family problems, ranging from her own kin demanding a place in her life, to her lover Eric's vampire sire. And Sookie's tracking down a distant relation of her ailing neighbour (and ex), vampire Bill Compton. In addition to the family issues complicating her life, the Shreveport werewolf pack has asked her for a special favour. But this favour for the wolves has dire results for Sookie, who is still recovering from the trauma of her abduction during the Fairy War.

I've been wondering all the previous books what Eric/Sookie relationship would be like and I got more then I bargained for. I just finished the book, so I'd like to mention the strange ending - I can just see Eric's perception if he walks into Sookie's bedroom to find her sleeping on the bed with two male full blown fairies. That's a little weird, and has some interesting sexual connotations if you ask me. I don't think the whole \"cousin\" \"grandfather\" thing really means as much to fairies...

If you're reading this, you probably know the plot of Dead in the Family, at least generally: Sookie's still with Eric (thank God!), the Weres are still having problems adjusting to being \"out\", and Sookie's fairy cousin Claude has come for a visit...or rather, to move in with Sookie. When a fresh body turns up on Sookie's property, things take an uneasy turn as it seems someone is setting Sookie up; meanwhile, Eric's maker shows up in Bon Temps, pulling Eric out of Sookie's life and...

So, this is another review where my thoughts were so scattered in the wake of reading that I had to use sub-headings. The following review is pretty spoiler-free if you haven't yet read 'Dead in the Family' - but there are **SPOILERS** if you haven't read books 1 - 9. *****Sookie VS. Fan Expectation***** I love Charlaine Harris, and I especially love her `Southern Vampire; Sookie Stackhouse' series. I discovered these books around the same time that I read the first `Twilight'. After reading...

Hold your hats and pay attention!!! Sookie is back and I loved it. This is not as humorous, or trivial as most of the other books. This one is seriously good, with a great mystery to boot. I am sorry if people don't like her being tied to Eric, I just let the book carry me to a place I like to visit and see people who have become friends. I read it in one sitting and was very sorry to get to the last page. This series gets better and better, the last one was not as good as I thought it should...

\"Dead in The Family\" isn't a bad book. It was fun to visit and catch up with Sookie and Eric...and Bill had a nice little plot going on. Unfortunately it was all little plots, nothing really moved the story arc forward. I didn't find the story to be boring as some have mentioned in their reviews but I also didn't find anything really important happened. In this book: -Sookie and Claude the fairy get better aquainted. -In one of the best parts of the book, Sookie gets to know Hunter,...
