Tyger Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 I went threw 7 pages, and I did not see the topic. So I hope I'm not re-posting it. I am currently reading the Charlaine Harris's novels "The Sookie Stackhouse Stories", which was made into the HBO series TrueBood. I find that the books and the tv show is totally different from each other. They keep some people alive in the tv show that they kill off in the books, some characters stay together or create a relationship that was already there in the tv show, some characters are more involved in the show compared to the novels, etc. I like them both in different ways. They have to be both credited for there own thing, I think. Has anyone been reading the books, or watching the show?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyger Posted November 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 I agree !!!! lol And he is such a softie for Sookie too it's adorable VERY!! I just started "Dead as a Doornail". I got really sad at the ending of the last book. Eric was such a sweet heart in it. <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnViOuSPoPpEt Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 oh it gets better and better.. that's why I can't figure out who I like more.. Quinn or Eric.. Bill is so old news.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AstralCrux Posted November 10, 2009 Report Share Posted November 10, 2009 I can't figure how they plan on explaining Amelia staying so long. (her excuse being Hurricane Katrina) The hurricane doesn't happen in the books until after Amelia comes down for the "visit." But, the TV series states it's already happened. I was shocked when Eric didn't kill the bartender, but Bill did. I'm thinking the TV series isn't going to follow the books pretty soon, and then I'll be extremely disappointed.

I find that the tv show isnt fallowing the books at all. Bill and Sookie don't stay together even that long... and vampires in the book still cant even consider marriage, but in the tv show its there. Sam mates with the Mundane in the book, but in the tv show hes basically running for her. There really different I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 Love the show and just bought the first book, I'll probably read it next. I have like 10 books downloaded on my kindle that I intend to read at some point though so *shrugs*, who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strange Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 I haven't read the books yet, but i've been watching the show since it came out and haven't missed an episode since so I think it's really good, this season is kinda awkward to watch cause it gives wiccan's a very poor image. Still though it is a great show and I still love it. My favorite characther is Alcide, cause he's level headed and intelligent. PLus werewolves are way cooler thn vamps. (But I still love vampires too) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both still very good tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
