Product Description:
New in the “addicting” New York Times bestselling series featuring Sookie Stackhouse.
After the natural disaster of Hurricane Katrina and the manmade explosion at the vampire summit, everyone—human and otherwise—is stressed, including Louisiana cocktail waitress Sookie Stackhouse, who is trying to cope with the fact that her boyfriend Quinn has gone missing.
It’s clear that things are changing—whether the weres and vamps of her corner of Louisiana like it or not. And Sookie—Friend to the Pack and blood-bonded to Eric Northman, leader of the local vampire community—is caught up in the changes.
In the ensuing battles, Sookie faces danger, death, and once more, betrayal by someone she loves. And when the fur has finished flying and the cold blood finished flowing, her world will be forever altered.

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - From Dead to Worse - My least favorite
I have enjoyed all of the Books 1-7, but I am very disappointed in From Dead to Worse.
This book read like a guide book of Sookie-land. It reads as if Ms. Harris could not really think up a good enough plot to carry throughout the story, so she had some rather quick fix situations that only took minutes to resolve, with lots of detail about nothing leading up to them, and too much backstory being told to us rather than shown to us in action and dialogue.

Rating:  - Death and Destruction, but Life Goes On in Bon Temps!
Sookie continues to deal with vampires and their hunters, with weres and her troublesome brother, with deadly supernatural politics that mere humans shouldn't easily survive. But the one thing Sookie is, is a survivor. After the big explosion in the last book that took out many an immortal and powerful vamp, Sookie is back at home in Bon Temps, LA, working at Merlotte's Bar for her friend and boss, Sam, and worrying about nothing more than the double wedding of her friend Halleigh and Portia Bellefleur. ...

Rating: - One of the best of the series
Life threatening and life changing events happen in this newest mystery. Sookie finds herself in the middle of two wars. The werewolf war that she mediates and the vampire war with an unpleasant surprise about who is helping the Las Vegas vampires to take over the Louisiana empire. She also finds new relatives to help make up for her disappointment with her brother. Lots of changes happen in a short period of time during this book. Very exciting!
Rating:  - Mixed Feelings.
This book gave me some hope for the Sookie/Eric eventual happily ever after. These two belong together, and I really hope it happens. I'm glad to see some things about their storyline partially resolved in this book, and I'm thrilled about the guy she dumped. He was hot and all, but something about him was just too white bread for me. He had kind of a "Riley" feel (Buffy reference) that was highly icky for me.
One thing that does puzzle me about this book, and I'm not quite sure how to take it. ... Read More
Rating: - wrapping up loose ends
I've been a fan from the first, and I have to say I was pretty happy with this book. I feel that Harris is MAYBE getting back on track with this series. The past couple books have slowly been wrapping up the millions of storylines this series has been dragging behind it - kind of like Jacob in A Christmas Carol. I'm hopeful that we've seen the last of Alcide and the gang, along with the werepanthers and a lot of the extras that went along with those gangs. If I were sookie I think I'd get my Grandpa to kill ... Read More
