Definitely Dead by Charlaine Harris

Definitely Dead is the latest of the Sookie Stackhouse mystery/paranormal novels. In this outing, Sookie has a new boyfriend Quinn who is a were-tiger. She also has some adventures involving demons, fairies, vampires, and a very funny witch--who seems likely to return in the next book.

Sookie has to go to New Orleans to clean out her cousin's apartment. Her cousin Hadley was a vampire, but she is now definitely dead. Here death took place in a between books short story that appeared in an anthology. You can find out about Sookie books and stories on the Charlaine Harris website, here:

While Sookie is cleaning out Hadley's apartment, she gets involved in a feud between vampire clans as well as being stalked by some weres. Her new boyfriend Quinn helps her out of some tough spots, and her new witch friend helps her solve some of the mysteries she faces. Sookie also learns some things about Bill and from Bill (her first boyfriend and a vampire.) And, finally, Sookie also learns some things about herself.

There will be some weddings coming up in Bon Temps, and Sookie is looking forward to attending them. They will be written about in a forthcoming anthology, My Big Fat Supernatural Wedding, which unfortunately won't be out till the fall.

I really enjoyed the latest Sookie mystery, and I wish I didn't have to wait a year for another one.
