General Southern Vampire Mysteries Discussion #1: That's what the show is based on!

Thanks for the thread, Andie.
I totally need to go on with the books. I loved the first one but I haven't yet convinced myself to read the next one.

I'm ordering the books pretty soon. I want to try and read them before the TV show comes out. (Which, if I waited until it was on U.K TV, would take forever )

Does anyone else think, that the covers are insanely pretty?
I really love the covers of the books. They're much better than a lot of other book covers. And in my opinion, they totally fit the whole world that Charlaine created with her books.

They are different, that's for sure. Never seen covers like this, and they are pretty!

I 'own' the first set with the smaller pictures but more in them. But I like both sets.
I mostly thought of Dead to the World, because I like the way they made the moon glittering and that the surface is different from the rest of the cover.

The style is like folk art paintings where prospective and realism is not so important. I like the covers cause they have an innocent, but playful, honesty about them.

On the first book that is Sookie and Bill ( he can levitate on the books ).
