Deadlocked (Sookie Stackhouse, #12)

by Charlaine Harris

[zooloo1983]

So I had to reflect on this and the series as a whole before I wrote a review.

If it wasn't for the fact I was listening to these on audio book as I was driving and I enjoyed the woman who read them and all her accents I'm not sure I would be here now about to read the last book.

The book seems to bound along but to nothing.

So we a murder that Eric is accused of, so you feel this will be quite prominent in the book but we bounce around and around with a lot of other sub plots which some how all link together but Sookie can never see it.

I was with everyone else rooting for Sookie and Eric to work through the arranged marriage but it looks bleak. And when Eric couldn't understand why she saved Sam well that was a big no no. (I'm also rooting for Sam!)

The big let down for me was in a very few pages we find out it was Claude all along who set Eric up...remember the murder which then you forget about,it was just too rushed. Why put Sookie in that position if you "love" her. And then all the fairies disappear. There were too many loop holes and too many unanswered questions.

I am glad that I'm now on. The last book. I loved the TV show and as much as I would have loved to seen some characters to have come to life on TV I do think I am in preference to that. But I'm also sad to think all the time I'm invested into everyone it will be sad to say bye. Just hope the last book as a bit of umph in it!!!
