Product Description:
Sookie's boyfriend has been very distant-in another state, distant. Now she's off to Mississippi to mingle with the underworld at Club Dead-a little haunt where the vampire elite go to chill out. But when she finally finds Bill-caught in an act of betrayal-she's not sure whether to save him...or sharpen some stakes.

So very first off the only reason I'm even wasting my time with these books is because I am totally hooked on the HBO series and I don't want to wait years to find out what happens (even though the show is really nothing like the books)...SPOILER ALERT!!! The smartest thing Sookie has done thus far is when she "rescinded" (took back) the invitation into her house from Bill and Eric, which by the way I have never read a vampire book where that is even possible. I keep hoping one of these books will actually be a good read, but holy cow I'm having a hard time justifying the waste of time!

I liked this almost as much as my favorite so far in this series, (book 4 - Dead to the World).
Sookie's boyfriend, Vampire Bill goes out of town on business and turns up missing. Sookie agrees to help find him and works with Eric (Bill's Vampire Boss) and several others, including a werewolf named Alcide.
Finding out the circumstances why Bill left in the very first place (from Eric) leaves Sookie upset and somewhat heatbroken, but Sookie's a good person and wants to do the right thing.
Sookie heads to "Club Dead" to listen in on the minds of others to see if she can learn anything about Bill's disappearance. Of course Sookie gets herself in many dangerous and deadly situations during her hunt for Bill, but makes more friends (and a couple enemies) in the supernatural world along the way.
In this series, you're drawn into the supernatural world, learning much more about the Vampire heirarchy, politics and culture. This installment is smart, sexy, humorous, fun and gripping ---as are all the others in this series.

OK - I'm officially hooked on the Sookie Stackhouse series. "Club Dead" did not disappoint. I know some readers were disappointed with Bill, but you have to admit it's pretty funny that even a dead guy will cheat - come on, you're alive for eternity but can't stay faithful for a lousy couple of months!!!! Snappy dialogue, great characters, total escape. I'd be reading book 4 right now but this series has become so popular with HBO's Trueblood that the book stores in my neck of the woods have sold out! I'll be stalking my mailman until it hits my mailbox.

When I started reading the book, I had already read some reviews and knew that Bill and Sookie were facing a tough time. I didn't want to read it, because I thought they shouldn't change in their relationship at all.
Boy was I wrong: Introducing Alcide and more of Eric, it makes for better scenes and also helps Sookie's development and growing up. She seemed sulky at times and stubborn when she couldn't get Bill to do what she wanted - but this book explains more about the nature of the *beast* and how they are trying to fit into the mortal world. I can't wait to read the other books, but if you were hesitant about picking up another Sookie Stackhouse volume after book 2 - give it another go with Club Dead!

Phew! This is a marked improvement from "Living Dead in Dallas," the muddled sequel to Charlaine Harris's terrific very first Sookie Stackhouse "mystery." I'm putting the word in quotes, because that's still the area in which Harris falls short for me. Oh, there's a dead body all right, but how it got dead and whodunit is ultimately a big "who cares?" That said, "Club Dead" is a fun ride, much more in keeping, stylistically, with the very first in the series. And we're introduced to a great new character, a hunky werewolf who may or may not get in the way of Sookie and Bill's romance. One thing that does bother me a little: Harris is remarkably sadistic to her heroine. This is the third Sookie Stackhouse book, and the third in which she's beaten to a bloody pulp. Literally. OK, James Bond gets beaten up on a regular basis, as do a lot of other detectives/spies etc., but Sookie's just a normal person. Sure, she keeps some dangerous company, but there seems to be a mean streak in Harris that I'm not all that comfortable with. "Club Dead" renewed my interest in this series, but I'm hoping that as time goes by, Harris is a little less hard on Sookie. I'm sure Sookie is, too.
