I can't wait to see Alcide too! In my imagination he's a little bit "biker guy" and maybe a little "lumberjack" in there too! lol! (I don't know where I get this stuff from) What about Quinn?? I know he's not till book 7, but he was one of my favorites.

I was surprised at who they cast to play Alcide since he's so different from the books description, but I am familiar with the actor and after I thought about it a little, I think he'll be a good fit for the character.
blondie711 - I love Quinn, too! I can't wait to see who they cast for him, even though it's quite a few seasons away to begin thinking about it.
I received the short story collection for Christmas and I'm looking forward to reading it, but I'm not expecting it to measure up to the regular books in the series.
Also, I just started getting into another Charlaine Harris series, the Harper Connelly Mysteries. It's very different than the Sookie books (more serious, mostly realistic characters and stories), but still really good; I finished the first book in just a few days and am getting into the second. If you're into mystery, I'd recommend them.

@blondie711 Quinn is another fave of mine..that sookie, just a lucky girl
@dollface yea i think i was just in that time and place where i really really wanted to read another book since the tv series was getting so good, and i had already read and reread the whole series, i wanted the short story collection to be BAM!!! lol, but i am ready for the next book..i think it comes out in may..
Ive been tempted to read the Harper Connolly books also, but not sure if i am going to like them as much as the sookie books. maybe ill give them a try.

I received the first two books as a gift from my best friend since she knows how much I love the Sookie books and I wasn't sure if I would like them, but I was pleasantly surprised.
I'm close to being done with the second one and I really want to get the other two (I think there are four in the series?), but I have another book I need to read first.

Oh good! That makes me so happy! After I bought the first one, which I didn't even think I would like, I started buying the others two at a time. One day I went to Barnes & Noble and they didn't have the next in series and I was BESIDE MYSELF!! I had to drive around and find it, like some sort of crazy woman...lol..
So glad you are enjoying

the very first bdb book i read was Rhage's. my moms friend had read almost the whole series and she rec. them to my mom who bought four of them..Rhage, Zsadist, Butch, and Phurys..i just picked Rhages up at her house one day and could not stop reading. i just about went crazy when i couldnt find the very first book anywhere! it was always sold out!! so i finally finally found it at the used book store. the newest book out is Rhev's.... love..but Ive had a 'thing' for Rhev since he first made an appearance. *sigh*
im sick i cant help it.

I think we hijacked Sookie's thread into a Black Dagger Brotherhood thread! Maybe the "boys" deserve a thread of their own. IDK The BDB books not only have strong sexy male characters, but strong women who love them. I think that makes me love them more.... Zsadist was my favorite by far, probably because he was such a tortured character.
It's def a sickness Sinergy, I have it too.

Iv seen abt 3 different photos of the guy thy cast 2 play Alcide, in the first one i thought eh, nuthing special, but i seen 2 other pics an i was like wow! his hair was styled different an its amazing what a lil hair gel can do...but, yea. I dont remeber how the book portrays him. Im very anxious 2 see whose gonna play Quinn...I do remeber his description, since im still reading that book that first introduces him. I agree with shadowy lady that Sookies charecter portral in the book is just too Goody,goody, but in the show much more likeable. Eric still has my flames a going,though i would say Quinn is my #2. Im going into DTss over season 3, cant wait. Oh, FYI, if your interested in other pics of the actor Alcide i googled true blood ssn 3 and it had several different articles on the new cast members, also the actress who will play Jasons gf from Hot Lick.

I've read all 10 books (even the short stories) and I love them all. My favorite book is Dead to the World. The storyline w/ Eric was soooo scrumptious. Needless to say I'd LOVE to take a bite out of him.
My second fave is tied between Definitely Dead & Dead and Gone... I can't wait til may for the new book...I HAVE to know what's going to happen.
