I enjoyed Twilight and am considering the Sookie books, are they very gory? as i prefer them not to be, any other recommendations? are they long reads? always preferable to me. Thanks everyone.

I loved the Twilight series, and tried the Sookie Stackhouse Книги to keep busy between Twilight movies. I Любовь them! Sookie is a wonderful character, and the combination of fantasy, mystery, romance, and thriller elements make these Книги fun to read. I would say that if Twilight is PG-13, the Sookie Книги are definitely R, for mature elements (more sex, drugs, and violence than Twilight) and еще graphic descriptions of those elements. That's not to say the Книги are all sex and vice, but they're definitely not for all Twilight fans. Certainly not for the younger audience. Just my opinion (30-something Twilight Фан and mother of 3).

The Книги are alot of fun. They have some graphic "gory" moments but they are well done and not too explicit since they are being told by Sookie and she's usually the one experiencing them. There is some graphic sex throughout the series (and the rape in book3) but not as much as the tv version.
If I were to give the Книги movie ratings they would be:

violence- PG13/R
gore- PG13
language- PG13
sex- R
adult themes- R

It's not gory at all. There's еще sexual content though. The Книги will remind Ты a lot of twilight but they came out about 6 years earlier

The Книги are not too glory however there is a lot еще adult scenes and content than Twilight. I loved the Twilight series but the Sookie Stackhouse Книги blew them out of the water. I think the Книги were the perfect length and once Ты read the first one it becomes a journey until Ты are finished. I really hope Ты read them everyone I know that has read them loved it!
