We are here with Challenge #4:

From Season 1, Episode 1. Sookie after seeing Bill for the first time: "I have been waiting for this moment since they came out of the coffin two years ago."

Hot guys. Actually the humor is phenomenal in the show. The relationships are rich and engaging. It’s easy to invest into this show. Jason Stackhouse and Eric Northman don’t hurt either!

I’d fight for Vamp rights of course!

Lafayette

I’m not looking!!! LOL

9.  To read or not read the Sookie Stackhouse novels?

I would totally fight for the Vamps!

I would probably mostly mainstream, but get a little crazy once in a while and treat myself to the real deal.

 I've read em, love em, watched the series...love it too although it's a tad different from the books.

10. What can you "bring" to the True Blood Challenge?
Lots of fun, humor, excitement in a really geeky-way because I'm so hooked on the whole thing!  I would even be willing to share some of my Bill photos ;)
