Notes:
(1) "Pam was a little shorter than I."
- Well, Sookie's 5'6", so... 5'5"?
(2) Sookie: "How old were you, Pam?"
Pam: "When I died? I was nineteen."
- Presumably she still looks nineteen. I guess it's good they aged everyone up in the show... otherwise it'd be "The Vampire Diaries."
- I've really got to recalibrate my mental image of book Pam. She'd be more like a blonde British version of Jessica from the show.

Notes:
(1) Barry: "My real name is Barry Horowitz. Now I just call myself Barry Bellboy."
- "Barry Horowitz"? Someone's a pro-wrestling fan… or else Ms. Harris googled famous people named Barry.
(2) "I'd been expecting a woman like the fangbangers who hang around at Fangtasia, but Carla Danvers was another kind of creature entirely."
- "Danvers"? Someone's a comic book fan… I wonder if she's related to Carol or Kara?

Notes:
(1) "Bob ignored his kibble in favor of watching Quinn fry bacon … I liked a man who could cook."
- Don't get too impressed, Sookie. It's bacon.
- Sookie's grasping at straws, if you ask me, to like Quinn for more than "his length."
(2) Claudine: "Take a hike, witch."
Amelia: "Pointy-eared bitch."
Claudine: "Mate killer."
Amelia: "He's not dead! ... He's just—different!"
- I do love myself some catty repartee.

Notes:
(1) Sookie Voldemorting Bill (aka he who must not be named) is such an overreaction and makes me not like her so much.
- Even if Bill's cheating and subterfuge wasn't against his will, it's still taking ex-girlfriend vindictiveness to an extreme.
(2) While I appreciate that sex scenes (so far) are less explicit and more euphemistic than usual, I hate Quinn and would rather gross sex described than gross Quinn.

Notes:
(1) If you've been enjoying my GIF updates for this series, I'm sorry to say I won't be doing them anymore. The fact is, I can't.
- I'd love to continue until the very end, but the last couple books have been a real stretch in terms of finding show clips that might in some way match what's going on in the book.
- I mean, I could conceivably go on like I have, but that'd just be posting GIFs for the sake of it.

Though Pam, Sophie-Anne, Russell Edgington and Godric are all teenagers (when they died). Bill died at 30 in the books but the actor's 40 in the show. All the vampires are generally aged up.
