3.5 stars moreso. 
 Just a quick mini review/thoughts on this one: 
 While I still really enjoyed this installment, I felt it was a bit "stale" compared to many of the previous ones. Maybe in part because there wasn't as much action, and this felt more like a filler for the rest of the story so that the reader can learn more about the politics of vamps and relationships as well as showing Sookie's character growth through everything else she's experienced so far. 
 Otherwise, enjoyed and can't wait to read more soon. :)
