So I am currently watching a live reading/questions thing with John Green and David Levithan about their novel Will Grayson, Will Grayson.

******Contains details from Sookie Stackhouse books and some spoiler/info I’ve found on season three.********* So I’ll admit, the first few Sookie Stackhouse novels by Charlaine Harris did not really catch my attention.
