Welcome to the 2013 Sookie Stackhouse Reading Challenge hosted by Darlene's Book Nook!

Although I hosted this challenge for 2012, I did not make any headway in this series. So, I'm going to host it again for 2013!

The books in the Sookie Stackhouse (aka Southern Vampires) series by Charlaine Harris are:

  1. Dead Until Dark (Book #1)
  2. Living Dead in Dallas (Book #2)
  3. Club Dead (Book #3)
  4. Dead to the World (Book #4)
  5. Dead as a Doornail (Book #5)
  6. Definitely Dead (Book #6)
  7. All Together Dead (Book #7)
  8. From Dead to Worse (Book #8)
  9. Dead and Gone (Book #9)
  10. Dead in the Family (Book #10)
  11. Dead Reckoning (Book #11)
  12. Deadlocked (Book #12) 
  13. Dead Ever After (Book #13) - expected publication in 2013

Please read below for the challenge guidelines.

2013 Sookie Stackhouse Reading Challenge

1. The challenge will run from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2013. Books must be read during this time-frame to count.

2. You can join the challenge at any time! All books read in 2013 count for the challenge, regardless of when you sign up.

3. This challenge can cross-over to your other reading challenges.

4. You do not need a blog to participate! If you are not a blogger, you can post your reviews at Goodreads, Shelfari, or LibraryThing and link them up here.

5. All formats of books are acceptable: Bound copies, e-books, and audiobooks (as long as they are unabridged).


6. There are four levels for the challenge:

8. There will be a separate linky for your reviews, which will be posted on THIS page.

9. There will be a linky for your wrap-up post at the end of the year.

  1. This is such a great idea! I have the first 6 books but I haven't read them yet so what a great way to motivate me! I should have my post up in a few days.

    Thanks! New follower. :)

  2. This is such a great challenge! I think I read up to book 9 (maybe book 10) so it'll be awesome to go back through and read the whole series :)

  6. Hi, I am in the middle of reading this series. I chose Level 3, in case I cannot get the book at my library when it's released. but if they do get it, I will finish the series. Is that all right?
