    Death threats, suicide threats and more prosaic threats to cancel book orders have followed the publication of Charlaine Harris's final novel about the telepathic waitress Sookie Stackhouse this week, after the American novelist gave her bestselling series a romantic conclusion that not everyone was happy with.
    Running for 13 years, the series – on which the television show True Blood is based – is set in a world where vampires and other supernatural creatures live alongside humans. The 13th and final novel, Dead Ever After, concludes Sookie's romantic adventures and sees her making a choice between three potential suitors: the vampires Bill and Eric, and the shapeshifter Sam.
    An early copy was leaked online by a fan in Germany last week, prompting an outpouring of bile on Amazon, Goodreads and Harris's Facebook page, with thousands of comments posted by fans furious about the choice Sookie made.

    The book is truly awful! Don't think death threats are called for but it was really very very disappointing!

    I was a bit disappointed with the book, it sorta seemed like it was a bit rushed and all the loose ends were being tied up quickly because she'd decided that it was going to be the last one. Tbh I think she'd have been better off either making the book a bit longer and giving some of the characters a better farewell, or expanding it over two books.

    Apparently there's an epilogue type book coming out in October so hopefully that'll let us see what becomes of the main characters.
