Deadlocked by Charlaine Harris

I love Sookie Stackhouse! Aside from the fact that everyone in her life is supernatural or two-natured as she says, she's a lot like me! This was book 12 and readers are preparing for the end. Book 13 is supposed to be the last in this series. You can tell the author is getting ready to end it. Sookie is still "married" to Eric, the big, Viking vampire. (I do love Eric!) They are failing to communicate and facing problems on all fronts. Of course Bill, Pam, Sam, and others are involved throughout the story. It all boils down to Sookie having a faery object that gives the possessor a wish. Eric wants her to use it for one thing, but she doesn't think she should have to use it for that. She ends up using it for the one thing she must use it for. Obviously, the book ends without a real end since we all know the next book will give us the closure we are hoping for!
