First book of the year!

Sheila at Book Journey is hosting a post for readers first read of the new year.  I decided to read Dead in the Family by Charlaine Harris.  Every summer I read two to four of the books in this series while at the beach.  Then I come home and put the series down again for one reason or another.  I'd like to finish the series and see how Sookie resolves things in her life.  I actually already finished this book and will probably post a review tomorrow.  I started the next book as well.  With the book I just started, Dead Reckoning, I have three books left to reach the end of the full length novels.  I still wish the titles somehow included the numbers.  It is easy to get confused as to whether I've read the books yet and what order they go in especially as they have been rereleased with new covers.
