"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

did anyone else notice that Sookie was reading a book by Charlaine Harris when she was waiting for Eric? I was kind of amused by that.

Art Crawl!!!

In the book - panther thing:

Jason was captured and tortured for a very long time by a were-panther who hated him because he thought that Jason took Crystal from him. There was no plant to make him a panther to have little panther babies because that's not the way the shifting stuff works in book-verse What Jason becomes is a weird partial panther thing not an actual panther. He did get kidnapped in the book where Eric winds up as Sookie's amnesiac guest.

Compassionately intolerant

I saw the Harris book Sookie was reading and kept going back to try and see the cover. I don't think it was a Sookie!book...I hate to say it but, I recognize all those covers.

It was a cute moment. Made me think of the old 'subliminal advertising' stuff from the 70s.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

That interview is about the latest book, so way spoilery for the series, BTW.

I did not read the interview, so thank you for that, ita.

You might want to post it in Literary too, now that I think about it.

In season 1, Grams is reading a Charlaine Harris book at the kitchen table. I only noticed it on my latest rewatch.
