They stay closer to the books than most adaptations. Most of the changes are because the books are all from Sookie's point of view. I would have liked if they kept a little closer with the end of the second book last season but I have no complaints with what they did.

@Bladehad: Maybe we'll get to see her naked, soon. I don't have HBO, but I saw the first season on DVD and am looking forward to the second season on DVD. Even without the hot naked chicks, I'd still love the show. lol
