What is the Sookie Stackhouse Companion? I am in the middle of the series. Was wondering if this contains new stories or if it is more like an encyclopedia of Sookie.
It's mostly an encyclopedia--recipes, recaps of each book in the series, etc.There is one novella that I hadn't seen before. It fits in between the 11th and 12th books.

Task Completed5.8 – What Are You?: Melissa & Doug Toys - Cupcake toy - When in Doubt, Add Butter by Beth Harbison
20/310
5/40
I really enjoyed this book - it took my mind off of everything else that is going on in our area right now...
I haven't been reading very much this week - a lot of our friends have been without power, so we have been hosting them at our house during the day. I haven't had much down time, let alone time to read...
I just hope that everything returns to normal soon.
For "*5.10 – Mirror, Mirror On the Wall: Read a book with a mirror on it (if this is too hard to get, it can be something you can see your reflection in, like water)" could I use the bubble on the cover of Crossed by Allie Condie? Or should I stick to water or a mirrior?
