I just picked up "You Suck" from the library, and it will be the first Moore book I have read. So obviously I never read "Bloodsucking Friends". Do you think this is a problem? Will it make sense without having read the first one? I hope so cause I'm looking forward to starting it tonight, I'm just looking for some feedback before hand. Thanks!

It'll make sense, I think, but you'll enjoy it much more if you've read Bloodsucking Fiends first. (Also, if you've read A Dirty Job, because it kind of ties into that, too.)
Moore has recurring characters so the best thing to do is start with the first, though I found out too late for that. Just read Bloodsucking first. F.
I really try my hardest to read books in order, but with Moore, it seems like that would be difficult unless you just read in the order he releases them. I noticed in Dirty Job, the redhead who walks into the shop would be the main character in Bloodsucking Fiends, which i went out and bought (and will be reading next), then i will have to go to You Suck.... If I read out of sequence, I get all messed up. But im like that with just about anything i read.
That's exactly what I did. Dirty Job was my first, then I got Bloodsucking Fiends and You Suck, and after that, I started at the beginning and went from there.
I also started with A Dirty Job, but i then read Lamb and You suck i finished like last month. I dont think it matters though it does tie into them both and i now want to read Blood sucking fiends.
