I love the series True Blood and decided to read the book from which it came, Dead Until Dark by Charlaine Harris. If you like vampires, Dead Until Dark (book 1 of the Sookie Stackhouse mystery series) is fun, but non well-written. Not as bad as Twilight, not as good as anything by Anne Rice. I'd say that in this case--it's better to see the movie than read the book. If you're a fan of the show, maybe read this book just to compare it. I probably won't read any more in the Sookie Stackhouse series unless I get laid up sick in bed for several weeks and need instant gratification through the Kindle.
