No, you’re not remembering correctly. In the books Gran’s husband is sterile, which is why she hooked up with the half-fairy to have Sookie’s dad and Aunt Linda. She felt guilty about it, but both she and her husband really wanted kids, so…
It’s never really said in the series. I’ve only read the first couple of books so no idea if it’s in there. Surely if he can turn into a fly (which, incidentally, was my biggest ‘holding on so hard to suspend my disbelief I feel my bones breaking’) or a dog then a person would be a cakewalk. While he does have to get naked when he shifts, it’s also never explained what happens to the extra 150 pounds or so when he turns into a dog.
I loved his mother’s “this idn’t gone get us very far” ‘appreciation’ of the money he gave her and was glad he told her “I don’t give a fuck”, though I’m guessing he hasn’t seen the last of them. And how horrifying is the notion of opening a door to see your ‘way past her sale date and it’s all been a hard ride’ mom naked on your porch?
In the books she’s supposed to be about Sookie’s age and pretty cute so it definitely looks like they are going in a different direction as far as age goes.
Yeah, but She’s pretty much an ordinary human wiccan type of witch, isn’t she? Not the other kind of witch. Or either other kind, actually, since the books have good, bad, and wiccan.
By the way, the single most perfect thing this season was early on when Sookie did her impression of Bill saying Sookie. If you don’t remember it, you couldn’t have seen it, because it was priceless.
