Treating myself to a re-read of your wonderful stories. Back when you posted this, I had no idea how to do reviews, so didn't comment then. I understand there is a lot of Bill hate in our group, and certainly I am Eric and Sookie all the way. But you have written a thoughtful and ultimately kind look at Bill. He made so many mistakes in his relationship with Sookie and I never doubted that he loved her despite some of the dreadful things that happened (that trunk comes to mind first). At last he shows wisdom and understands he needs to let go; she is happy and he should move on. So well done..

Perfect chapter. Thank you.

Good to see a bill pov that isn’t so down on himself
Nice work!

Bill is definitely the best version of himself in this one. His taking personal responsibility and gracefully bowing out is nice to see for once! Loved the subtle intimacy of Eric's finger hooked through her belt loop. This is such a great series of stories!

Beautiful encounter with Bill. Now he can find peace.

bout time he figured it out that he needed to let her go, he had lost a long time ago and now was proof. KY

I like to think of Bill like this. Sookie is lucky to be loved and cherished by so many. And this also makes me want to go to Budapest ;)

Poor Bill. He'll always love her. He'll never have her. But he'll never fully let her go.

I can't remember the last time i read a Bill that grew up and let go. Bravo!

One of the best stories I've ever read. Your writing style is excellent

Thank you so much for writing from Bill's perspective. He is so often maligned that it makes me hurt for him. I really think his character is the most complex in either True Blood or the SVM novels and that it deserves more contemplation. It is easy to hate him, but much more difficult to understand him.

I wonder is it wrong for me to feel sorry for Bill?

darn, I am not a Bill fan but this is sooo depressing... Sookie becoming a Vampire feels like the end of all we know, but is it really so? Doesn't it just start for her?

He was never going to tell her about the queen's orders... and THAT is why I have no love for Bill. He considers Eric the selfish one, when HE in fact has always been selfish when it came to Sookie... I'm just glad he's finally realized his mistakes towards her and has finally let her go...

It's amazing. You've made me like Bill again and I did not think that was possible.

Also, I've been unable to stop reading since I stumbled across your stories. Thank you for them. I've laughed, cried and loved a little more with each one.
