I mean Jean-Claude "brought her" one more time, ugh.
Spike: I'm not a monster. Xander: Yes! You are a monster. Vampires are monsters! They make monster movies about them! Spike: Well, yeah. Got me there.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Badly-written horror porn
Well, that was the straw that broke the Anne Rice camelback for me. She wrote boring bondage porn.
I mean, try saying that out loud a few times. Every time you say it, it seems less possible.
Boring bondage porn.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
I now I've said it before, but the demo chapter from her next Gentry book is AWFUL.
Awful porn.
AWFUL.

The early Anita Blake books, when they were more about raising the dead and less about raising male genitals, were pretty decent. The recent stuff tends to make me feel like I should wash my hands after reading it.

I'm all about the paperback.
As far as LKH and Anne Rice are concerned, I'm all about the paperback bought at a used bookstore or thrift store. I don't want to give them my money.

Wrod, Ginger. Although I'm a member of the wants to find out what happened next camp, I think I already know what will happen to all LKH's characters: they'll service the ardeur and do a lot of killing. Le sigh. Too bad. I liked the "whipcrack adventure" early on.

If I only had a brain...
I liked the tension, the sense that Anita was one step away from becoming evil. Now? She's got no moral problem with anything. Just don't hurt her friends.

So, should I read the things, or what? The Hamilton books, that is?

I didn't say I'd stopped reading, although it may get to the point that I start feeling like poking my eyes out while reading. My library has gotten all the recent ones, so at least I can punish myself for free. I generally dislike anything like censorship, but I keep thinking the Gentry books in the library need a bright red "Weird Sex on Every Page" sticker.
