I'd appreciate it tons if Anita'd just grow some and finally just shoot his ass. Several times, just for closure. Also, I'm tired of seeing all the new big kitties turn into whiny (please don't leave me, please can't I stay, I'll be your luuuurve slave forever!!!) bitches as soon as they get a good whiff of the Ardeur. I mean, come on, Tons of other "people" have been introduced to the Ardeur and they aren't exactly pussy whipped. I think the new guy can just take a flying leap and bring me back Haven. I liked him, he has attitude. Other than all that, I pretty much liked it, I just hope the next one has more of the old characters (Jean-Claude...Nathaniel...Micah, heh hem) in it and more kickin' ass and shooting her Browning. That's all. I wish they hadn’t have brought Richard back at all. I’d appreciate it tons if Anita’d just grow some and finally just shoot his ass. Several times, just for closure.

Nothing much happened, but I still liked it because: I like Jason, I like Anita when she's with Jason, and I like "long conversations". Otherwise, bleh; doesn't matter - I'm still gonna read it no matter what. We need an Anita Blake equivalent of methadone. I read it last weekend and I didn’t have to pay for it – yay!

Jason alone a couple of times. And (<i>are you sitting down?</i>) the metaphysical boinkin' happens <b>OFF-STAGE</b> and we don't read about it as it's happening. I swear this on my LKH Fangirl Order of the Penguin Medal! I'll leave the metaphysical "Who" as a surprise. hee. But I will say that Jason wakes up with a <i>Something About Mary</i> hairdo... and it's not his... hair gel. Dudes, she does Nathanial and Jason once. Jason alone a couple of times.

That's a conservative guess. QB, are you saying... it's NOT worth my time? :D Katiebabs, I’m betting FIVE, at most. That’s a conservative guess.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, Bam, but... um... you're going to have trouble finding much to say about this book. Or maybe I should say that you won't be able to give us one of the Bamtastic honkin' long snarkapaloozas that you're infamous for. There's just not enough material there to work with. Of course, I guess you could expound on it's LACK of snarkbait, right? Jason and Anita have one long conversation with an occasion boink up to page 196. Some random metaphysical shit happens pages 197-309, Anita gets to shoot a gun pages 309-336, the wrap up pages 337-340. And that's about it. And yes, an LKH fangirl DID just say that.

BAM you are a better woman! Katiebabs, you are most likely correct, I just cannot help myself!

Nevertheless, since I still wanted to read it and no library is going to have it before weeks (if they do), I read it at the bookstore. Half yesterday and half this morning. I'm not saying anything but ... Christ, LKH DOES have an editor, doesn't she? I finally found my inner strenght a few weeks ago after reading PW’s review of this book and cancelled my pre-order.
