Trying out [personal profile] calligrafiti's idea...

I hear that Laurell K. Hamilton's newest book isn't as good as it might be.

Not only is it not as good as the last books, this book sucks and the plot sucks and the writing sucks... It's more soft porn than exciting Antia Blake adventure. I disliked it. It made me realize she is losing her tough... I'm going to focus on the Merry Gentry series now... It at least isn't playing a puritan character who has to have lots of sex and hates it... Merry enjoys it all... I hate sex guilt trips in novels especially when they last 4 books!

See? 14 minutes from post to comment. It's like magic. (Of course, since we're talking LKH, the issue of what kind of magic raises it's head. Cyberpaganism?)

Yes, I'm a victim of punctuation Tourette's. My fingers randomly drop apostrophies, commas, and, in especially bad cases, semi-colons throughout my paragraphs.

Only suitible applications of good chocolate can help.

And nothing cures the accompanying rash.

Pish. Like that's news? The only question in my mind is if it's going to be as bad as I think it will be.

Well, that explains the way the door locked behind me when I walked in! ;)

While it's not as good as Obsidian Butterfly or Narcissus in Chains, it was still better than some of the mid-range ones...
