Anita Blake Revisited

6.) The Laughing Corpse (Anita Blake), by Laurell K. Hamilton, 293 pages
Review: I'm continuing to like this series a lot. Total fantasy, being that there are all sorts of were-creatures, vampires, ghouls, and the like, but still a rollicking good read.

When I went to the used bookstore to get this book, I had the following conversation with the middle-aged lady behind the counter:

The woman at the used book store told me "It was a really good series, up until #7."

"Why? What happened then?" I asked.

"They got really... pornographic," she delicately whispered, her voice dropping on the last word.

"Really!?!" I said, excitedly. Somehow, I don't think that's the reaction she expected.

"All the way up until the last one, when she got back on track," she said, primly.

****
This same sentiment (except not put so prudishly) was given by severina2001 and tootiredtosleep. I can't wait to get to book #7, and see what all the fuss is about!

This may sound like I'm full of myself, but...

For all those who may have put birthday wishes for me in their journals, THANK YOU!!! I didn't even get on the computer yesterday, and my F-List is so out of control (I'm not a deleter), that I just spent 20 minutes trying to get back to yesterday, only to end up at 4 pm today! I don't know how to jump back in the Flist, so I just wanted to say...



Thanks for the Thoughts and Birthday Wishes!!!!

Of course, I may be wrong, and this may seem like a plea for "Happy Birthdays" (it's not), and now I'm feeling so self conscious, like it sounds like I protest too much, so I may delete this... but I really do want to thank anyone out there who did.
