1 star for Hamilton's story, 2 for Galenorn's, 4 for Liu's & Shinn's, averaging out to 3 stars. :)Hamilton's "Can He Bake a Cherry Pie?" - There was a good premise here, and an interesting setup, unfortunately it fell flat once the action started. No clear reason why the heroine succeeded in her ...

Amazing as always and so hott!!!!Jason has a problem and he goes to Anita & Nathaniel for help. Jason's girlfriend is coming down and he needs their help so she can unders...
Anita Blake is, or wants to be, deeply human. And as such, she is obsessively concerned with the protection of humans from the things that go bump in the night. To protect others, she is willing to put her very life on the line, but not her very soul, not unless that is the only way to protect ot...
"Why do I put up with you? You insult me at every turn."Well, LKH broke the formula with this book. Anita actually TAKES a client and leaves St. Louis to head to Branson, Missouri, where she is being paid to raise an entire graveyard to see who owns the property (because, of course, Anita is the...
"We're wasting time with all this personal sh!t.”WARNING: Sorry about the gif spam. I make an effort to keep it to a minimum in my reviews, but this one needed some gifs or I would go mad.PLOT:Oh, you expected a plot summary of this book?Okay, I'll try to be serious now.Larry is marrying that ho...
I am really enjoying my rereading of this series. Going back to the beginning of the series has reminded me why I continue to read along even though it has morphed into another beast entirely. These early books were so great because the men and the sex weren’t the focus of the entire freaking p...
Okay, so some of the girls asked that I do a review of the Anita Blake series because I mentioned some things that intrigued them.It's not a finished series and usually I would reserve judgment on a series until it comes to its conclusion just in case the author was going somewhere I wasn't expec...
ไม่ได้ถึงกับเป็นการรีวิวเท่าไหรนะคะ เป็นการพร่ามถึงความคิดของเราในขณะที่อ่านเรื่องนี้มากกว่า (เราเอาสิ่งที่ตัวเองเขียนเกี่ยวกับเรื่องนี้ไว้นานแล้วที่บลอกเดิมมาลงใน GR น่ะค่ะ)ไม่ใช่หนังสือแนวโรแมนซ์ แม้ว่าประเด็นที่แฟนหนังสือชุดนี้พูดกันมาตลอดก็คือ ใครกันแน่ที่จะเป็นพระเอกของเมอรี่ เป็นหนังสือชุดแ...
SO CALLED SPOILER WARNING! TW: RAPEUPDATEIm on the third chapter, and already these things have occured:- "metaphysical" x 3- "Who, me?" x 2 (well, the other is a bit of a strech... :-))- "hard" and "tight" x who knows? (not in the sense you're thinking of though, thank goodness)- overly describi...
First read this May 8, 2010 and again May 3, 2011.Fourth in the Meredith Gentry erotic horror/urban fantasy series revolving around an Unseelie faerie princess who is part-human, part-brownie, and half fae. And the contested heir to the throne.My TakeIt's a matter of choice and interpretation: th...
Anita gets a call early one morning (does this woman ever get calls during normal business hours?) - it's Larry. His pregnant wife, Tammy, is going into premature labor, and he can't fly out to Philadelphia to raise a zombie for a case. Anita agrees to go, and to restrain the pesky ardeur, she ...
This book actually pissed me off in an all around way. While I was interested in the book, I didn't expect what came out of it. I'm not the type to read reviews before I read a book, because I want to have an honest judgement for myself. So, the back of the book spiked my interest with, " In a wo...
I feel bound to give some explanation as to why I started reading ‘War and Peace’ and then suddenly switched to trashy magical sexcapades. To cut a long story short, I am temporarily of no fixed abode because the flat I intended to move into has dangerous wiring. Whilst packing for two weeks of s...
Sabin and his human servant, Dominic, approach Anita with a problem. Sabin tried to go vegetarian for the love of his life, but now he's rotting. Can Anita help?Sure, no problem! Only...Anita promptly drops that thread, and it's only a sheer coincidence (though a rather clever one, I'll admit)...

(Original review, Dec 2006 http://hill-kleerup.org/blog/2006/12/... )Overall: 3/5Story: 2/5Re-Readability: 4/5Characters: 2/5The tenth installment in the Anita Blake novels is where the series really, truly, goes off the rails. This is as far as I’ve gotten, both in my original reading and in thi...

Review posted here: http://offbeatvagabond.blogspot.com/2010/10/laurell-k-hamilton-obsidian-butterfly.html Let me start off by saying, I am a huge Anita Blake fan. There wouldn't be True Blood if not for Anita. Hell, as much as it pains me to say this, there wouldn't be Twilight if. It for An...
Those Who Seek Forgiveness is set in the Anitaverse, right before Guilty Pleasures. Back to the old pre-porn Anita, a story about a zombie raising where not everything that the client tells Anita is the truth, which has repercussions.A Lust of Cupids. A very short story about two people trying ha...
Welcome to the Death of a SeriesOnce upon a time there was a girl. She liked to read. A lot. She especially liked to read about books with paranormal alternate realities in them because the real world had lost its magic to things like “Reality” TV, male-dominated debates about women’s reproductiv...
