Seriously?! Oh whee I can't wait to see what you think of Anita and her powerz.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

I liked the first couple of books. I mean they weren't great, but fun reads. But now they just seem out of control.

[canadianevil.livejournal.com]

See icon.

I will... probably laugh hysterically at your pain and then beat you around the head when you share it.

Mwahahaha.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

And I plan on sharing EVERY BIT with you.

Mwahahahaa

[canadianevil.livejournal.com]

I can hardly wait. /sarcasm

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

:D

[canadianevil.livejournal.com]

I am going to get you back someday. There wiilllllllll be blooooooood.

Or horrible mental trauma. You know, either or.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

I don't think I can have any more mental trauma than I've already gone through with these books. It looks like it will be blood.

[canadianevil.livejournal.com]

Well then you will have to come visit so I can... beat you, or something.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

And then we can go to that museum you were talking about!

[canadianevil.livejournal.com]

Yay! :D It is neat.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

^_^ It is I bet! And we'll have a good time even though I'll have been beaten bloody.

[canadianevil.livejournal.com]

Or even though I've STOLEN YOUR EYES. Mwahhaahahaaahahaha.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

NOOO NOT THE EYES!

You take those and I'll show you a Jane Austin/Lord of the Rings crossover.

[brightrosefox.livejournal.com]

I'm in line behind you.

Kip, I can't believe you bought that.
...I also cannot wait for you to destroy it.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

I didn't buy it. I'm checking it out from the library.

[brightrosefox.livejournal.com]

Oh! Oh, good. I must've missed the library part, sorry.
I wouldn't want my friends wasting money on LKH.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

*pats* It's all right. I wouldn't waste the money on it either.

[brightrosefox.livejournal.com]

Part of me still wonders if it's worth it to get through the rest of the Merry Gentry books, but I'm sure I'll talk myself out of it.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

I read the first one and it was okay. Though there was a lot of sex. And then it turned out that the point of the later books would be for her to have as much sex as possible so that she could conceive. It leaves me to wonder what Hamilton's sex life is like.

[brightrosefox.livejournal.com]

See, I can handle the Merry Gentry books because Hamilton just comes right out and admits that it's nothing but sex, that the character needs to conceive or die. But wow, it's taking forever and a day. Apparently it's very difficult for a Fae princess to get pregnant even with four dozen different men spooging in her every night.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

If she got pregnant then how would she have massive amounts of sex?

[brightrosefox.livejournal.com]

*opens mouth*
*thinks*
*closes mouth*

Well... uh, I hear sex during pregnancy can get kinky...

[brightrosefox.livejournal.com]

Oh, hey... I just read a bunch of spoiler reviews for "A Lick Of Frost," and it looks like the wait is over. Maybe I'll start reading again.

[dolfairy173.livejournal.com]

I can't do the Merry Gentry books. I like good smut, with Plot and everything. I tried to read The Black Dagger Brotherhood series but got bored after the 3rd one. I love the Kushiel books (see icon) and The Black Jewels Trilogy. I started reading the Blake books, and the first couple were good, so I read more... and then they got REEEEAAAAALLLLLYY bad, but I hate skipping books in a series so I pushed through it, and the latest one (The Requiem) was actually okay. It had PLOT and everything lol

[karaotter.livejournal.com]

Because I wasn't sure what exactly you were talking about (though I had an inkling) I googled it.

The only positive thing I found about it is that nobody dies. (Which might be a bad thing, now that I think about it.)

Good luck!

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

It's sure to be interesting!

This will be glorious

[oceans-heart.livejournal.com]

And I will be here to provide hot chocolate and comfort since i all ready went through my brain destruction with that book. Amusingly, DM was the book that finally convinced me to give up on AB.

Re: This will be glorious

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

And I'm sure I'll soon find out why. =D

[brightrosefox.livejournal.com]

Oh, hey, did you see this awesome snarky review?
http://dionnegalace.com/wordpress/2006/06/28/danse-macabre-by-laurell-k-hamilton/

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

I just read it and it was delightful. =D

[emily-goddess.livejournal.com]

Are we talking about the Hamilton novel? So many things have used that title that I get confused (Camille Saint-Saens wrote a beautiful piece of music by that name; I recommend it).

I bought one of her novels once, used. Then I realized what I'd done and gave it away without reading it. So glad I have you to endure these horrible books so I don't have to!

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

Yes. The Hamilton novel. I have a couple of her earlier novels. They weren't bad, but after what I heard happened, I dropped t hem.

[kellicat.livejournal.com]

I can't wait to see your sporkings of it, but I fear for your sanity.
Here, have some sanity cookies. I just baked them fresh on the internet.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

Yay! Cookies!

[smurasaki.livejournal.com]

Yay? Eeek? Yaek?

Ah, well, the end result will be entertaining for us pigeons.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

Oh yes, my misery is all for your sake.

[x-trickster-x.livejournal.com]

You poor, poor soul. My heart goes out to the mangled remains of your brain in advance.

[kippurbird.livejournal.com]

Brain or sanity.

Oh wait, I was never sane.
