Definitely agree with a lot of the Anita comments, I mean in the beginning she was fun and all her insecurities made sense cause her powers were growing and she was young and not really used to the preternatural world, but seriously, girl has got to grow up and realize that doing things and then angsting over them and then continuing to do things where the only difference is being bitchy towards everyone else is really not the answer. Also, it's been awhile, but really, does almost everyone like worship her now? Ugh, I need books to reference, but her interactions with all the other characters were so much fun in the first few books and in the last few they've just deterioated into sex and wangst. Bah, maybe I'll do some re-reading over Spring Break.
Also, her religious hang ups bug the hell out of me. I'm a practicing Catholic and it's just ugh. Seriously, from the way she views the church she had to have had religious doctrine beaten into her or something, and then she just goes and disregards everything and then starts going in about how God still lights up her crosses for her so he can't have forsaken her yet and so of course everything she's doing is okay so lets keep on doing but oh no, gotta question and whine about every move and this is one long ass sentence that doesn't really make sense and is just me rambling about things that I vaguley remember.
Oh, and I have an issue with how sex orientated the books have gotten. And really, I've read better threesome/moresome sex in fics. I mean, I don't need a bad/odd/crazy sex scene every 20 pages. Really.
Plus there's the whole Nitasue thing going on lately (or maybe always, just really blatant lately) girl can defeat anything now I guess.
Honestly, I read the books for the other characters, and some of them have been warped by Anita in the last couple of books, sad. I think I liked her until the triumverate thing (or maybe a little after, can't remember anymore) and I am sad that I don't really enjoy reading her character anymore.
