Three dollars and some change

I'll start by saying that I don't have so much of a problem with the sex in the books. It's probably because the first LKH book I read was NIC, so I sort of came into the fandom ass-backwards. I had no idea just how many books there were and when I got them, I got them as the local bookstore had them in stock, so my reading of the series was a bit disjointed. I have since read the whole series in order once or twice and am actually in the process of doing so again, and I still like the later books first.

Maybe I'm like a baby duck and I'm just following what I know, but I like the relationships that Anita has developed in the later books, and I "feel" the lack of them in the earlier books, so they're not as much fun for me to read. I can understand others' dislike of the Anita in the later books for her lack of confidence, but I do think that makes her a little more real. I'm a fan of happy endings and the like so when she is with pard and the pack and the vamps and all the friends that she has made over the years through being a ball-busting bitch, I don't have a problem with it. I skim over the sex parts cuz there's only some many ways Part A can fit into Slot B.

I'm intrigued by the spoiler for Danse Macabre, particularly the much-expanded one on her site that takes the scene a bit further. I want to know what what's going on with Dolph and I keep wondering if Harry is going to bring anyone with him when he comes back for Christmas (oops wrong story), but I'm still interested and I don't see that ending any time soon.
