The opposite of up

Allow me to clarify my rabidness about the Anita Blake books:

They're books. I tend to focus on the positive and the things I like in them, as I dislike to the extreme the crap that comes off a lot of the AB forums on the Internet, but that doesn't mean I'm blind to the books faults. These days, all that I read goes through the "Anita Blake fanfic" filter, so it's likely I'm looking at the books in a different way than you lot.

So here it is: As opposed to the normal sunshine and cheer that goes around here, take the opportunity to nitpick, to say what you don't like about the Anita Blake books/characters/cover art etc. Thing is, if you say you don't like something, you need to say why.

Also, feel free to comment anonymously.

ETA PS: There are now spoilers for Micah and the Danse Macabre teaser in this thread. FYI KTHNX.

But the sex with guys that she doesn't even
Are you talking about Requiem? All the other guys I can think of are Jason and Asher and Damian.

But I do get your point. LIke I said in my above post, I view the books through the fanfic-writer filter -- I see what fits my plot. And in my plots, I see that Anita's not dealing with this, and she really needs to. Of course, I have her doing just that. Ahem.

oh, the MoaD storyline. I hope LKH is setting that one up for later, because I *really* want to see that villan again.

Yeah, Requiem, Jason, Asher, and Damien. It seems like she's had a real problem with becoming physical with them-Requiem because she didn't really know him that well, Jason because she considered him as just a friend, Asher same as Jason, and Damien felt too much (to her) like an abuse of power.
