Does anyone here plan on giving The Harlequin a chance? I've read a few good reviews and the teaser was so much better than anything she's put out in a long, long time. It makes me wonder if she might possibly redeem herself with this one?

Oh crap.

If there's no sex for at least 20 chapters...

Then that means they're going to be talking for at least 20 chapters! Talking, analyzing, whining, moaning, complaining, bitching, angsting...call it what you want, but there's gonna be twenty chapters of it!

Ahhhhhhhh! Run away! Run away!

(Everyone cross your fingers and hope I'm wrong.)

It gets better. Basically what the Harlequin does is make people say things that they'd normally keep bottled up inside. So it is vitriolic talking, analyzing, whining, moaning etc.

Richard gets at least one good dig in though.

...they keep things bottled up!?

Where? How? When? WTF?

I've never noticed Anita keeping things bottled up. If anything, I really wish she'd put a lid on it.
