Who still reads the books?

I'm just curious how many people still read the books, and how many people wait until paperback to buy them.  I joined the community because her AB books since and including Cerulean Sins have gone way down hill.  Since I'm a bit fond of erotica, I liked the MG series, but the book before last didn't even cover a day in time, and I felt very cheated.  I was hoping for improvement, and while I think she has done character development with Nathaniel (despite the apron and pearls) that's been about it.  I'm not going to buy any of her books until paperback and then I'm only reading them to poke fun at her writing and hope that she actually does get better.  I hate to see a writer with her potential fall prey to their ego.  I mean Jim Butcher has an extremely long series with Harry Dresden and his character is still developing and the plots are still fresh. 

Also, what's her deal with lesbian/bisexual scenes? 

And how many people think it is just plain cruel what she is doing to Jean Claude and Asher?
