Dear Author has reviewed Key To Conspiracy by Talia Gryphon. The cover has a quote from LKH, who is probably one of the few people who actually likes the book.
Talia Gryphon is a friend of Darla's and minion of LKH. LKH is her mentor.
Maybe the troos will like it, but it seems very few others do.

I ended up ordering this used from Amazon. (Like hell would buy it new and encourage more publication of Gryphon's excrement on paper. The guilt would kill me.) I have a big bottle whiskey ready. just waiting for it arrive. Then I will laugh and laugh and laugh and probably weep too since DA's review indicated that the sequel is every bit as bottom-of-the-barrel quality as the original.

Please snark this someplace. I'm not sure I have the stomach to read it myself.

I second that.

I mean, hello! First off, the name alone sounds like she stole it from Mercedes Lackey! :-p That alone is sporkworthy. :-p

A flog thou hast requested so a flog thou shalt have!

I'm going to take this book and make it my bitch. It all depends on when it comes in the mail because it's going to the top of the TBR pile.

wheee! :) I look forward to the flogging. ;)

What's the whiskey for? To sterilize your eyes?

:)

Because I don't have the fortitude to make it through 300+ pages completely sober. Liquor kills the pain.

You might want to go to something stronger, then. Say, perhaps, black tar heroin.

...I think I may need to read that just to laugh at it.
Or cry.
One of the two.

I heard she was bad, but DAMN!

...And the dudes that were liquefying her panties... one dresses in a way that makes Liberace seem positively masculine and the other is a horse's ass full of that condescending misogyny only really deluded romance novel readers consider a true measure of manliness.

What I thought was full of shi-I mean "win" was the way Gillian's vagina is always pumping, clenching, squeezing, and grasping whenever one of those guys walk into the room. Like its got kung-fu grip or something...just like those pharmacy blood pressure cuffs. And it emits a funk that can smelled across the room. And the dudes all find it sexy. Hooray for feminine hygiene!

Ohh, it hurts to choke on a vinegar chip! Yeah, -that- sounds ripe for flogging, indeed! *looks forward to it, when she's not eating that is*

HAhahahaha!!!! *rofl* What's sad is I know exactly what you mean, from years of broke-teenager desperation for reading material driving me to read my mother's cast off romance novels. There were dents in the wall of my ex-bedroom from some of the book being hurled against them.

I could only read about 60 pages of her first one. I just don't think I could take another one.

Dear Author so rarely gives F reviews. That's the really fun part. Mrs. giggles gave the t one a very low grade and she rarely gives any grade below 50. She's even given Carol Lynne high grades for the sheer wtfness of her books. To get such low grades, it has to be really, really, really bad.

Ah, Thalia somethingorother. I got her 1st book for free (courtesy of trading site, Bookmooch), so that I could have a good laugh. I am planning to review it on my...erm... review blog, and I hope that it will be a funny review, even with my limited english vocabulary.

It's heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeere! It came in yesterday's mail. My right eye is swollen shut, but I'm still reading it with just my left, albeit very slowly.
