Yes, I'm a newbie, here via Fandom Wank. But I'm so thrilled to find a place that feels the way I do about the increasing silliness of Laurell K. Hamilton's books.
I just finished reading A Stroke of Midnight, the most recent Merry Gentry book, which I borrowed from the library because there's no way I'm paying money for that crap.
So here's my question: is there anybody here who reads her work the way I've taken to reading it--not in the hopes that it will magically get better, but for the sheer entertainment value in how ridiculous it's going to get? The way one giggles over watching, say, an Ed Wood movie? Or is it just me?

I'm working my way back through the ABVH series and snarkily recapping them all, because I have no interest in re-reading ID to know what's going on in the next book. It's easier for me to re-read a few posts than to re-read an entire series.
