Hi peoples!

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?

If this is how you feel why on earth are you in the lashouts community?

And I think that "if ya don't like them, don't read them" just shows that you really don't understand.

Perhaps you should have read the FAQ:
Thus, a community for people who want to gripe and debate about LKH's works without being insulted or told to "stop reading the books if you hate them so much".

Ah, but my point is, I do like them. Just . . . well, maybe not for the same reasons as they were intended.

And besides, how will I know whether or not I'm going to like them without reading them?
