With the perspective shift came my single biggest pet peeve - when she starts referring to the character simply as "Scarpetta." It is sooooo pretentious.
I stopped reading after, I think, Blowfly? The whole thing just got too dumb. She made Marino so unattractive, I didn't buy the whole Jay Talley storyline, and the whole Benton thing was just too retarded to be believed.
I also hate how she sort of made Kay half-assedly pseudo-gay but then stopped short of actually going there.
THIS COMMENT CONTAINS SEMI-SPOILERS.
