Wow, crazy! I read the first couple Anita books 8 years ago because I was visiting a friend who loved them. I'm a big Buffy fan, so she thought I might like these. If I remember correctly I did enjoy the first two or three, but early on I really didn't care for the gore. And it didn't seem like there was much plot in any of them so I never read any others. This review makes me glad I didn't.
I also read a couple of the Merry books, which I liked a lot better than Anita, at least until her sex with everyone became detrimental to the plot. I'm not a prude; but I just remember thinking that it just got to be too much (and probably stuff that squicks me out like bondage, but I can't remember if that was actually there or not.) I don't know...I might try giving the Merry books a reread, but I'll pass on Anita Blake.
