Welcome to Gaia! ::

*Chuckles* I'm really glad I finally got to read it too, Narniakat.

As a gist run down of my opinion;
I'm pleased with what she's done with Nathaniel. Richard is making a little more sense and is a tad more likeable. I think Zerbrowski has hit my second favourite character of the series.
One thing I didn't really much like... It's not the sex itself, it's that she has to go in detail EVERY SINGLE TIME! I'm sure we all understand the basics of sex, this goes there and we're all happy people. But in one paragraph, and this made me laugh, she said 'breast' about 15 times, I lost count after five. That was Anita and Jean Claude where JC made the point of wanting to be on top before they went into his office.
Maybe it's just me... But we all know that Anita has the ardeur, and we all have our little opinions on this, but we don't need the details of every sexual encounter she has to feed it. It does get a little much.

I made this comment in another forum when I was halfway through it... "It's a magic book! I'm halfway through and the plot has just disappeared!"
It took her too long to get back to the serial killers and then, when the book ended, you were just left thinking... "...okay?"

That was the same thing I was thinking when I was reading through it. I notice this book seems to be so much bigger than some of the others I've read but there's so much less story. The sex was painfully drawn out (so much sex in so little time) and then when it came back to the story it just flew bye. I thought something was going to happen with the couple from earlier on and more things with Primo but was puzzled as to how since there was only 100 remaining pages.

Also glad to hear you finally got your hands on the book.

I am really interested to see if the big bad Vittorio is going to show up immediately in the next book, or if she is going to wait a while and make it a surprise when he shows back up.

I too would of course love to see way more violence & police work in the books again, but I wanted to share with you guys some of my favorite things from the sex parts in ID.

I really like the fact that Anita has moved solidly into 3somes. That is just a personal fav of mine. I love that she has accepted having sex with the furry. I loved loved loved the scene in her office with Nathaniel when he bit the back of her neck. That was just really really hot.

Me too. I don't know what possessed her to use that name when Anne Rice had a whole book about Vittorio.

Yea, the name use is kind of weird. Maybe since Vittorio gets no other action in the Chronicles and is less popular than the other characters she figured the association wouldn't be made *shrug* I am completely clueless. Maybe someone should email her xd

I just read Fenris' first post and noticed the thing he stated about the word "breast". I also loved the fact that she kept saying "I want this in me." or begging to be ********, that just left me questioning. I mean LKH will go into every graphic detail about the sex but she won't let Anita say anything more than "I want this in me."? So odd.

Alright, I finished ID about a week or two ago. Let me give my opinion on some stuff here.

I still don't like Richard. I used to hate him and was annoyed every time he came in, but now, I just don't like him. What an improvement! HA. I like the part where Richard is acting and saying things that are so much like Anita and Jean-Claude said he couldn't handle 2 Anita's. lol, that was great!
I wanted more a** kicking in this book and not as much sex like ya'll said already. I don't mind the sex really, but come on....a book with over 600 pages, but not much action until the very end where you don't even get the big bad guy??? I'm more an action throb than sex...but hey...I saw more of Jean-Claude!!
lol. I do have to say, I think this book was one of the, if not, the funniest one of them all. I was laughing my a** off throughout the whole thing. (I'd point out 2 chapters that I thought were funny, but my friend has my book and I forgot which they were).
I was laughing about the end when they threw a Clean The Basement Party. I was actually shocked that Asher came and helped, but my, I laughed hard when Richard didn't stay b/c Anita 'opened a vein' for Asher!
I was sad though that I didn't get to see Zane! Zane is one of my favorites!! While I was reading it, I was like, The Mother of Darkness is gonna be in here somewhere! Then she wasn't even mentioned (or was she at least once?!)! I felt like LKH led us to believe that the council or Belle Morte would visit or that MOD (mother of vamps.) would fully awaken, but that never happened! crying
I wanted to see Asher! I was glad that JC and Anita are dating him, but come! Give the guy a cameo at least other than JC mentioning him sleeping in the other room.
Man...I liked the book, but it could've been better if she took out some sex and put some of the old characters back.
I like Byron and Requeim though! Hotties! 3 hot vamps with different shades of blue eyes and they all live in the same city, if not, same building! *melts* I'm a total sucker for blue eyes. TRUE!!
I thought Primo was going to be the big bad vampire in the end before finding out about Vittorio. I didn't like Primo...I actually felt bad for him in a way. Ya know? He just didn't want the girls hanging all over him, but he was forced to...poor guy.
Malcolm pissed me off! I thought he was cool (I was misled!), but he pissed me off when he banished the blood oaths! Stupid b*****d. But I was laughing when JC was mentally talking to Anita when she was actually talking to Zebrowski. She was saying how they'd make Malcolm make the blood oaths come back into play or JC would do it. But he was against it. LOL, I laughing hard, especially when Z. saw Anita's behind while climbing the ladder and said she had a nice a**, then JC said 'but you do'. That was great! lol.

Overall, I still liked the book and I laughed my a** off most of the time while reading it.
