Laurell K Hamilton woes....do I even want to risk it?

What happened to Laurell K Hamilton? She used to be my all time favorite author. Anita was the shiz. She kicked butt and snuggled up to the monsters.....then somewhere along the way, it became less vampire hunter kick ass girl book and more ridiculous magic vagina, harem porn.

What happened? I used to reserve copies and die w anticipation and now my eyes glaze over all the useless sex that is used as fluff to cover up that there is no plot (and that's the part that pisses me off the most). I would skip all the annoying pages, but that leaves only a handful left. Definitely not enough to wipe ur butt with. I miss the good old days of monsters (u killed, not slept with to defeat) and when she had a conscience. She also used to be more vulnerable. It complimented and rounded her out well cuz she was such a hard ass, now she's just emo. And hoe-y. Not someone I want to b anymore.

I'm going to re-read the series. 1) I need the meat 20 books add to my goal and 2) I wanna see if I can find when it all went to pot. I was 18 when I started the series. Ten years ago, let's see how much Anita has changed. And let's find out if I have changed as well.
