Explanation Concering Books The Lunatic Cafe (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter #4)
A dumb girl in love with both a vampire and a werewolf? This sounds slightly familiar... But, hey, this book was written first so I have a pretty good idea on who might have had the original idea.... (I'm smart like that.) I liked this book slightly better than the last one. Anita is still pretty annoying, but I can still appreciate a few things about her. I crossed my arms on my stomach. A psychologist would have said I was closed off, uncommunicative. Fuck them. See, I like that! In this book, we have Anita trying to solve a case in which several shapeshifters have gone missing. She is also trying to figure out her relationship with Richard, a werewolf. Things get a little hairy with him.. (haha, hairy...see what I did there?) Strangely, for a girl who made a big statement about the fact that she won't date monsters, she is sure singing a different tune all of the sudden. I will go out on a limb here and say that humans dating animals is creepy. And, Richard definitely showed himself to be an animal in this book. His reaction to a very disturbing "snuff film" was equally disturbing. Hey, crabman! But, for some reason, that doesn't scare Anita off. And, now she has agreed to date Jean Claude, the vampire king, at the same time as her wolf-man. That is one scary threesome. Edward is becoming one of my favorite characters in this series. He is such a heartless mercenary, and yet he has a soft-spot for Anita. It cracked me up when he told Anita why he was following her: "Following you around lets me kill a lot of people." That's very true, because as I have mentioned before, Anita has a big mouth and ends up having multiple attempts on her life in every book. Any bloodthirsty killer would love to follow her around and kill all of the people who are trying to kill her. He gets to look like a hero, all while fulfilling his murdery dreams. It's a win-win. I hope Edward will keep showing up in the next books, but I have a feeling that there might be a point where he gets hired to kill Anita. I will actually be on Team Edward at that point.Rating Based On Books The Lunatic Cafe (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter #4)

Okay, well, X does it.8) Jean-Claude/Richard tries to get in Anita's pants. Anita makes stupid agreement.9) BIG SHOWDOWN.These books are getting formulaic. I guess if the formula were aWARNING: This book is twisted and brilliant! Review contains certain details that are upsetting and some sexual reference is used. Thus .. the review will touch on a few details that are disgusting and unacceptable to sensitive and closed minds. If you are either of the above, please do not continue to read this review I love this book! The Anita Blake series is AWESOME! Unfortunately, there are a few books in this series that just flat-out stink. The Lunatic Cafe is most definitely NOT one of
These books seem to not only be getting darker but also more gruesome and frank depraved. This was my least favorite book of the series so far. I am going to continue reading and I hope that the elements of this book that I did not like do not make a reappearance.
This book begins where the previous left off so your best bet is to read these in order so you can figure out how these tangled relationships develop into the mess that becomes Anitas love life. Anita, Animator of the Dead, is seriously dating Richard the werewolf and is beginning to realize the perils of dating a monster. Jean Claude her other would-be beau is sticking his nose in their business because hes a jealous little vampire-man and hasnt been able to woo Anita with his vampire charms
WHYYYY are these books so bad? They have potential. A lot of potential. But instead of focusing on what is absolutely necessary in a 25+ book series, namely, character development and world-building, Hamilton focuses on action scenes and a whole bunch of stupid, pointless plot that keeps the story moving but gives us nothing.I finished this book less than 48 hours ago and I can hardly remember anything that happened. There were a bunch of shapeshifter action scenes, lots of Anita just being a
So we meet Richard, we kind of like Richard. I don't I do not find a fun moment with Richard at all. I much rather be with Jean-Claude. I love the vampire; I love the other shifter. But I do not love Richard. Also, hello? Edward. Who is awesomesauce. Ed, I am having fun with this series so far. People say that goes down hill. But I reserve the right to love these books through and through. I love LKH's other series and really it is getting better. So keep an open mind when you read this series.
It's a bit sad how Hamilton has some decent storylines, but manages to deliver them so poorly and secondary that the main point of this novel is a date-off between Jean-Claude and Richard. It doesn't really get any more superfluous than this - I hope! Considering there are still 13 more books to this series, I fear it probably will. Anita went from "ok, she is not Buffy, but at least she's a bit kickass" to being just an ass. She's completely self-righteous and probably the biggest monster of
