A review by roniquereads
The Lunatic Cafe by Laurell K. Hamilton

3.0

I liked this segment of the Anita Blake series. I liked it, didn't love it. With this particular story, I developed a love/hate sentiment toward Anita. I love that she is so straight forward, dominant and I hate that she is so abrasive and sometimes uncaring. Maybe it's because I live in a world where vampires and werewolves are fantasy, but there were times in Lunatic Cafe, where I was begging Anita to give poor Richard a break. I like Richard, he's not a bad guy, I think. Anita though, just played this tug-of-war game with his emotions and her own throughout this whole story and in the end, I was exhausted just reading about it. I did like the whole "we're all dating" dynamic, that should be interesting to read in the next installment. However tired and sometimes put-off by reading about Anita, I always go back for more. Can't wait for book five.
