Ordinary Day

Merry and Anita are both Laurell K. Hamilton, who is short, dark-haired, and who may or may not be a scarred badass. The ladies who used to run ... I've forgotten the name of the bookstore. A fantasy bookstore in the Bay Area. Future Fantasy, or something like that. It's closed now. Anyway, they'd had Laurell to the store to do book signings, and they say that while she's in denial, it's pretty clear to /them/ that Anita's a souped-up version of Laurell.

I can live with one Mary Sue. I was very, *very* disappointed when Merry turned out to be a short, dark-haired, bad-assed sidhe. Even if the book had had plot other than the sex, I don't think I'll read the next one, because it mostly seems to me at this point that Ms. Hamilton needs to get laid by a multitude of anime elf boys, and I've got my own fantasies. Don't need hers. :)
