Narcissus in Chains Chapter Fifty Two
Dottie's chapter is here
Let's swoop down and vanquish this piece of crap, shall we?
"I sat on the white couch with its brand new bullet hole."
1). We already know the couch is white.
2). It being white doesn't really contrast with the fact that there's a bullet hole in it, even though LKH plainly wants me to think this is a wonderful juxtaposition of refinement and violence. Out of

Narcissus in Chains Chapter Fifty One
Look what I got. So this next part? It's a rant. You can skip it if you like and get right to the Anita chapter.
The book pictured above is supposedly fiction, written by LKH's first personal assistant Darla after the two parted ways. The book just so happens to be about a personal assistant to a spec fic author. The author gets more and more famous and more and more crazy as times goes on.

Narcissus in Chains Chapter Fifty
Ugh is this going to involve more not-sex sex? It's like the erotica I wrote when I was fourteen.
"We kissed, and it was like melting from the mouth down."
For some reason J.C. and Micah start fighting. Anita pulls her gun and fires a bullet in to the couch, which is hugely irresponsible and ought to give her and Micah hearing damage. Anita threatens to shoot them both if they don't stop

Narcissus in Chains Chapter Forty Nine
Welp, here we go.
Anita natters on about J.C.'s curtains. They are "...like a huge fairytale tent."
Now that is some low effort bullshit right there. What does that even mean? Fairies from what mythology? Irish, Vietamese? What? And what sort of things are fairies supposed to like? I can grasp that she probably means gauzy and floaty, but for god's sake. She fritters away every opportunity

Narcissus in Chains Chapter Forty Nine
I owe you guys like three chapters. I'm sorry. I was sick and I'm still not 100%. Like, couldn't hold my head up sick.
Hey it's like me, Dottie, and Chelsea all being forced to read LKH.
Remember that scene from one of the Addams Family movies where Wenesday is forced to watch sugary princess movies all afternoon as a punishment? That's what this feels like.
And we're back at the Circus of

Narcissus in Chains Chapter Forty Seven
LKH says a bunch of amazingly offensive shit
Dottie's chapter here
"There was still a thread of light in the sky, like a slender golden ribbon, glowing against the push of dark, dark clouds..."
You know how die hard LKH fans accuse us of being jealous haters? It's not so much jealousy as PURE OUTRAGE that someone who can't even manage the bare basics of her craft is swimming through a

Narcissus in Chains Chapter Forty Six
The MacNairs (snakes) and Mrs. Talbot (dog) leave. Christine leaves despite Anita offering a place for her to stay, because the only thing LKH knows about tigers is that they're independent.
For some reason Donovan is always introduced as Donovan Reese instead of just Donovan. Anita has the brass balls to say "I hope her [Christine's] independence doesn't get her hurt" as if Anita herself

Narcissus In Chains Chapter Forty Five
Dottie's post here
Dolph answers by saying "Dolph." Somehow his phone answering habits are supposed to be characterizing, because Anita goes on about them for a fat paragraph.
Anita tells Dolph everything. She points out that the Talbot kid wants to be a doctor, and that the Ursa is a chiropractor. The lions own a restaurant. If it comes out that they're all weres, they're all likely to

Narcissus in Chains Chapter Forty Four
Donovan Reese is the whitest thing that ever happened, and Anita just so happens to have a white couch for him to curl up on. Symbolism! Even though Anita having a white couch is a dumb fucking idea. I bet it's coated in leopard fur. She must buy stock in those little sticky roller things.
Just kidding, this is the whitest thing that has ever happened:
Donovan brought two ornamental
