With the change in jobs, I no longer get a nice hour-long lunch break. My reading of paperbacks has decreased substantially while my electronic reading has leapt.

I still miss the Anita from the first books. Anita was not as powerful, physically, as she is now. To me it appears that Anita is focusing on her physical strength rather than her magical strength. I have not read anything about her magic or necromancy in several books. In the earlier books, Anita scared the crap out of the vampires with her magic, so why is she so concentrated on physically battling the Harlequin?

I miss the early Anita from the first books before she acquired all of her powers in these later books. Sure Anita is badass now. I am sure that the primary demographic these books are aimed at love the idea of a woman with more than 15 drop-dead gorgeous men at her beck and call.
