30 Day Book Meme (2014 version) - Day 12

Day 12 – A book you used to love but don’t anymore
2010 Answer: Laurell K. Hamilton's Anita Blake series

Going with another series, and that is Anne Perry's Thomas and Charlotte Pitt series.  It used to be really good in the beginning, when I discovered The Cater Street Hangman and devoured the rest.  It was reliably good up to book 19, Bedford Square, and then it fell into a problem a lot of series suffer from - characters get overburdened with roles.  Also, Charlotte's role in the investigations dwindled (which for me, that was the whole hook).  I haven't been tempted by one side book 25, Buckingham Palace Gardens, in which their maid seemed to be supplanting Charlotte.  It's also on the list of books series that is slowly being released into the wilds from my bookshelves.

80s Moment

So, nothing says entertainment like being at work on a Friday afternoon, watching some Voltron on YouTube because you need some background, and ... turning around to find your five-years-older boss watching like a little kid, waiting for Voltron to whip out the Blazing Sword.  (yes, desert_sdwndr, the Oak Leaf Show)

I love being MI.
