Ah yes...paranormal romance. I used to like Laurell K. Hamilton's two main paranormal romance series (not sure if she has more, I just know of the Anita Blake and Meredith Gentry ones) they were okay, but I kind of hated how in the Anita series, Anita starts off all bad-ass, no compromising, powerful woman, and through the course of the series kind of becomes an out of control sex fiend (admittedly, I haven't read past Skin Trade), but she used to be sort of the kind of person who didn't make mistakes or who at least would take responsibility for her actions, but then at some point just get all "sorry, vampire thrall, were-animal hormones, can't control it!" excuses all the time.
And maybe I'm just ranty over nothing; maybe the books really don't come across that way and I'm just reading too much into it, but it feels like the books became less about Anita and her necromancy and life specifically and became more like "let's see how many times she can have sex in 300 pages".
