trancer21 just posted an awesome review (SPOILERS!! Don't click the link if you are afraid of SPOILERS!!!) of WWBC (with scrolling font, ya'll).
I have run out of words to describe my fucking epic hate-on for Cock Block right now, so I will respond to this entirely in graphics.
THE KILLER IS SOMEONE WHO'S NEVER BEEN INTRODUCED!!! Yep, that's right. It was some dude Ivy burned years ago and has been sitting in jail sight unseen.
Now, why does Rachel get rage against Kisten's killer when Ivy does not? Why is Rachel's love, and need for vengence, for a man she knew for less than a year *greater* than Ivy's love for someone she's known ALMOST ALL HER LIFE!?!
To: Ivy
From: Cock Block
Kisten's killer is killed by Kisten himself! Yep. His love for Rachel is so true, so real that even as a soulless undead vamp, he remembers their love and protects her ONE LAST TIME!!
Hey, did you know Rachel has a ghost in her church? Did you know that ghost has been there for almost a year? Oh and that ghost is a person from her past that Rachel has a DEEP AND MEANINGFUL CONNECTION with? A person that, after 6 books, appr. 2850 paperback pages and 1,000,000 words WE'VE NEVER HEARD ABOUT BEFORE!?!
Finding out Rachel's inspiration/motivation for joining the I.S. is a good thing, finding out 7 books later? Finding out that it's because of a ghost who - was the previous owner of her late father's watch, her first 'good kiss', a witch, involved somehow with Al and, oh yeah, a lifetime member of the 'Coven of Moral and Ethical Standards'...STEPHENIE MEYER SPARKLY-COVERED LLLAAAAMMMMEEEEE!!!
Has it ever been mentioned before that Ivy has a sister? Because I was all 'Erica who in the what now?'
Erica was first mentioned in Book 3. Rachel met her just before she met Skimmer at Ivy's parents house. She's popped up a bit sense then, but always in really small doses, because Ivy's life doesn't matter.
And do Ivy's parents actually have names?
*calms, remembers ... Ivy's life DOESN'T MATTER.*
What I feel at the thought of 6 more books ...
Edited for my response to![[info]](https://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif)
julygreen's comment below that the WWBC story that we've read (or in some cases just bought) is the product that was produced AFTER the editors made their suggestions and demands. Or as julygreen put it "Unless ... they [the editors] did [make suggestions to improve the story], and this is actually the improved version ... ?"
I know that not funny, it's horrifying. But I have to laugh..
... because sometimes words are not enough to fully express my loathing.

Date: 2009-03-29 07:50 am (UTC)Yeah. I know. I don't know if 6 more is 100% confirmed, but if Cock Block has mentioned it, then it's probably as close to a done deal as possible. There's going to be another 2 for sure though.
I would have been able to handle 9, but four more after that is too much for me. I think it'll be the length of the series, more than the cock-blocking that will get me to stop reading. I have a short attention span, I cannot follow this for another six years. I will lose interest. It is a fact ... a future fact.
BUt Rachel doesn't Want to HAVE SEX whit IVy!! Just because she's a woman??? What's wrong with her (& KIm HArrison)???
*Sigh* Yeah. Rachel's denial is unbelievable and ridiculous at this point. She should have said, "What the hell, let's try this" by now. She's obviously curious, she herself admits that she's thought about it, and she continues to think about it. Rachel hasn't even put forth the idea that she's scared about losing Ivy as a friend if things don't work out (which would be the strongest reason to hold back in my opinion). All of her resistance is focused on the fact that Ivy is female, but Rachel's responses to Ivy has shown that she is CLEARLY capable of physically responding to Ivy and being aroused by her. That plus her admitted love for Ivy, should have made Rachel give them a try books ago.
Rachel doesn't deserve her love anymore..
I'm feeling this way more and more. I kind of want a good woman to save Ivy from Rachel at this point. Rachel could have helped Ivy overcome her problems, but at this point Rachel is just the cause of Ivy getting more problems and loathing herself more.
