Sooooo, longtime reader new LJ poster.... I only got started reading these @#$#%%@@% books because of your fanfic so now I'm hooked (on your fanfic, not necessarily the KH books :).... I too am frustrated with the back and forth, not quite getting there nature of the Ravy relationship but I have to say, I would be more upset to see them get together now to have KH then break them up for awhile, than I will be if she were to have them dabble in others then ultimately "see the light" at the end. She can have all kinds of storylines for the next few books that just focus on general non-romantic things (though I suppose for Rachel that would be asking too much) that would 'delay the talk' for them for another few books. I also have to admit I didn't really grasp an inevitable Ivy/Glen relationship in WWBC and will be extremely disappointed if KH goes down that road. The least she can do is give us Ivy in a not-totally-dysfunctional relationship with a woman so that we can all say "un huh, Rachel, see there, that be what you missin' Chica!" To me, KH having Ivy in a relationship with a man won't be nearly as threatening to Rachel's "Ivy worships me so I can have her whenever I want' mindset as having her in a relationship with another woman would. Just my 1 cent (because the dollar sucks right now ;0)
