I already mentioned this to JM, but...I finished Corpse - it was good, not great. However, there came a point where I was felt she was just writing certain scenes - both the sex and graphic violence - for the shock value and not to move the story along. Like, "oh, I'm so cutting edge and only prudes will have a problem with what I write." Actually, that's how I felt about Vigil/Quinn's "Faust" too - like, in trying to be "oh so hip and daring," Quinn and Brite forgot that the writing had to be good and scenes should be written to get the story along.
Still, I would give Brite another shot - after I get through the stack of other books I bought...
Dear, sweet Harley Kwink...I'm madly in love with you. Marry me! We can go to Canadia. Or Boston or something. It'll be grand...You know the cookies are a given. They are ALWAYS a given. You could dump me tomorrow and you'd still get the cookies. Boston..shit, wherever dyke weddings were legalized. And where better to rub their little piggie noses in how bad they suck than right on their doorstep? What are they gonna do? Be jealous of you? Stare furiously at your tah-tahs? Not willingly give you cookies, but instead begrudgingly give you their cookies? Woman, time to wake up to the powers you wield - Uschi
