First Ellroy apprehension, and now Vicki Hendricks again.
Different tastes again, as I think IgLove was a good book. I
like the way she told the story, like the writing. I think
she's one of those writers that will have a strong impact on
HB writing in this century. And that's just it: the impact
will be later with another audience who don't mind these
things Ellroy and Hendricks do that seem to tick so many off.
Several writers who break rules and get readers mad at them
now will have a huge impact on future crime writers. If I
weren't sick with this rampaging cold/flu thing right now,
I'd think of a few names. Maybe later.
