UGH ABSOLUTELY THIS ON THE PERSONAL SHOPPERS THING. and you can't tell me JC of all people wouldn't have a squad...although frankly I bet they get sick of being told to only buy the poofiest, frilliest, most low-cut of mens shirts.
I know this is a minor nitpick, but it just goes to show how little thought LKH put into the structure of her universe. I don't consider it a nitpick at all. Little details likes are INSANELY important in how 'real' a world feels to readers, in my opinion, and if anything they should be given MORE attention than just the big obvious concepts.
So we have her being forced into the dress--a scene that's been repeated in more Suefics than I can count. heck, it's repeated more times just in Anita Blake books than I can count!
