Didn’t she say something similar about Ellen’s not-quite-black hair in Shutdown?
Yep! It was definitely meant to be an insult there.
If she’s the first human, then Oliver the Earthmover was older than her, because he was a Homo erectus…soooo, how could she be the first vampire then?
Maybe he meant first... I dunno, primate? Rapist? I have no idea. Unlike with the precise shade of everyone's hair, LKH feels no need to go into detail even once on this point, let alone multiple times.
Wait, what the fuck kind of position are Micah/JC/Anita in? The hell?
An impossible one. They're all in that ridiculously deep tub too, so they must be floating at least a bit, especially Anita and Micah. LKH's descriptions of where people are in relation to each other never make any sense, but this scene's especially egregious.
LKH is so obsessed with cops/military/bodyguards
And she's known at least one: the guy Haven was based on. And from what I've seen people who know him say about him, he's a geeky goofball, not a sociopathic hardass. But LKH's grasp on character in the real world seems about as good as her grasp on character in her books.
