well for me The author has a really bad habit of over describing everything Every reference to something was like it was the first time We had to hear the exact description all over again Also, I really, really hate when an author has a character think something then immediately qualifies it Like he didn t have time to humor her, but he ached so badly inside with the need to comfort her That was my own example, but crap like that happened constantly Also, Nyky This book did not start off well for me The author has a really bad habit of over describing everything Every reference to
