The man equally needs to open and close a thesaurus.
But despite my criticisms, I really did love these books. I absolutely loved the characters, except the bad ones, lol. And the plot was weird and strange in a way which made it hard to put down. Despite the length, I was invested in these stories. I needed to know how it was going to all end. So, for me at least, I consider that a sign of a damn good book.
