sesquipedalian 's review for:
Wildest Dreams
by Kristen Ashley
Though I greatly enjoyed this book, rereading it has reminded me of the things that irritated me about it.
First, bad/lazy editing:
Passed is used in place of past every single time! It's not that difficult, an editor should know these things. Or is it an Americanism that I'm not aware of? I know that I don't have especially good grammar skills but word misuse really rankles with me.
Full proof! Really? I'm surprised, really surprised (and appalled).
Second, is it really necessary for Finnie to whisper so often? For the record, whisper comes up 398 times in 536 pages. That's OTT even for the non discerning reader. After about the 100th time it really gets irritating.
