This author certainly liked to describe the physical characteristics of the characters. REALLY used unkind words to describe people who were overweight. Plus, there was no need (in my opinion) to spend 5 pages making internal monologue fat "joke" comment/descriptions about a minor character. Furthermore, the plot took too long to get to the point. Was hoping I found a new series to jump into but, I do not foresee me reading anymore of the alphabet.
