I've just had a moment.
I was reading a highly recommended piece of work, and I find it unbelievably pretentious, overworked, and ridiculously over-plotted. Sigh. I shan't be finishing it.
I'm extremely glad I don't have to give this author feedback. It's difficult enough to give constructive criticism at any point, but this author has received so many fawning accolades I'm certain she now believes her own press. I fervently hope never to follow in those footsteps.
[post script: just as a point of interest, the author isn't on among my f-list]
