Kids today, I tell ya

I just tried to read A LONG QUICHE GOODBYE by Avery Aames. In the first chapter she dropped 3 brand names and had the viewpoint character use the adjectives rustic, tawny, and quaint in completely non-ironical fashion. The second chapter began with her drinking cinnamon-laced coffee on the wrap around verandah of her vintage house.

Also her math skills suck. She says her grandparents left France after WWII for the US. In 2010, grandmere is 72. Uh, no. Not unless she married at age 6.

Luckily, I didn't buy it, I only got a sample from iBooks. No more for me thanks!
