Continuing a brief series of posts in no particular order, about the things I hate to see in a book. Like...
I was reading a bestseller recently which was made into a TV show. (so kudos to the unnamed author on his resounding success!) Every time somebody threw up in the book, there was no "he retched," but plenty of "he wretched." Come. On. Man.

Up next: Too! Many! Characters!
Bad Editing!
