Title: tedious overdescription annoying
Review: Ya know good stories take many forms but bad ones are remarkaly consistent. Bad stories tend to have either weak characters, poor plot, or too much description. Such is the case of this overwrought hambly potboiler. Why use one adjective when 3 or 4 will do? She constantly goes off track with endless exposition,and bores us with details at best trivial. The end result is a story that steams along at a snails pace en I felt never really engages the reader. I see by the bio that hambly once taught high school. I hope never taught english because any english teacher I know worth their salt would have known better than to overwrite every page in this book!
