I cannot stand how the cover for <i>Beastly</i> looks on current editions. It totally distorts what actually happens in Kyle's transformation. Great, great list, and thank you for visiting! :D Happy reading!DJLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03251635323616566191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7105718.post-81695252305846168452011-03-23T00:01:35.799+00:002011-03-23T00:01:35.799+00:00Excellent list, I think just about everything on i...Excellent list, I think just about everything on it is a peeve of mine as well!

Nothing jolts you out of a story like a paragraph long compilation of "necessary" information. <br /><br />You know what else drives me crazy that your list reminded me of? Books with pages and pages of vague blurbs and *no* other information on the back cover, so you can't even tell *what* it's aboutMeganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07751131767729086158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7105718.post-19240091481406872952011-03-22T12:03:21.942+00:002011-03-22T12:03:21.942+00:00Infodumping is such a pain!Infodumping is such a pain!Willahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01901628974325954428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7105718.post-86910811275833460322011-03-22T11:44:06.654+00:002011-03-22T11:44:06.654+00:00Great list.
