"An elderly customer told me that her book club's next book was 'Dracula', but she couldn't remember what he'd written."

"He is a well-spoken man in his mid-fifties with the customary waistline that accompanies inactive middle-aged men."

What a gentle description of some age caused weight. Sentences like that make me giggle and this style is continuing. Thus: I really love it so far. (Already yearning for Wigtown, even though that place was depicted in just a few sentences)
