Still not entirely sure what Liam and Ben look like. I think Ben has dark eyes and hair and is slightly taller than Liam but that’s it. It is annoying me now.

Too much to-ing and fro-ing, for too long didn’t give the characters enough time to reconnect as a couple or for me as a reader to become invested in their HEA.

I can't "see" what people look like in books. I read the descriptions and then totally forget what they look like.

I’m the opposite and have to have physical descriptions otherwise every time the character is on page I get distracted trying to imagine what they look like. I read a book once where the author described a character well, except for his eye colour, so I gave him blue eyes in my head. At a very late point in the book they were mentioned as being brown. Completely threw me and spoilt the read because I was arguing (with myself) that they had to be blue. Lack of physical description became a huge pet peeve after that. 🤣
My biggest pet Peever is timelines. Especially series where they have a book every year and the characters are to age yearly. Then they add another series and link the first. If the past characters and secondary ones don't age, I finally give up.
No, don’t apologise. I understand pet peeves. I’ve just done a bit of a ranting update about my biggest pet peeve ever. 😂
