You know what drives me nuts? A chapter two infodump that takes place in an academic setting as part of a discussion between students and/or teachers/mentors. Seriously, how many of these have I read? 30? Scalzi’s plots and worldbuilding are so fun but blarrrgggggghhh the infodumping is so predictable and frankly lazy writing. Tell by showing, not by telling.
