ironically I thought the prequel included in the end was better than the rest of the entire book, because it dropped the flowery pretense and just told a story

occasionally clear, brilliant imagery absolutely buried under pages of slop

put the word diamantine down. please. PLEASE.

someone hit her so hard her nasal bone fenestrates. like I understand what this is MEANT to mean but it's just not correct usage

I would be less annoyed if she were using the words correctly. "I cringe at its infantile architectonics" - she's cringing at the study of architecture? the STUDY of the sounds of her own voice? Khaw, please. put the thesaurus down.

I wish I'd dropped this earlier when I realized who this author was. nothing about her writing has changed. what is a "basal" laugh! be serious for a moment! get off tumblr!
