what i hate about you

Kidding. It's what I hate about books. Because I know you're dying to know . Hopefully I don't piss anyone off.

• Snarky, Clever, or Stating-the-Obvious internal narrative, especially when it's done for the sake of establishing voice.
• Internal narrative that repeats information rather than adds new information.
• Crappy-written action and dialogue that relies on internal narrative for support.
  
• Lengthy setting descriptions.
• First person with a ton of internal narrative. (I often avoid FP POV)
• Tough chicks with something to prove.
• Every chapter ending on a life-threatening hook.
• When authors try too hard to "say something."
• In general, romance as a main plot-line. (that one really is just me)

Sensing a theme there with the internal narrative? Not a big fan of a ton of internal narrative. Much of it is quite useless in books, even published books. I DO NOT mind narrative that tells, though. Sometimes that's the most efficient way to get info across and get us back to the story.

What do you hate?
