Hrm!

Dear Professional Author,
Y’know, the last hundred pages or so of the book are probably not the best
place to introduce new characters. I really don’t understand what the
purpose of this last story arc is aside from giving your character
omgmoreangst! Which he doesn’t need, clearly.

Also, I clearly do not have the patience for twue wuv because, were I the
love interest of the character you’re needlessly torturing, I would have hit
him over the head with a blunt object and run away to forge a bond of
soul-matey goodness with someone a little less exasperating.

Sincerely,
A fan who really does enjoy this author’s work… It’s just that I can’t
quite read it without rolling my eyes.
