( stupid Heroes )

books 2008: New Moon, by Stephenie Meyer

My friend Kristina lent me the rest of the series. :) Still a guilty pleasure, but now I'm enjoying counting the number of times Meyer uses the word "russet". Earlier today I caught "russet" in the same sentence as some gleaming white teeth, which is totally worth bonus points. And now I see what that dude meant when he claimed that Meyer is incapable of using the word "said"--her characters snicker, grumble, disagree, demand, gasp, mumble, and complain (from the randomly chosen pages 326-327), along with a variety of other creative verbs, but very rarely do they "say" anything. It's actually really hilarious. Still a guilty pleasure, though.
