[30 days of books] talk to her
May. 12th, 2011 08:35 pm20. Least favourite plot device employed by way too many books you actually enjoyed otherwise
communication breakdown. it's the reason that i rarely read romance novels - part of the formula is often some conflict that could be resolved with one honest conversation. COME ON PEOPLE.
but wow, it gets used a lot in all kinds of books. i prefer genuine conflict to trumped up ones, thanks. i'm slightly more okay with letters that go astray than people who don't talk to each other.*
*it's why i never liked Seinfeld. pretty much every episode would be five minutes long if they just told the truth to $person and dealt with the consequences as if they were adults.
