Novella: Novel and Fiction

I began reading a book that had (470 ?) chapters. I don’t mind the length of the book, but a chapter should be longer than a page and a half. The basic story is interesting, and there’s grammar and spelling are perfect, but there’s so much superfluous and repetitive dialog and description that it becomes boring. Everybody wants to kill everyone else. This book could use a decent proof reader. Character names change for a few chapters, suggesting that chapters weren’t written sequentially, and the final writing renamed characters. Just missed a few chapters. But the reader has to figure out Who is who so that the plot makes some sense. There are lots of family members in all of the families. A family tree design would help the readers a lot, especially those that put down a book for a day or two. And the repetition…every woman in the book makes a fist so tight that her fingernails draw blood. There’s more, but you get the idea. The geography…I know the author is from another country, but if I wrote a book that described a city park in Beijing that had giant redwoods, you’d think I hadn’t done my homework. Redwoods don’t grow on the east coast. They’re west coast trees. And the Appalachian mountains are pretty short. The highest peak is just over 6,600 ft. And then there’s poor Jeremiah. He never eats, he never sleeps, heck, he never even takes a shower. Is he a robot? I finally gave up after 390+ chapters.

I love the ability to have many ways that you can read this. I like I don’t mind watching commercials to continue my reading to the point where I exceed watching the commercials then I have other things I can do to obtain enough points to continue reading until I get to the point where I do pay, and it’s not a lot of money like some apps require but it’s not stressful if you understand what I mean
