In fairness to Marc's (read the aricle to see who he is!!) point about the word "perfect," I did just use word search on the Kindle to discover that the book contains all of the following phrases: "His perfect features." "His icy, perfect lips." "His perfect teeth." "His perfect voice." "His perfect face." "His perfect nose." "He was ... as usual, perfect and beautiful." "His perfect musculature." "He was too perfect." "A perfect statue." "The perfect texture" (of his skin). "The perfect muscles of his arm." "His perfect face" (again). "His perfect face" (third time).
And the word "eyes" appears 485 times, which is about once every page-and-a-third in hardcover. She does love eyes.
and then...
Every time I hear someone make the "at least people/children are reading!" argument, I wonder if they say "at least they're getting exercise!" when they see people running from the cops.
Just because activities are generally beneficial/virtuous/what have you doesn't mean that every application of them is worth defending
this one almost made me pee myself:
oh, just wait 'til you read "new moon". her incessant descriptions of jacob as "russet-skinned" will make you want to punch every potato you ever come in contact with for the rest of your life.
