just a quick moan

Ok, so there's an author I really love (not naming names now b/c it's a moan and not a Yay!) who writes m/m erotic romance. I really love her work (did I say that already?) because she writes good drama, good conflict, characters I really enjoy reading and just want to mother to death.

But.

See, I have this inner English teacher. She's about 60 or so, crazy grey hair, and she LOVES her red pencil. You know the one. You remember her from, oh, 8th grade or so.

And this particular author's stories just absolutely drive her BATTY! It's a good thing I'm totally in love with my eReader, or the screen would be a mess! (Gee, I'm exclamatory today.) But I can over look all this--with difficulty--but there's a bigger problem.

You see, she's also the queen of the premature ejaculation. And I'm not exactly meaning this the way you think I am. I mean, yeah, a couple of guys...come too soon, y'know. But that's not necessarily a problem. The problem is, she flicks the switch. This one story I read yesterday, it was all "OMG OMG I hate you, you're untrustworthy because of your job." one second, then *literally* the next minute he's all "OMG srsly, I fell in love the minute I saw you but I've been fighting it 'cause it's soo hard for me to trust but I must take you to bed Right The Hell NOW dammit!" and other dude's all "OMG I loved you too and don't you KNOW I would NEVER EVER betray you and you've hurt me and hurt me over and over at every opportunity but OMG Must Have Sex NOW!"

And just...no.

I mean, yeah, the whole time she's been dropping hints that douchebag doesn't trust pretty boy, but wants him anyway, against his will, and has been slowlyslowly coming to terms with it, but for me, for the flow of the story, he needed a couple more encounters and a slower lead-up before the OMGsex scene. It was just a bit abrupt, and jolted me out of the good story high I was floating along on.

And before the cum had even dried, they're all like, OMG move in with me! Live with me forEVAH! (AND they forgot the condoms. Srsly. Safety first, people, or we can't complain about how careless/thoughtless/whatevs the younger generation is.)
