I loved how Taylor let us know Angel wrote "twaddle," by having the publishers mimic her writing in their speech. And Angel is such a character! I admired her stubbornness with the publisher, refusing to edit the "racy" scenes. However, I think she's quite awful with her mother and aunt. <br /><br />I definitely went through a "twaddle" phase in my teens but if I accidentally read such a book today, I just can't bear it.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07219439074687598827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2256130805076511496.post-63423665421849096432012-07-04T06:04:14.893+10:002012-07-04T06:04:14.893+10:00And what a great post it is !
