[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 423537, member: 84"] Malika I like highbrow in an author actually. I have a rather extensive vocabulary......and enjoy books that don't talk down to me like I've not progressed past high school. I have to say I did enjoy the way the conversing part went. Enough that I could easily understand it......yet was believable in that setting. I didn't correct too much.....because of that. Anyone who loves to read........well, the book isn't set in America, so there will be some differences in the way the conversation flows. When I read books set in other countries......I'm reading that book for the storyline to be certain, but it can be a wealth of knowledge about a culture too, which I enjoy just as much....sometimes more. So if the conversations get too Americanized......you're going to lose part of that. So it's probably good that you're getting multiple opinions for this. [/QUOTE]
