I agree, and that's part of what I have to rant about. On one hand, I'm getting a lot of schadenfreud out of this, that I'm not terribly proud of. And I'm glad it's hopefully putting a dent in the packing of books before they are even written (and the really odd lengths teen overachievement has come to -- I'm all for ambition, to a fault, but I dislike it as a shortcut to respectibility -- I have to find a way to make that clearer later.), but seriously. Had I my way, I think far too many of my characters would have such terribly dark eyes. On the other hand, the profusion of small thefts in this is utterly out of control.
