- "The characters speak in colloquial language, using words such as "silly," "darling chicken-flower," and "wop." The language is humble, but it is suggestive of the culture and personality of the characters." - Keep It Classy
- "Adair's passage is more of a in-your-face type of writing. She says things like "She was in ready position, but frozen like a deer in headlights, sniper rifle silent, and useless, in her hands." To me, that just seems more of a "Hey! Here it is!!!" type of writing." - Twilight
- "In Neil Gaiman's Stardust, the rocky terrain and harmonious forest create a high sense of tranquility as one observes the town of Wall." - The Blog of Epic Proportions
- "Picturesque and somewhat blunt all at once, Dostoevsky describes a man walking down a street in a sensuous, tangible string of words that sets an automatic environment for the scene at hand." - Look Up... (Now!)
- "He talks about the sheeps grazing on the out skirts which is sweet and calming" - J-Momma
My two favorite are Keep it Classy and Look Up... (Now!). I love "The language is humble. . " I've never really heard language described like that before. I also like "... tangible string of words" the Look Up Now uses, I just love the word tangible.
