For what Snoink is saying, I think tone or voice would be more precise. Style (especially as Gal is defining it) is self-conscious, pointed - perhaps apt in satire - ...

I don't skim...not books at least. (Though I will admit to skimming your post, as Jack and BB. I believe I read first sentence or two, and bounced to the ...

In summary it sounds endlessly uninventive. But being summary - who could tell? (No, I don't much care for summarisation - excellent way to kill something in words.) I can ...
