    Kind of action/thrillery. I'd probably pick it up, because for some odd reason, I adore the word perception. Naked and Ashamed

    I don't mind chick lit in general, and I definitely don't mind risque, but I do mind cookie cutter characters. So, will of my literary snobbishness, I don't like them ...

    I saw Snoink and WD do this and I thought it was quite cool- writing chapter titles. It's quite fun, and you can get a vague idea of what happens ...

    As long as it makes sense. If your character uses them in a modern day public school as just basic speech, maybe not. But if it's more than forty years ...
