Starting to notice this same habit with Disney shows as they are with Disney related books. They do a lot of telling and very little showing. I'm a good 2 hours into the audiobook and I swear at least an hour of it is just inner monologues explaining all the things that the characters have done that were not experiencing in the novel. It's just like the TV shows. We're kind of experiencing these between times. The characters are going through where they reflect on all the things they've gone through.. But we don't get any of the fun of actually having those experiences happen to the characters as often. I am all for a good inner monologue. But.. You have to have outer dramatic action as well. Show us how cool the characters are. Stop telling us.
