All hail the Aeslin mice! They truly are the very best part! :)

Info dumps are the second worst sin, next to first person present tense, IMHO.

Worse than love triangles?

Had to think about that one. Most of the time the love triangles are limited to YA and romance, so at least I can anticipate and prepare my defenses. But info dumps creep into every genre. They're like cockroaches, breeding in the walls and dark corners.

I get a lot of them in cozies (love triangles, not roaches) so I think they'd have to go up to the top of the list for me along with info dumps. I can handle 1st/present better than I can those two, if it's written well.

Ah. Well, I've just started dipping my toes into the cozy mystery pool, so my feelings about triangles might change.
