Readers will often look past substantive issues and finish the book, but they won't pick up another book
by that author, and they will
leave negative
comments, such as, «Some parts were confusing» (a problem with consistency), «The writing was choppy» (a problem with flow within and between paragraphs), «It wasn't well written» (a problem with awkward sentences and possibly other various issues), «I wasn't sure who was saying what» or «The dialogue wasn't that great,» and «It didn't really hold my attention» or «The story was boring» (a problem with telling
instead of showing).
