It's a wonder I hadn't made this installment in the "Fans Recommending" series yet, especially with some people specifically requesting it. But here it is at...
I think there's something about Mormonism that stunts people emotionally and intellectually. Orson Scott Card*, Brandon Sanderson, Stephanie Meyer, David Farland, they all have this ... simplicity and juveinility to their characterizations of people and relationships. It's hard to put my finger on.
ok I will admit OSC has written a couple brilliant works but I believe he accidentally struck gold with those based on how dogshit and pathetic most of his books are.
Brandon Sanderson is absolutely overrated.

I hate Orson Scott Card, especially his recent work lol
