The one thing that has my eyes rolling in the back of my head, and my mind fighting to pay attention, is overly descriptiveness. That for me is the worst of all. I just get so bored with reading about the interior decorating of a room that I either skip ahead or move on to a different writer.
That and flat characters! Ugh. I read a book the other day where you couldn't tell one character from the other. And nobody had any emotions.
