I've just finished "Resurection Day" by the interestingly named Brendon DuBois.
It was OK , rather ho-hum, and somewhat flabby in parts. Had to read it, 'cos Ordered to by son. Not ebook.
But the real thing that killed it for me was the frequent expression "had on".
Now I know it is American usage or vernacular, but in this novel it seemed to crop up every few pages, he had on... she had on... they had on ..
I just longed for the odd "wore" but I appreciate that's a bit Brit, so I just wished they either had nothing on, stayed indoors unseen, or simply got shot in the shower !!
