I am currently reading a modern fiction book set in England and written by an English author. I am pleased that the edition that I purchased in America did not edit out British spellings and expressions.
I recently read a book that was about Americans but written by an English author. I was annoyed because some of the characters used British words and had British traits, and sometimes you thought that character would never say or do that in America!
I guess what I'm saying is that consistency to character and culture is important to me. I don't mind reading English spellings in books published in America, especially if it is relevant to the narrative.
