Fine, then say you do not like his style, that you think his writing is clumsy and uncompelling then move on.

Your proposed 12 edition musing about how Jordan does not advance his plots, does not develop his characters the way you think he should, and spends too many words describing clothes and repetative manerism is not needed. It has all been written before, andpossibly better. Simply say "Me Too!" and go do something new. There is an entire Library of Congress of books out there with hundreds of new ones being published each month just begging to be compared against your sylistc preferences. It should not be hard to find one that someone else has not done yet.
