    I’m reading through Scott Pratt’s Joe Dillard series and while I enjoy the books, he’s got some hang up about height and it’s distracting. Every “good guy” is tall and the “bad guys” are all described as short, usually with other stereotypically unattractive features, but always, absolutely positively, without fail, under 6 feet tall. Idk why but it annoys me each time I read his descriptors that mention “6 feet”. Maybe because it takes me out of the story and into my head, already predicting what’s to come and figuratively rolling my eyes. A dumb pet peeve I guess but I was curious if anyone else noticed anything like this in the series they read. Did it ruin the series for you? Have you found a way to ignore it?
