i can't speak on this specific book yet but i really dislike when authors do that. when they put too much emphasis on trying to give the characters a specific accent or whatever. There are so many other creative ways of setting the scene and the characters like you said.
I'm just finishing the Secret Life of Bees and I agree that the style is smooth and mature, even with the thoughts of a young girl. It is spoken in a descriptive way that helps make the points.
I'm thinking of skipping the orange laughter...I'll take your word on it.
