I’m currently reading The Duke and I and the author is constantly using the word “acerbic”. I had never heard of the word before now and had to google the definition. The word has shown up so much that I’m tempted to go through the book and count its appearances lol.
Have you noticed any authors having favorite words that they use page after page?
He also mentioned TCM a lot in that book. King must have been watching a lot of classic movies when writing Fairy Tale. 😅
