I loved Bridget Collins other work and I am enjoying the story with this one, but it seems so dense with words that I can’t understand. I’m just glad I’m reading it on my e-reader becuase I can just press on the word and it’ll tell me what it means. I’m actually close to giving up with it becuase it seems so pretentious. Why would you describe something as a ‘susurrus’ when you could use a ‘whisper’ or ‘murmur’. Why would you say ‘arras’ when you could say ‘curtain’.
I wouldn’t even say I’m below average in word comprehension, I’m a big reader.
