I read a couple of romance novels, one very popular miserablist rom-com from 2024 which I found dull, and one very popular comedy romance from 1957 which I enjoyed and had some fun vocabulary.
Word I've never heard in the wild but understand: frowsiness. Word I've heard and used but not for a long time: cadge.
Now reading Dispersals by Jessica J Lee, 2024, which is an anthology of non-fiction essays on the history of natural history especially botany. Her writing style is pleasing me so far, even when my interest temporarily drifts from the subject.
