insipid.....
ok, so mm has regressed to past favorites........at least with books on tape.....the library was quite wanting in anything that interested me, so i checked out a classic....northanger abbey by jane austin......probably her novel that i am the least familiar with......so far....jane has used the word insipid twice.....and we are only to chapter 3........gentle readers.........some words may be used over and over....connectors, etc.....but other descriptives screamout from overuse.......jane has used the word sallow at least three times......i am being overly critical, i allow......i may simply overlook repeat use when i read,but when one listens.....such things are more easily noticed.......a curious development, as my close aquaintance asure me that i hear nothing they say to me.............
