I love China Mieville, but he is waaayyyy too fond of the word “puissance.”
Don't know the meaning? Neither does anyone else.

Aimeesue Author's pet words get to be SO grating. No one has used that word in conversation in… ever, China! 😂😂😂 5y
AlaMich @Aimeesue Pet words...😡 I always wonder, where the heck was the editor? 5y
Aimeesue @AlaMich Right? I love the word “sussuration” but I‘m never going to USE it because even autocorrect wants to change it to “sissy rations.” Ha! (edited) 5y

Gezemice @Aimeesue lol! China Mieville is a thesaurus. I have only read one of his but I had to make a list of words with meanings. 5y
Susannah Don‘t you hate that? It gets so you‘re just waiting for the next time you see the author‘s pet word. 🤦♀️ 5y
AlaMich @Gezemice He really is! Which I mostly love about him. 😊 5y
