Trollope: "She instantly perceived that she had become possessed of great privileges by belonging even for a time to Matching Priory, and that she was essentially growing upwards towards the light."

Me: "All right, Trollope, the 'growing upwards' thing was a good metaphor, but you've used it enough times now. Don't do it anymore. You don't want to go overboard."

Trollope: "Outside, on the broad drive before the little station, she saw an omnibus that was going to the small town of Matching, intended for people who had not grown upwards as had been her lot . . ."

Me: "Grrrrrrr."

If it makes you feel any better, this is not as bad as the actual conversations I had with Suzanne Collins while reading teh Hunger Games trilogy.

Though on the other hand, that trilogy only took 6 hours of my life away.

So I guess you're stuck feeling bad.

:-P

He loves the concept so much, he has to hammer it into the story . . . XD (To be honest, I'm guilty of using favorite phrases way too much myself.)
