Book Club on Yik Yak | Silly take: when authors use “pad” instead of “walk” or something I can’t help but cringe. Idk what it is, I know it’s probably better writing than just saying “I walked into the room” but I can’t help but imagine it as like waddling lol 🦆

i know they use it to say the character is like walking in quietly/ sneaking in without just saying that but it just always makes me think of a cat lol

I also think of a kitty. Soft quiet footsteps. It feels like contentment to me idk why maybe I just like cats too much
