Another fun quote from Stephen King’s new novel:
At the Reynolds Library, Holly gets both Edith Brookings (“Call me Edie”) and Margaret Brenner, another of the assistant librarians Penny mentioned. Edie is womaning the main desk, but says they can go in the reading room.
Stephen King, Holly
I was taken aback at first, trying to imagine how exactly poor Edie was “womaning” the desk but then I figured it out and wished I never had.
I’m quite alarmed at the author’s use of the word “mentioned”, though. Shouldn’t it be “womentioned”?
