Phrases authors commonly use that annoy you: ex. *Mouth quirked up on one side*

Edit: OVERUSED phrases - I should have clarified when I said commonly used- a phrase you see over and over describing the same behaviors/people/scene etc…no offense intended 😉

Here are my latest:

-huffed a laugh

-Bit the inside of my cheek (as a nervous tic)

-bit my lip and tasted copper

-brow puckers

-fingernails dug moons into my palm (nervous tic)

-tasted salt (that’s when they realized they were crying)

-scrubbed hands over eyes/face

-sucked and laved her

So many more but those are the ones on the top of my mind for now hahaha please share some of yours of late
