Too many phrases that turns me off. "Something loosens under my bones" "My chest tightens" "The woods doesn't flatter. It keeps score." "My ribs tighten".
Yeah. No. Love the plot. But cannot continue.

Lately I've been seeing certain phrase choices come up in books, and it makes me wonder if this is an emergent trend, or something else.
Phrases like "my chest tightened" and "the wood doesn't flatter. It keeps score" and "my ribs unclenches".
It brings a very weird vibe to my imagination. I get what the author wanted me to imagine. But the prose is...something.
Have you guys bumped into these phrases? Mind sharing your two cents? :)

Decent cosy story. Emotions doesn't run a sharp roller coaster. Good enough for me :)
