Read published books and annotate what you like about them! & When you look back at the annotation sections later, try to keep in mind what each word adds to the atmosphere, plot, character, imagery, etc. And though BookTok books can be fun, they tend to sound similar, which makes it hard to learn something new! So try classic & contemporary literary fiction, poetry, all sorts of different types to see what else is out there! Oh! And also, check out The Elements of Style by William Strunk!
