in england they call stuff prawns when an american would call it a shrimp. the supposedly english main character in this book is talking about shrimp when she should be saying prawn. american author confirmed
also nothing else is remotely english about this setting but that’s fine i guess

apparently in this alternate history of england oysters are now considered a delicacy 80 years before they actually were. maybe the fairy queen was a big fan of them and changed their public perception?
or more likely, there is zero effort involved in making this book historically plausible lmao
