BarkingMadRead @Clare-Dragonfly I‘m so relieved 😰 15h

mcctrish Well that was action packed @Clare-Dragonfly they also don‘t read or finish thoughts or ever let us know what‘s going on! Emily is haunted by papers she burned and didn‘t read except for a few words which she won‘t recount to us 😡 14h

Bookwormjillk This book is almost over and I feel like we‘re still in the introduction. 13h

eeclayton @mcctrish I also really want to know what she saw behind that veil in the castle of Udolpho 😡 13h

mcctrish @eeclayton is this the mystery of udolpho? Unfinished thoughts? Things not described? Conversations not had? Things we missed cuz we fainted ? it‘s certainly not tears not shed #rivershavebeencried #lakeshavebeenfilled 13h

dabbe Your picture says EVERYTHING about this book that I simply could not finish. Absolute kudos to all of you who could! You are my inspiration! 💙❄️💙 12h

AllDebooks @mcctrish 😅🤣🤣 I actually feel cheated. This is supposed to be one of the most iconic, ground-breaking gothic novels and it's pure melodrama eeked out forrrrreeeevvvvvvver #teenagevoiceandeyeroll 👀🙄 Where all the ghosts and mysteries at? 8h

AllDebooks If you use the analogy of a walk in the park for the twists and turns of actual plot alongside all the flimflam melodrama that padded it out, we actually just walked every bloody peak in the Pyrenees. 8h

mcctrish @AllDebooks yay I got my steps in this week/month 8h

Clare-Dragonfly Emily persists in thinking the Count is an honest, nice guy who really cares about her well-being as he repeatedly shoves his obsessed buddy in her face 🙄 2d

mcctrish @Clare-Dragonfly 🤣🤣🤣 2d

AllDebooks Oh, we are so close to the end. The book, sanity, who knows? 🥳 I'm struck by the difference in writing style between this and Frankenstein, considering there are just over 20 years between publications. Mary Shelley was still in her teens when she wrote it. 2d

eeclayton Not to defend the Count, but I have the impression that he's been friends with Du Pont for much longer than with Emily, so it kinda makes sense to me that he wants to promote his happiness. Which of course doesn't make him any less annoying from E's point of view. 2d

BarkingMadRead @eeclayton that‘s a very good point 2d

TheAromaofBooks @eeclayton - I also think the Count sees sweet, lonely Emily at a time when being a single woman was actually somewhat unsafe & knows that his young friend is an upstanding guy who loves her and would take good care of her (vs taking advantage of her and stealing all her money). Like it's annoying to E because she doesn't want to marry him, but lots of people married for convenience, so unless the Count forces the issue, I can't fault him too much 2d

I'm currently participating in the final #hashtagbrigade #buddyread of the year. 10ish chapters left, and I just don't care anymore. I've never read a book with more loose ends, dead ends, and 'we won't talk about that' plot devices in my life. Thank goodness for @BarkingMadRead keeping us sane and the humour flowing. Otherwise, I would have bailed around chapter 10!
FYI, I got bored and did a word count. 🙄😅

AllDebooks @Librarybelle @BarkingMadRead Just so you know, it was on Kindle. I didn't sit there with a book and highlighter. I do have a life! 😅 4d

BarkingMadRead But still. You had to do the search 🤷🏻‍♀️ 4d

AllDebooks @BarkingMadRead 😬 you got me 4d

dabbe I managed to get through THE BROTHERS KARAMAZOV thanks to this group and @BarkingMadRead's hilarious posts and @Aimeesue's hysterical dioramas, but this one? I bailed at Book 2. And I had also tried to read it a few years ago. I just couldn't do it. Again. Writing that goes on and on an on and on with tears all over the place and too many descriptions and meandering everywhere ... bleh! I'll be up for the January read, though! 🤩 4d

mcctrish @dabbe The Bros was better ( never thought I‘d say that ) 4d

Bookwormjillk @mcctrish you know it‘s a bad book when #thebrosarebetter 4d

mcctrish @AllDebooks the fainting count surprises me, I must have fainted myself and missed then but all those ithers I have felt and I attribute them to the author‘s dithering 4d

mcctrish @Bookwormjillk it‘s mind boggling 4d

Ruthiella @Bookwormjillk @mcctrish 🤣🤣🤣 The Bros! Slightly less histrionic than The Mysteries of Udolfo! 4d

mcctrish @Ruthiella there was no crying 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 4d

Clare-Dragonfly Brilliant word counting 😂 4d

eeclayton Wow 😲 4d

AllDebooks @Clare-Dragonfly it's telling that I would rather do that than read the bloody thing. 😅 4d

TheAromaofBooks It honestly seems like there should be more crying 😂 Maybe we should add “tears“ to the word count?? Poor Emily, it just seems like her eyes must be swollen shut all the time! 4d

dabbe @mcctrish Well, that makes me feel a wee bit better. And you even helped me through a few chapters, and I still couldn't get through it! 🤩😂🤩 4d

mcctrish @dabbe you‘ve honestly missed nothing cuz nothing ever happens 4d

mcctrish @TheAromaofBooks it‘s amazing she can see anything 4d

TheAromaofBooks I gotta be honest, I freaking love Annette and her complete inability to keep a secret 😂 7d

BarkingMadRead @TheAromaofBooks without Annette, we wouldn‘t know a damn thing 🤣 7d

Clare-Dragonfly There doesn‘t seem to be much acknowledgement that Annette‘s husband has disappeared! 7d

Clare-Dragonfly Linguistic note: I see that Annette has switched from calling Emily “mamselle” to “madam”! This matches up with something I noted in the book I just finished—in English, Mrs was for a long time just a title of respect for an adult woman of a certain class, even if she wasn‘t married. The Mrs versus Miss for marital status distinction wasn‘t solidified until the mid-19th century. Emily is probably Madam now that she‘s inherited.

mcctrish What just happened? V admits to the debts he could never repay and that he isn‘t worthy of Emily AND is mad that she doesn‘t want to shackle herself to him?! He questions how long the count has been her friend? Meanwhile E has spent about 32 minutes in his actual company and expects her to marry him after whoring and gambling ? RUN AWAY EMILY 2w

Bklover @mcctrish yes! When I think of all the weeping and fainting over V it makes me want to scream. You are right- she doesn‘t even really know him! 2w

mcctrish It‘s nice she had him to focus on while at Udolpho but cut him loose now 2w

BarkingMadRead @mcctrish @Bklover #accurate 2w

Bookwormjillk At first I was kind of on V's side because yeah she just met this Count guy. But then he admitted to it all so bye V. And what is the story of the picture? 2w

BarkingMadRead @Bookwormjillk everyone is crying 🤷🏻‍♀️ 2w

Bookwormjillk @BarkingMadRead I meant the one that Emily's dad had that Dorethee was refusing to talk about. She is just not coming back? 2w

BarkingMadRead @Bookwormjillk ohhhhhhhh that picture! We may never know…. 2w

Clare-Dragonfly V keeps going “I‘m terrible and it‘s exactly like the Count says” except no one actually lays out what Emily or V is thinking. I‘d put money on V‘s actual actions not being as bad as what Emily thinks. Of course, I don‘t know whether he‘ll actually TELL HER that before they both die of old age! 2w

julieclair If we don‘t find out about the picture, I‘m going to go nuts. I‘m warming up my book-throwing arm… 2w

TheAromaofBooks Oh man, now I just don't know who Emily is going to marry! All her choices are terrible! I'm kind of leaning towards Henri; at least he hasn't been a stalker yet 😂 2w

BarkingMadRead @mcctrish I was so worried we would never find out 🤣 3w

Bookwormjillk I'm just so glad Emily appeared and we didn't have a whole new castle story. 3w

BarkingMadRead @Bookwormjillk that would have been devastating 🤣 3w

mcctrish It really could have gone either way at this point 3w

AllDebooks @Bookwormjillk aaaarrrgggh, can you imagine?? 🫣😱 3w

Bookwormjillk @AllDebooks yes I actually can that‘s why I was worried 😂 3w

Clare-Dragonfly I‘m relieved that we made it back to this castle. I spent like 14 chapters wondering when Emily was going to figure out that Udolpho was the creepy castle she saw before. Then I realized it was in Italy so it must be a different castle, and I wondered why they spent so much time being aware of that creepy castle! I also realized that the convent Blanche lived in must be a different one. I think Radcliffe has too many settings! 🙄 3w

mcctrish @Ruthiella she is now exhausted by her tears so maybe we can catch a break ( I didn‘t even realize she was crying. Again. ) 3w

Clare-Dragonfly Macaroni obviously isn‘t going to kill her, because he wouldn‘t inherit her estates (I presume her closest living relative would, and that‘s the mom‘s brother, whom it would be a lot harder to get the property from). But this seems like a lovely place so I‘m suspicious of the niceness. 3w

Bklover To me this book feels so much like it was written by a man! All the fainting and crying and weak women. And I mean a man back in that time. (edited) 3w

Bookwormjillk So weird. Glad she made a friend though. Random sea nymph poem inserted here. 3w

julieclair I‘m glad I don‘t have to “analyze” this book for an English class. I don‘t know what I‘d do about that sea nymph song! 😂 Which, by the way, was sung in the audio version and was completely tuneless!But at least Emily has made a friend. 3w

Clare-Dragonfly I was just thinking this couldn‘t possibly be set up by Macaroni because he doesn‘t need to be this subtle when he can just threaten her. And I was proven right!

Bookwormjillk Noodle gang 😂 1mo

Clare-Dragonfly The noodle gang 😂😂😂 1mo

peanutnine Annette is definitely my favorite character, her stories are ridiculous but so entertaining, especially when she was sworn to secrecy. Also the line "But the faculty of speech was never long withheld from Annette" had me laugh out loud ? 1mo

Bookwormjillk @TheAromaofBooks 😂😂😂 1mo

dabbe @TheAromaofBooks OMG ... so true!!!! 😂😂😂 1mo

mcctrish I realized at the start of my reading today we are only 43% through this nonsense and I could cry. And then we get a short chapter which I should be thrilled about, except we‘ve been reading for 100 years and nothing but crying has happened except V, after moping around in Emily‘s absence has moved to Paris to become a club kid 🤯 #wherethefuckisthisgoing (edited) 1mo

BarkingMadRead @mcctrish 🤣🤣🤣 this is scarily accurate 1mo

Clare-Dragonfly I don‘t like the short chapters! I am updating my reading percentage daily in Storygraph and when the percentage stays the same Storygraph thinks I haven‘t read any of this book 🤣 1mo

Clare-Dragonfly So V hung around until his regiment couldn‘t do without him anymore. And since they needed him so badly he… made social connections and started a gambling habit? 🤨 1mo

BarkingMadRead @Clare-Dragonfly boys are dumb and story graph needs to understand that 🤷🏻‍♀️ 1mo

ElizaMarie @MccTrish - YES!!! This book needs to #DOSOMETHING !!! #GOSOMEWHERE !! 1mo

mcctrish @Clare-Dragonfly StoryGraph will not like my Serial app micro-aggression reading style 🤣🤣 1mo

mcctrish @ElizaMarie it‘s ridiculous 1mo

Clare-Dragonfly @mcctrish micro-aggression is a good way to read this book 🤣 It isn‘t Storygraph‘s fault, I would be able to use page numbers if I were reading a physical book, but also there‘s *no way* I would read this in hard copy! 1mo

#Two4Tuesday is my fav question, thanks @TheSpineView

1/ I tend to plan ahead what I read, one of my favourite things is lining up future reads.

2/ I'm going to go for the #currentread for #hashtagbrigade, this one didn't go to plan, it took me 5 months to read and I was sure when I finished I'd think never again but no, it's left an impression and I would definitely read again, next time I'm hoping it doesn't take this long.

TheSpineView So glad you enjoy #Two4Tuesday Thanks for playing along! 😘 1mo

mcctrish This. Was. Bonkers. Also does Ann use up all her words describing the scenery and has none left over for the actual stuff? And by stuff I mean papers that get burned and portraits that make you faint 1mo

BarkingMadRead @mcctrish for real though! 1mo

Clare-Dragonfly This was such a long chapter but at least stuff happened? Very annoyed that we don‘t get to see what‘s behind the curtain. My money is on a dead body. ☠️ 1mo

BarkingMadRead @Clare-Dragonfly I would love it if it was a dead body, we need some action. 1mo

TheAromaofBooks I literally looked up spoilers to see what was behind the curtain because I couldn't deal with not knowing! 😂 1mo

BarkingMadRead @TheAromaofBooks Omg you know?!? Don‘t tell me. But omg. No. Don‘t tell me. Ahhhhhhh 1mo

Bklover @TheAromaofBooks I think you just gave me my justification to peek. 🫣 😊😊 1mo

Bookwormjillk Finished this chapter at exactly 11:59 pm. You know it‘s a long one when the hashtags extend into the comments. I giggled a bit when Auntie was like”whatever.” 1mo

TheAromaofBooks @BarkingMadRead @Bklover - I have to confess to the fact that I'm a spoiler lover 😂I don't like being stressed when I'm reading so sometimes I just gotta know! 😆 1mo

Clare-Dragonfly I was glad to see that Manchon is still around! 1mo

@TheSpineView (thanks for the tag! 💛🤎🧡)

1. I love to plan and make lists. Actually performing the lists, though ... well, that's another story entirely. 😂
2. If you want to read an early Gothic novel where everything (at least so far) just happens to our heroine while she weeps unendingly, then this is the book for you! 😄

If you read all of this, you're 🔖!

TheSpineView So get #1!! Thanks for playing 1mo

Clare-Dragonfly Definitely saw Marconi forbidding the marriage coming! There is a lot of sighing and fainting in this chapter. There is no way I would be slogging through this book without the #hashtagbrigade! I *will* learn what Catherine Morland gets so excited about! (edited) 1mo

Clare-Dragonfly I just realized I got his name wrong in a completely different way 😂 Montoni! 1mo

Clare-Dragonfly Also! Doesn‘t Valancourt have a first name? He calls Emily by her name all the time but she doesn‘t use his name in dialogue. Did Radcliffe just not feel like coming up with a first name? 1mo

BarkingMadRead @Clare-Dragonfly I don‘t think they‘ve mentioned a first name? I‘m not sure! 1mo

dabbe This is the perfect kind of book for me right now. No matter how bad things are or seem to be today, I am quite grateful to not be Emily in the late 1500's with absolutely no money and no say in what she can/can't do in her life. #yikes #andyesshecrieswaytoomuch #scmb 1mo

TheAromaofBooks The aunt being like “suck it up or people will judge you for not being able to get over your completely inappropriate boyfriend“ like 48 hours ago you were totally on his team?!?! Geezy 1mo

AnishaInkspill yeah the uncle 1mo

Bklover And now they‘re both crying. And dear obedient Emily will now be ordered around by Macaroni. 1mo

I didn‘t read any nonfiction yesterday but inspired by our chapter of Udolpho I did look up the definitions of verdant and verdure.

Verdant- green with grass or other rich vegetation
Verdure- lush green vegetation

1. I am all about the melancholy, and sunsets bring that out in me. A sunset over saguaros is quite breathtaking.
2. Gothic, France, Pyrenees

Clare-Dragonfly I‘m surprised to see both monks and nuns in a convent. I thought they were always sex-segregated. 2mo

ElizaMarie @peanutnine yes!!!! I always have to take an extra day off after taking days off from vacation! 2mo
