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! 😅 12h

AllDebooks @BarkingMadRead 😬 you got me 11h
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! 🤩 11h
mcctrish @dabbe The Bros was better ( never thought I‘d say that ) 11h
Bookwormjillk @mcctrish you know it‘s a bad book when #thebrosarebetter 11h
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 11h
