Bookwormjillk Nice writing and I guess a nice change from British manor houses, but not my favorite. Thanks @BarkingMadRead and the rest of the #HashtagBrigade you make these books fun. 1y

mcctrish I‘m really struggling with finishing this 🤦🏻♀️ this week has been awful in teaching land and this has not been the book I can handle at the end of the day 😞 hopefully I knock it off in the car to Toronto this morning. Thank you so much for keeping us on track and focussed with the ##### 1y
BarkingMadRead @mcctrish safe travels!! 1y
TheAromaofBooks I feel like this book had some good things to say, but I didn't connect with the story or the characters at all. Instead of coming away feeling like I should give people who “aren't like me“ the benefit of the doubt because they're probably good people, I feel like I shouldn't trust them OR the people who “are like me“ because everyone sucks 😂 1y
BarkingMadRead @TheAromaofBooks #everybodysucks was basically my takeaway 🤣 1y

AnnR Beautiful prose but a frustrating story. I agree with prior comments, the ending was meh. I'm glad to have finally read it though. Thank you @BarkingMadRead for leading the discussion. The daily posts and entertaining hashtags definitely helps keep my reading on track. 🙂 (edited) 1y
Librarybelle Yeah…the ending was a bit lackluster. Thanks, @BarkingMadRead for another great reading month! 1y
Morr_Books I too agree with what everyone is saying. What was up with all the comments of women being ugly or beautiful? It was so frustrating. I liked A Room with a View and its characters much better. 1y
Bklover I ended up really loving this book overall. I think mainly because I learned a lot. I knew next to nothing about this place and time in history. The characters all drove me nuts though, and in the end were pretty much unlikeable. @jenniferw88 thank you for all your insights- you were very helpful! 1y
Bklover Thank you to @BarkingMadRead for again guiding us through another classic. You are probably the only reason I make it through! 1y
BarkingMadRead It‘s always a pleasure!!! 1y
Ruthiella Thank you for leading us @BarkingMadRead ! I enjoyed it more than you did, but agree that the end is less than heartwarming. @jenniferw88 I will send you you #Ihateadela card membership soon! 😂 1y
dabbe I agree with ALL of you! I never would have finished if it wasn't for the always-hilarious #hashtagqueen @BarkingMadRead and the notes from @jenniferw88. I would have BAILED. The word I kept thinking while reading was “awkward.“ Everyone seemed awkward with each other, but I appreciate Forster making both sides have unlikable characters (though colonizing is bad!). Give me ROOM WITH A VIEW over this. Glad I made it through with all of you! 🤗 1y
willaful I found the book pretty confusing overall, and depressing, but the very end spoke to me. It's sadly still so relevant. 1y
mcctrish I finished it #yayme please consider this my entreaty to join the #ihateadela club #brosbeforehosforever 1y
