Clare-Dragonfly I‘m so proud of Marian for being so proactive and brave. The Count is so evil! I‘m worried about what will happen to Anne 😬 He keeps finding things Marian has written and not destroying or messing with them even if that would be the smart thing to do… because he‘s so diabolical he thinks he‘ll get away with it anyway! I hope he doesn‘t! 4w
Clare-Dragonfly Any guesses on #percypig‘s Secret? I wonder if he isn‘t really who he says he is… maybe a bastard or the product of an affair? 4w
BarkingMadRead @Clare-Dragonfly ohhhhhh I wonder! Because Anne‘s mom knew the secret first! I can‘t wait to find out 4w
ElizaMarie I wonder if somehow Percy is related to Anne? Or had impregnated her? Ahhh I need to know how damaging this secret is!? Its got to be juicy with all this talk of murder! Oooo maybe they know Percy murdered someone (Ann‘s daddy?) 4w
Leftcoastzen Greedy & creepy they are ! 4w

Leftcoastzen 😂👏 4w
Bookwormjillk Super stressful 4w
Leftcoastzen I was hoping they might be able to get a letter out & get a response. #Countporkchop keeps a close eye on things , I know novels of this era draws things out , but I‘m yelling at the book if there is a secret , tell Laura & Marian NOW!😄 4w
mcctrish #countporkchop is the mastermind! How much money does #percypig owe him? I loathe the countess, Ann is the hero 4w
Clare-Dragonfly How exciting! I wanted to cheer when Laura wouldn‘t sign the paper without reading it. She learned something from Emily! 😂 I‘m glad #countporkchop only read Marian‘s letter—I was afraid he would have tampered with it. 4w
ElizaMarie #WhatIsTheSecret !? I need to know! The suspense keeps building up! 4w
julieclair So much suspense. #bitingmynails I was surprised #Countporkchop didn‘t just destroy the letter after reading it. 4w
julieclair @mcctrish Yes to everything you said! 💯 4w
dabbe I can't stop laughing at the #percypig, #countporkchop and #countesscoldeye hashtags! 🤣 3w
BarkingMadRead @dabbe they take up so much space but it‘s so worth it 🤣🤣🤣 3w

willaful Man, what a depressing chapter. I hope Esther is going to get some help but I kind of doubt it. :-\ 1mo
BarkingMadRead @willaful I‘m worried that she will think she doesn‘t need it 1mo
Deblovestoread Mrs. Kravitz! 1mo
Clare-Dragonfly @BarkingMadRead Same! Or that the shrink will be terrible… 1mo
Bookwormjillk I‘m with you all hoping she gets the help she needs. 1mo
tpixie @Deblovestoread 😝 @BarkingMadRead Mrs Kravitz!!! 🧙 I LOVED Bewitched 1mo
willaful @Clare-Dragonfly I think it's almost guaranteed that the shrink will be terrible. 😞 1mo
Deblovestoread I loved Bewitched, too! @tpixie I was glad the family doc didn‘t just throw more pills at her. Hopefully her referral is a good one! 1mo
dabbe Esther has never had anything below an “A“ in her life. She wins contests, too. Not getting into the summer class was her complete undoing. I'm almost scared now to read more.

BTW, do they live in a house in Boston? If so, why do the mom and Esther share the same bedroom? Or am I wrong in that assumption?
1mo
TheAromaofBooks Waaaaaayy too casual about eating raw hamburger + raw egg 😂 1mo
ElizaMarie Buddy !!! #RunForYourLifeNurse !! Hopefully he doesn't seduce that poor nurse who he “falls in love“ with. I mean. poor girl to be sucked into him! I am #proud Ester put her foot down with that one! 1mo
julieclair @mcctrish Maybe the Lark Rose vibe was why Esther got on my last nerve in this chapter! 😂. But then I reached the end of the chapter and felt guilty about her getting on my nerves. She does need someone who can help her. I do hope the psychiatrist turns out to be a good one. But I'm fearful 1mo

Cuilin Perfect meme!! 😆 plus, I don‘t care for buddy, but seriously “a double life”. I know it was a different time. 2mo

BarkingMadRead @Cuilin for real. But also. Every time period had people having random sex, I always wonder why people are so shocked 🤣 especially when it‘s a guy (the old double standard) 🙄 2mo
Cuilin @BarkingMadRead I for real thought he was going to say the baby was his!! Now that‘s a double life. (edited) 2mo
BarkingMadRead @cuilin 🤣🤣🤣 2mo
Bookwormjillk I liked her more in this chapter. 2mo
dabbe I can't believe how many times I've laughed out loud at Plath's wit as shown through Esther. I'm sad as all hell, too, but laughter does come in the darkest of places sometimes. 2mo
mcctrish Esther really does give zero fucks 2mo
Clare-Dragonfly Plath twisted it around on me again! I think Esther‘s reaction is a bit over the top but I love that he gets TB so she doesn‘t have to deal with him 😂 2mo
ElizaMarie Love the description of his junk!!! How lackluster that was!!! Also- I had to assist in deliveries for nursing school — not a date activity at all!!!!! 2mo
tpixie @Clare-Dragonfly who knew how convenient TB could turn out to be! @Cuilin I was thinking the baby might be his, also! @ElizaMarie what a weird way to strip!! @BarkingMadRead not my kind of date! 2mo
tpixie @BarkingMadRead I‘m glad Ester said no to Buddy! 2mo

Cuilin I feel a little guilty knowing Mrs Macey‘s business. 🤫 as to Mr Phillip #ILoveTheSoundOfMyOwnVoice White, good for Laura saying thanks but no!!! 2mo
BarkingMadRead @Cuilin ahhhhhhh I totally left that out! That was so sad, and I liked it better thinking he was off traveling 2mo
willaful I was half-expecting you to use the “why are men?“ meme for this chapter. 😂 Thank goodness Laura didn't let herself get caught up in that! I wonder why she didn't stay at the post office though.... will we actually find out, or will it just end with her tombstone? 😂 2mo
KAO I was stunned that we actually got the mystery regarding Mrs. Macey‘s absent husband solved—but what a sad turn of events there! (edited) 2mo
KAO I‘m so relieved that Laura didn‘t settle for Philip White. No, thank you, but your egotism has been amusing anyway, Sir. 2mo
dabbe @willaful My lips are sealed. Until tomorrow. 😂 2mo
Bookwormjillk I finally finished this chapter, and it‘s close enough to midnight so I might as well finish the book. I had to chuckle when Laura pictured herself happy in the cottage but then realized Phillip would be there too #recordscratch 2mo

BarbaraJean The sneaking around with Don Juan was SO relatable. There are so many books I've read just because someone told me I shouldn't!! 2mo

Bookwormjillk Very relatable chapter for most of us I'm sure. 2mo
Cuilin I know I seem to be always asking questions, but has anybody seen Mr. Bates V the Post Office? Because I was screaming “don‘t sign it Laura!!!!“ I liked how she was learning Morse code for telegrams. That‘s pretty cool. 2mo
dabbe Miss Lane tried to enforce a banning of a book! Which of course made Laura want to read it. 😂 That's the positive way of looking at people who try to ban books from kids, right? 2mo
willaful I enjoyed the detail in this chapter.

A friend of mine moved to Switzerland, where a lot of services are still done by the post office, and he is very much a fan.
2mo
KAO Ah! Sneaking a book away to read in bed! That‘s our book-loving girl! 2mo
mcctrish @KAO my thoughts exactly 2mo

Clare-Dragonfly We finally get the story! Secret passages in the walls! 3mo
Bklover I am behind! My oldest daughter has been in the hospital and I haven‘t read a word in a week. I will catch up, I hope! (She will be fine) 3mo
TheAromaofBooks @Clare-Dragonfly - Apparently any and all ghosts are actually people in walls 😂 3mo
TheAromaofBooks @Bklover - Hope you daughter is doing better!!! 3mo
BarkingMadRead @TheAromaofBooks little did we know that this is actually a horror story 🤣 @Bklover I‘m so glad she will be ok, sending hugs! 3mo

kwmg40 I loved Teresa's snide comments about rich people! 😂 3mo
mcctrish I mean Theresa isn‘t wrong 3mo
Clare-Dragonfly I was really hoping Theresa would ask for an explanation, Emily would give one, and V would go “wait that‘s not accurate!” We only have a few chapters left, guys, get it together! 3mo

Bookwormjillk Blissfully short chapter. I really hope this isn‘t winding up to a Jane Eyre ending. 4mo
eeclayton #blessed Good riddance V! 4mo
TheAromaofBooks I just want Emily to be able to go back and home and live out her days in peace and solitude, but I think she's going to end up saddled with one of these losers for life 😂 4mo
julieclair I‘m proud of her for kicking V to the curb. I didn‘t think she had it in her. 4mo
Bklover @julieclair Neither did I! @TheAromaofBooks Don‘t you think she‘d be thrilled to just go home and find Theresa(isn‘t that her name?) and the two of them could hang out and she could write poetry all day! 4mo
TheAromaofBooks @Bklover - Yes!! And have a little dog?? (I just realized - what happened to the dog?? Did I miss its tragic end, or it did it just fade out of the story??) 4mo
BarkingMadRead @TheAromaofBooks that poor dog poof 💨 disappears it seems. Abandoned. 4mo
julieclair @TheAromaofBooks I totally forgot about the dog! 🤔 4mo

Clare-Dragonfly How did she even almost sign without reading?! She‘d spent all that time thinking about how she wasn‘t going to do what Macaroni said! 4mo
mcctrish I mean she can read why does she not read? But as @peanutnine said she has learned one lesson in all this crying and fainting. 4mo
TheBookHippie The picture is perfection!!!!! 4mo
Bookwormjillk I started reading this chapter about 5 hours ago and just woke up from one of the best naps of my life. I agree with everyone else- Emily read the papers! 4mo
TheAromaofBooks She'll read them, faint from horror about what's written on them, and then NEVER TELL US WHAT THEY SAID 😑 4mo
