"It is only my foolish fancy, mamma, said Kate, forcing a smile.
“Well, then, my love, I wish you would keep your foolish fancy to yourself, and not wake up *my* foolish fancy to keep it company,” retorted Mrs Nickleby.

Has anyone ever laughed so hard?
Only Dickens… I‘m loving this book so much. All my others have gone by the wayside.

Absolutely loving this book so I checked to see if there were a movie. Being able to watch it “free” on Prime expires in 8 days!! Thought I‘d give everyone a heads up. That means I have about 8 days to finish 15 hours if I want to finish the book before watching the movie, which of course I do. So we will see if I can manage it. The trailer for the movie looks so good and it‘s well cast. #whatthedickens @Cuilin
These are my current long reads, and I‘m enjoying each of them in their own way.
I got a lot from my previous read of #Genji, so I thought I would reread for the #Reading1001 yearlong read this year by listening to the Washburn translation. It‘s interesting how I‘ve forgotten so many details, but then hear sections that immediately seem so familiar.

Anyone else like or have a mother like Kate‘s mom, making her be ready for her appointment 1-1/2 hours early? 🤣🤣
Wink wink Mom @Doll8455 😘

There was some confusion. Apologies for lack of clarity. Hope this clears it up ⬆️ Let @Cuilin know if you have any questions.
Mr Gregsbury the politician doesn‘t think authors are entitled to be paid for their works! Ha! Dickens jesting by pointing a finger at himself!

Spite, the word even sounds malicious.
Nothing like holding our elected officials‘ feet to the fire?
I can just picture Dickens chortling to himself as he wrote about the electorate bringing grievances to this member of parliament
I won‘t post it, but the last question to “sir” is the funniest!
