BarkingMadRead
Mysteries of Udolpho | Ann Ward Radcliffe
TheAromaofBooks The whole situation with Macaroni felt anticlimactic after he was the villain for most of the book. 6d

BarkingMadRead @TheAromaofBooks for real! Like he was just a footnote 🤷🏻‍♀️ 6d
mcctrish That‘s was so much blather for nothing 6d
Bookwormjillk This is the kind of chapter that really makes me not like this book. Emily is about to get to the bottom of things but oh wait there‘s music 🙄 6d
Clare-Dragonfly All the hints about Emily looking like the marchioness! But she couldn‘t exactly have a secret kid, could she?! 6d
BarkingMadRead @Clare-Dragonfly I thought at first, until they started talking about her face turning black 🤮 so bizarre 6d
AllDebooks Anyone else losing count of all the Counts? 😅 6d
Clare-Dragonfly @BarkingMadRead I thought the same thing!!! 6d
mcctrish @AllDebooks too many counts to count (edited) 5d
AllDebooks @mcctrish far too many 😅 5d

Bookwormjillk I don‘t know if it‘s rational or not but I took against AC and in my mind he is St John from Jane Eyre. 1y
Clare-Dragonfly I am tentatively in favor of AC, since he seems to be a practical man who is getting over his prejudices. But the vaguely explained objection to the church reminds me of the dad from North and South, which is a point against him. 1y
Cuilin I‘m loving, how perspicacious and erudite Angel seems to be, but this is a Hardy novel and therefor it‘s all rather questionable. 1y
dabbe And this has nothing to do with anything, but seeing the lovely pic provided by @BarkingMadRead, I can't stop picturing Marius Pontmercy in 2012's movie LES MISERABLES. 🤣 1y

I could have sworn I reviewed this, but since I didn't... I really enjoyed the way this book was more than just a romance or a coming-out story. It was really an exploration of identity in multiple senses of the word. I also particularly liked how parent and family relationships were portrayed. More thoughts on the podcast! #EclecticReaders #playingcatchup #again

Crinoline_Laphroaig One of my favorite books I've read lately. 😍 7y
jmtrivera @missnavigation I really enjoyed it too! 7y

Magpie Murders | Anthony Horowitz
post image

In a mysterious mood so I bought two highly anticipated (by me) mysteries today. And now I can't seem to make up my mind. Neither can my cat, although I'm sure he thinks they both belong to him. Thoughts, Littens? #crowdsourcingmytbr #again #catsopinionsdontcount

Johanna414 Read the first chapter of each and keep going with whichever you can't put down 8y

Librarybelle I'm in the middle of Magpie Murders right now and am loving it. 8y

rubyslippersreads I think the cat is definitely choosing Magpie Murders, assuming it's a manual. 😸 8y
PatriciaU Ooh! I just bought Magpie too! Planning to read it this weekend. 8y
LiteraryinPA Selfishly I vote for you to read Magpie first so you can review it since it's one I think I want to read. ☺️ 8y
ferskner Magpie Murders! It's great! 8y
Laalaleighh @rubyslippersreads 😹😹😹 that's hilarious. 8y
NovelGirl82 I'm a huge Grisham fan, although I'm behind on my Grisham reading, so I'm sure that will be great. Magpie looks interesting! 8y
Laalaleighh @NovelGirl82 I started reading Grisham at 12 and couldn't stop. He's from my home state and alma mater! (And my alma maters rival for grad school ha) 8y
NovelGirl82 I was about the same age when I started reading him (I know it was mid school). My dad was a big Grisham reader, so I grabbed his copies & loved them! 8y
Laalaleighh @novelgirl82 I think Grisham books are a requirement in MS. My grandparents knew him so that might be why we had so many Haha. 8y
PatriciaU @Laalaleighh what did you think of this book? I finished the other night. Kind of mixed feelings about it. 8y
Laalaleighh @PatriciaU I'm about 4/5ths done with it right now. I'm loving it so far but very curious to see where it all ends up. Reading the letter from the sister at the moment! Will definitely let you know what I thought when I finish! 8y
NovelGirl82 Haha! Oh yeah! I'm originally from North LA, & I think my dad loved that he was a great southern author. I actually considered going to Ole Miss, but decided to keep with my legacy status at LA Tech. 8y
Laalaleighh @NovelGirl82 haha you didn't miss anything by skipping out on ole miss! (They're our sworn, bitter rivals) the campus is beautiful and the square is great but that's about the only good things there are to say about it. I can't tell you how many people I know transferred out of there. I considered it growing up too, but the first thing any student ever asked me during my first visit was "what does your daddy do"? like, before they asked my name (edited) 8y
NovelGirl82 They probably wouldn't have liked my answer- slumlord! 😂😂😂 I probably wouldn't have fit in with my parents business being owning low income housing (made a hell of a living at it, though!). No, I'm a proud Louisiana Tech Bulldog, just like that same dad. My first choice was Tulane. I got in, but couldn't afford it. So, do you still live in MS? 8y
Laalaleighh @NovelGirl82 haha. They would have just heard real estate developer tbh. I don't, I'm in Virginia now with my bf who's finishing up grad school and the we're off to D.C. for his job. We go back every now and then for weddings and such but we're both pretty happy to be somewhere new! 8y
NovelGirl82 We ended up moving to NM & I went to high school there. That's how I initially ended up in west TX. They're both quite a change from the deep south. Not necessarily an unpleasant one, when you don't hold to some of their more unpleasant ways of thinking. (Like my getting laughed at because I read all the time & am a "nerd", even though I'm more of an athlete than any of them) My whole family is still in LA, though. 8y
