Ruthiella Love the hashtag “learning more than French”!😂 I‘ve not read Villette but the description of “ugly and with something of a wild animal about him” could also have been a model for Rochester….?🤔 2y

BarkingMadRead @ruthiella I thought the same. And now I obviously need to read Villette 2y
Ruthiella @BarkingMadRun me too! 2y
Daisey @Ruthiella This chapter had me thinking the same thing about Rochester and needing to read Villette. I‘m hoping it will be a PemberLittens choice at some point. 2y
TheBookHippie @Daisey me too! I‘d love a reread. 2y
DebinHawaii @Ruthiella @BarkingMadRun @Daisey @TheBookHippie I‘ve never read Villette & would love to read it with the #PemberLittens 🤗 2y
suvata This chapter was a little bit depressing. It left me thinking that Charlotte was not a very happy person. And, yes, I need to read Villette too. 2y
batsy I love Villette and heartily recommend it! It's sadder than Jane Eyre and less gothic, but it's Charlotte's best book imo. I enjoyed learning about Mary in this chapter; the little bits we got to know suggests an intriguing character. "She had also begun studying algebra, which she liked because 'it is odd in a woman to learn it, and I like to establish my right to be doing odd things.'" Love that! 2y
