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

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 😘

Butterfinger Aren't you the one who would post your mother's post-it-note reviews? I always thought it was precious. 1w
Texreader @Butterfinger Yes!! Good memory! I wish she‘d still do it. But she‘s still reading lots!! I‘m taking her books this weekend. 1w
KathyWheeler @Texreader I loved your mom‘s post-it-notes reviews! 1w

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!

Even while describing the worst of situations, Dickens‘ humor still shines through

Cuilin Dickens‘ wit is always present. I had to slow down as I knew I‘d finish before March so I think I‘m just going to read a chapter a day. 🤞 (edited) 2w
dabbe How long do we have for this one? Four months? 2w
Texreader @dabbe Chat is end of March. But take your time! It‘s a good one so far! 2w

Texreader @Cuilin I‘m aiming for at least 50% or more. I anticipate a lot of Ireland reads in March for FoodandLit 2w
dabbe I guess I thought it went until the end of May since LITTLE DORITT doesn't start until June. 🤷‍♀️ 2w
Cuilin @dabbe I wanted some breaks in between novels. I‘ll make another post to clear that up. 👍 2w
