BarkingMadRead @Bklover it‘s so easy to do! I‘m in Disney this weekend so I‘m reading for Saturday and Sunday right now 🤣 5d
kspenmoll Can you had me to your tag list? Just found this in a pile…! I will catch up! 5d
BarkingMadRead @kspenmoll absolutely! It will be easy to catch up, the chapters are so short! 5d
Bklover Oh have a great time!! 5d
BarkingMadRead @Bklover thank you!! 5d
Bookwormjillk I don‘t know if this has been made into a movie but I can picture it as one. 5d
Ruthiella @Bklover I am reading ahead too! On chapter 9. 😂 5d
Ruthiella @mcctrish I wonder if it really was the uncle? Like maybe it is an imposter? And the mask was to hide it? 🤔 (edited) 5d
willaful @Ruthiella makes sense. So that's probably not it. 😂 5d
Ruthiella @willaful 😂😂😂 5d
Crinoline_Laphroaig I'm catching up! 5d
kspenmoll @Bklover The same happened ti me. I was so involved I forgot & read thru ch 8 before I realized I was ahead! 5d
mcctrish @Ruthiella that makes sense - there is more than one level of deception going on 5d
rubyslippersreads The Phantom is the first thing I thought of. 4d

Bookwormjillk 10 chapters left! 12mo
BarkingMadRead @peanutnine #obviously 🤷🏻‍♀️ this is usually the point where I would binge read the end, but I feel like I still wouldn‘t know anything, so why bother 🤣 @Bookwormjillk #hallelujah 12mo
TheAromaofBooks I gotta be honest, I freaking love Annette and her complete inability to keep a secret 😂 12mo
BarkingMadRead @TheAromaofBooks without Annette, we wouldn‘t know a damn thing 🤣 12mo
Clare-Dragonfly There doesn‘t seem to be much acknowledgement that Annette‘s husband has disappeared! 12mo
Clare-Dragonfly Linguistic note: I see that Annette has switched from calling Emily “mamselle” to “madam”! This matches up with something I noted in the book I just finished—in English, Mrs was for a long time just a title of respect for an adult woman of a certain class, even if she wasn‘t married. The Mrs versus Miss for marital status distinction wasn‘t solidified until the mid-19th century. Emily is probably Madam now that she‘s inherited. (edited) 12mo
BarkingMadRead @Clare-Dragonfly ohhhhh that‘s interesting! And poor Ludo ☠️ 12mo
mcctrish #obviously 👏🏻👏🏻🤣 12mo

Bookwormjillk Blissfully short chapter. I really hope this isn‘t winding up to a Jane Eyre ending. 12mo
eeclayton #blessed Good riddance V! 12mo
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 😂 12mo
julieclair I‘m proud of her for kicking V to the curb. I didn‘t think she had it in her. 12mo
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! 12mo
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??) 12mo
BarkingMadRead @TheAromaofBooks that poor dog poof 💨 disappears it seems. Abandoned. 12mo
julieclair @TheAromaofBooks I totally forgot about the dog! 🤔 12mo

mcctrish @Bookwormjillk 🤣🤣🤣 12mo
mcctrish I laughed out loud learning that the Count‘s revenge fantasy was fuelled by intel gleaned from Annette‘s “thoughtless prattle” anyone who can follow her circuitous rambling and concoct a plan deserves to succeed 12mo
mcctrish @AllDebooks so much unnecessary language 12mo

mcctrish Honest to god I can‘t believe Emily actually managed to get Annette out! So much dithering! Why on earth did she not go find Carlos to start?! Ludicrous lives 🎉because nobody dies. They just cry 13mo

Bookwormjillk 49% through though. #We‘reGettingThere #MaybeSomethingWillHappenSoon 13mo
Clare-Dragonfly Very confusing, is L dead or not? And also is he a good guy or a complete asshole? Because if somebody needs to stay in a room to protect themselves, seems to me the thing to do is leave THEM the key, not take it away and go join the fighting. 13mo
Bookwormjillk @Clare-Dragonfly woo 🎉🎉🎉 13mo

Bookwormjillk We needed a short chapter today. 2y
currentlyreadinginCO She loves having almost been murdered!! 😂😂 2y
dabbe Is it horrible of me that when I go to read a chapter, I quickly figure out how many pages it is, and then I (almost) jump for joy when it less than 10? 🤩 2y
Cuilin I‘m so behind, still playing catch up. 2y
mcctrish @dabbe we are twins 🤣 I start every reading by looking ahead at how many pages a-thinking “yes” #lessthan10 or “groan” #toomany I am seriously ‘a-doubting and a-feared‘ this book will ever end 2y
BarkingMadRead @dabbe @mcctrish for real! 🙄 @Cuilin there are some shorter chapters ahead! You can do it!! 2y
dabbe @mcctrish #greatminds 🤩😂😍 2y
5feet.of.fury I told myself I either have to catch up this weekend or throw in the towel, this is where I am now. 2y
BarkingMadRead @5feet.of.fury you can do it!! 2y
5feet.of.fury @BarkingMadRead the comments seem like people are getting more into it, it‘s helping me rally. For a while we all seemed to be just suffering together lmao 2y
BarkingMadRead @5feet.of.fury the last section has been so much easier to read! It‘s crazy 😜 2y

Clare-Dragonfly Thanks for the visual! I thought this chapter was hilarious. They‘re all so pretentious 😂 3y
Morr_Books @Clare-Dragonfly I agree! This chapter is hilarious! I was laughing right at the beginning when it was mentioned how much they disliked the doctor's name, Hoggins, but that Piggins would have been worse. 🤣 3y
Ruthiella The chapter really does underscore the absurdity of class hierarchies! 😂 Certainly Mrs. Jamison enjoys being a big fish in a very small pond. And of course they ate up all the food not because they were hungry but because they were “too genteel” to point out how low class the spread was by abstaining. (edited) 3y
Clare-Dragonfly I feel like the narrator is telling us all this in a sly whisper out of the corner of her mouth. And she occasionally bursts into giggles because she just can‘t help herself. That‘s why there are so many funerals—so she isn‘t constantly laughing. 3y
TheAromaofBooks I was also confused about the sedan chair being in the house! I always assumed they picked people up outside like a cab?? But apparently not! 😂 3y
Bookwormjillk i also do not approve of capital letters ff 3y
dabbe @Ruthiella a big “snoring“ fish ... 🤣🤣🤣 3y
dabbe I just spit out what I was drinking reading through all of this: y'all were funnier than this chapter, and that's saying something! Starting with you @BarkingMadRead ... #welldone 🙌🤩💚 3y
