Clare-Dragonfly @mcctrish Hahahaha, yes! After reading this you‘ll want to go to Cranford where the men all die! 12h

mcctrish @Clare-Dragonfly if only we‘d read this one first, we‘d have felt so justified with every death in Cranford 12h

ElizaMarie I can't with Cynthia- ugh!!! She is the worst 10h

Bklover You‘re correct! There really isn‘t a man in this book who isn‘t a bit thick in the head. @mcctrish 6h

mcctrish Well that was eye opening for Mr Gibson #atlast #notarealclare and Cynthia #worstchristiannameever 😆😆 according to Squire are both in a snit because their conniving is falling flat! Does Cynthia want to keep it a secret in general ( to catch bigger fish) or is this Preston related do you think? 3d

AllDebooks I think it's completely Preston related. 3d

See All 17 Comments

Cuilin “I‘m not saying she was silly, but one of us was silly, and it wasn‘t me” 😆 I think Cynthia is hiding her “engagement” from Preston. But why? 3d

Bookwormjillk @Cuilin I loved that part 😂😂😂 3d

Ruthiella I think it is Preston related as well. There‘s something going on there that both Cynthia and Mrs. Gibson are trying to hide. 3d

dabbe @Ruthiella 🎯🎯🎯! I'm thinking if Osborne can secretly be married, so could Cynthia and Preston! Or he's blackmailing her somehow. Didn't she check her money once and was worried about not having enough? 3d

dabbe This is the BEST PIC for this chapter! 😂😂😂 3d

Bklover @dabbe Yes! 🎯 3d

Ruthiella @dabbe Exactly! Something is up! 3d

willaful @dabbe oooo, maybe!

I wonder what Mrs. G would be diagnosed with these days? Narcissism? Is she a sociopath? Other people's feelings mean diddly to her.

It would be nice if Mr. G made use of his new info about his wife to take better care of his poor daughter instead of just being irritable! 3d

ElizaMarie @willaful I would say she is a narcissist 3d

dabbe @willaful 🎯🎯🎯! 3d

Lcsmcat @dabbe @willaful I think Preston is blackmailing her for something. Just not sure what yet. 3d

dabbe @Lcsmcat 🎯🩵🎯 2d

julieclair I agree about the blackmail. But the thought of a secret marriage is intriguing! @Lcsmcat @dabbe 1d

dabbe @julieclair IKR? 😍 1d

Cuilin Oh sweet poor Molly. 💔 Also a lot can happen in two years!! (edited) 4d

Bookwormjillk Poor Molly. Even if Cynthia doesn‘t marry him he‘s ruined for her now. 4d

mcctrish How are we getting out of this?! Argh I can‘t stand #notarealclare and by extension Cynthia 4d

ElizaMarie “even you must acknowledge he's very plain and awkward; and I like pretty things and pretty people." —- she brutal 4d

dabbe Cynthia is reminding me more and more of Estella from GREAT EX. And I want to hit Roger over the head to wake him up to what goodness is right in front of him. 😩 4d

willaful @ElizaMarie Points for honesty I guess? 🙄

I was saddened by Molly's feelings about her father, and about how hard it is to live with someone you know is dishonest. All of her most important values -- love, loyalty, integrity -- are being stomped on constantly by this woman and her father just aims for a peaceful life. It's a bit of a Cinderella story except with no way for anyone else to see it if they don't want to. 4d

julieclair I‘m hoping Roger will come to his senses in the jungles of South America, and realize he has truly loved Molly all along. Then comes home, dumps Cynthia, and convinces Molly of his true love for her. 4d

rubyslippersreads Cynthia says, “someone else may turn up, and say I‘m engaged to him.” Preston? 4d

Bookwormjillk @julieclair and inherits all the money 4d

Bklover @rubyslippersreads Oooh, I hadn‘t thought of that! I‘m wondering if Preston and Cynthia may just deserve each other. (Unless he turns out to be a serial killer!). 4d

willaful @julieclair He wouldn't though. 🙄 He'd be too honorable to break it off. 3d

julieclair @willaful Darn. You're right. Cynthia will have to dump him. 3d

julieclair @Bookwormjillk Yes! The money would make it even more perfect! 3d

willaful I KNEW IT! About why NotClare her mind about Roger. She is so gross! 5d

Cuilin This book is so good. My mind is going in so many different directions. But what if…. And then…, and therefore…that would mean …. Fabulous!! 5d

See All 20 Comments

willaful NotClare absolutely deserves to marry Cynthia off to Roger and then be upstaged by Osborne's heir. Except that would be too cruel to Roger. I hope he gets over this infatuation. 5d

mcctrish @willaful I hope #notarealclare marries Cynthia off in the next 2 years #rogerhastomarryformoney 5d

dabbe I'm still in the hopeful Molly + Roger camp. 🤞🏻 5d

Bookwormjillk Doc handled the squire perfectly. That‘s the kind of thing I would only think to say hours later when I was fuming in bed unable to sleep. 5d

Butterfinger I adore Jonathan Bailey. 5d

Clare-Dragonfly Yikes. I hope Mr. Gibson is wrong about Osborne‘s illness. After all, he doesn‘t have the full picture. 5d

mcctrish @Clare-Dragonfly if Osborne is sick Roger needs to make sure all the paperwork is legit re:the marriage 5d

rubyslippersreads @Butterfinger Me too. This picture certainly brightened up my day. 😁 5d

BarkingMadRead @Butterfinger @rubyslippersreads I‘m obsessed, he was really good in Jurassic world, so fun to watch 5d

Lcsmcat @dabbe Me too! Cynthia would not make anyone happy ultimately. She‘s too shallow. 4d

willaful @dabbe Oh absolutely! That would be the happy ending. But I also don't want him to marry Cynthia, because she's not capable of making him happy. 4d

dabbe @Lcsmcat 🎯🩵🎯 4d

dabbe @willaful 🩵🎯🩵 4d

Clare-Dragonfly @mcctrish But Roger has just gone off on his new dangerous job… 😬 4d

mcctrish @Clare-Dragonfly I know! Did he have time ? If Roger is Jonathon Bailey, and I sure hope he is despite the squire‘s descriptions of him, he needs to stay safe and come home and marry Molly 4d

ElizaMarie @Bookwormjillk :) I like to relive convos in the shower 🚿 4d

julieclair I am definitely on Team Molly + Roger! 4d

Long, but very well written, with well-developed characters and relationships that have depth. But the ending…ugh… frustrating. Thanks to the always-fun #HashtagBrigade for giving me the impetus to keep reading!

willaful I loved this line: “if this ungenerous though of Osborne's had been set clearly before his conscience, he would have smote his breast and cried 'Mea culpa' with the best of them; it was only that he was too indolent to keep an unassisted conscience.“ 6d

julieclair I feel like I‘m saying #poormolly in every chapter. I just want to reach through the pages and give her a hug! And give everyone else a good talking to. 6d

dabbe And the fact that Molly wants Roger to be happy--even at the expense of her happiness-- just gets me. 😩 Harriet sees what a gem she is. I cling to that. 6d

Clare-Dragonfly OSBORNE. 6d

Lcsmcat @willaful “unassisted conscience” isa great phrase! 6d

willaful @dabbe Harriet seems very perceptive, except she seems to accept #NotARealClare at face value... 6d

ElizaMarie @julieclair and @dabbe Molly is too good for all of them! 5d

julieclair @ElizaMarie 🎯 5d

Bklover @dabbe Those are my thoughts exactly. I think Cynthia sees Molly too. Cynthia just seems to be rather broken. 5d

dabbe @Bklover Agree 💯. 5d

AllDebooks @Lcsmcat no surprises there! Scheming minx 7d

mcctrish Roger is just doomed - only has fellowship if he doesn‘t marry but still courts Cynthia and gives all of his money to O. #hambleyofhambley has got a real thorn in his side with the French 🎶I was defeated, you won the war🎶 why can‘t he be a gracious winner ?
