BarkingMadRead @DGRachel thanks lol @ErinSueMreads I was thinking the same thing! 2y
DebinHawaii Yes! Most excellent ###! 🤣 St. John is such a fun guy! 🙄 2y
BarkingMadRead @DebinHawaii he‘s a real peach 🤣 2y
i.besteph I didn‘t finish reading this chapter yet! But reading the Christmas scene felt like I was in it. I‘m excited for Christmas! 🥳🥳 2y
TheAromaofBooks Until this chapter, St John hasn't really bothered me... like not my kind of guy, but I can respect his focus and commitment. But the way he just absolutely won't let anyone have a good time and then tries to manipulate Jane by bashing her on the head with “I know what God wants you to do better than you do“ - ICK. I also was frustrated with Jane more in this chapter than I have been in the entire book. Why does she keep doing whatever he says?! 2y
BarkingMadRead @TheAromaofBooks yes!! She always stood up to Rochester, why is she being like this now?!! 2y
Clare-Dragonfly This chapter was my favorite the first time I read it and it‘s my favorite all over again now!!! I LOVE how well Jane knows herself and what she needs and wants, and how well she articulated it, even as St. John refuses to hear her. I love that she takes marriage much more seriously than he seems to, and defends her ability to be a missionary as a woman. And I love that St. John is a man who doesn‘t get what he wants even though he is a man and 2y
Clare-Dragonfly wants it (clearly he thinks that should be enough) and even invokes God!!! HE‘S SUCH AN ASS AND HE GETS THE NO HE DESERVES (edited) 2y
Bookwormjillk If you say no to me you are also saying no to God 🤢 2y
lauraisntwilder Why are all Jane's potential husbands so manipulative? Dressing up like fortune tellers, pretending to be engaged, testing her missionary skills in secret with various tasks, invoking God... Yikes. 2y
Erinsuereads Also her cousin @lauraisntwilder 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 2y
lauraisntwilder @ErinSueMreads Yes! That too! 😳 2y
LitStephanie @Bookwormjillk he is such a self righteous DB. 2y
