Reia
Wuthering Heights | Emily Brontë
Pickpick

I adored every second of this book. The relationships between characters are so well fleshed out and intricate. The way in which it explored love, longing and anguish is incredible.

Wuthering Heights | Emily Brontë

“-existence, after loosing her, would be hell.
'Yet I was a fool to fancy for a moment that she valued Edgar Linton's attachment more than mine - If he loved with all the powers of his puny being, he couldn't love as much in eighty years, as I could in a day.“

"But as it is, you must not let your fancy run away with you. You have sense, and we all expect you to use it." - Chapter 26

#Pemberlittens of course I bought another copy of Pride and Prejudice this year. I've had my eye this Puffin in Bloom edition but waited for my Birthday to buy. ?

Substack tells me they will soon start to read Dracula in chronological order again.

1. It can't be a year already 😳
2. I should try again 😁

So, let's try!

Librarybelle I think this one was well constructed, had a sinister feel, and was a good overall mystery. 7mo
IndoorDame I loved it!!!!! But can you train snakes? And assuming you can, aren‘t there easier, less dangerous, ways to kill pesky family members or their unwanted fiancée‘s? 7mo
CrystalE02 I loved it!!!! I found it very interesting. 7mo

Daisey This is one of my favorites of the short stories. 7mo
dabbe @IndoorDame Good question! I know people do the cobra-dancing thing, but I don't know that the cobras are truly trained (since quite a few get bitten and even die in the process)--plus, snakes aren't mammals, and milk is like poison to them. 7mo
dabbe I'm willing to suspend my disbelief for an excellent detective story, however, if you have time for dying words, Julia, maybe you should avoid metaphors: “Oh, my God! Helen! It was the band! The speckled band!“ is nice and all, but in that same amount of time you could have said, “I was bitten by a damn snake! Here's the wound!“ Roylott would then have been in jail long ago. Just sayin'. 😀 I know--it might have been too quick to totally see. 😂 7mo
IndoorDame @dabbe you‘re so right! That was especially cryptic for last words 😂😂😂 7mo
kelli7990 I enjoyed this story. 7mo
CogsOfEncouragement A snake behaving this way is pretty crazy, but I suppose if an author invents a snake, an author can decide how it behaves and what it needs to survive. lol
I enjoyed this entertaining short story.

dabbe @CogsOfEncouragement That sounds like a great game, too: Invent-a-Snake! 🤩 7mo
Aimeesue Look, ACD, I‘ve HAD a pet snake and Jeffery did NOT drink milk. He was cute when he drank out of his water bowl though. He was not about to obey commands either. Maybe I could‘ve left him a trail of crickets leading up to my intended victim, I guess. Even then, it‘d be iffy. And he wouldn‘t have come back, that‘s for sure. 🐍 7mo
