Bookwormjillk Mine is a boring kindle edition. This chapter seemed almost dystopian. All of our men disappear and we practice elegant economy. A cow in flannel though. I‘m here for it. 2y
mcctrish I‘m reading on the serial app again 🎶#tellmewherehaveallthegoodmengone #theyaregoneforgood 🎶 2y

Ruthiella I‘m totally going to have trouble not reading ahead in this one. I love it so far! ❤️ 2y
Sapphire I have the free cloud library edition. You guys are hysterical. 2y
TheAromaofBooks Does your cover have... green beans?? I can't WAIT to find out how they fit into the plot, especially if it's important enough that they are the cover pattern! 😂 I did NOT enjoy North & South, so I bought a cheap paperback copy of Cranford. But I enjoyed the first chapter of this one more than I liked the entirety of N&S so hopefully this one is an unexpected win after all! 2y
BarkingMadRead @Ruthiella the sass is so strong in this one! @TheAromaofBooks it‘s so random, I‘m intrigued. You would think cows in clothes would be a better cover 🤷🏻♀️ 2y
Ruthiella @TheAromaofBooks I didn‘t like North and South either. But Cranford is delightful so far. Don‘t tell @BarkingMadRead , but I‘ve already read up to chapter six! No green beans so far! (edited) 2y
BarkingMadRead @Ruthiella 🤣🤣🤣 #howdareyou 2y
Ruthiella @BarkingMadRead #Icouldnothelpmyself 😂😂😂 2y
Morr_Books I have a Collins Classic edition that I got oversees. "A man is so in the way in the house!" I have said that about my husband on a few occasions. He manages to be everywhere all at once without being helpful. ? 2y
Daisey I agree that this first chapter was a fun read. I‘ve been around some cows that were almost pets, but never any in clothes! 😂 2y
Allylu I ordered my copy through the library and I think I will have it tomorrow, so in the meantime I am reading it on my Kindle. This first chapter was such fun! 2y
DebinHawaii Can you add me to the tags, please? I am just doing the Kindle free version for now. 2y
BarkingMadRead @DebinHawaii I‘ll add you! 2y
dabbe I'm reading the Dover Thrift Edition. I'm enjoying this so far. It feels Twain-like to me. I had to remind myself that were not in the southern US, listening to “The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County,“ but in England, reading “The Nude-Flanneled Cow living in Cranky Cranford.“ 😃 2y
BarkingMadRead @dabbe 🐄🐄🐄 2y
Crinoline_Laphroaig You've got the Pretty book! 2y
Bklover Omg it‘s May!!! I‘ll catch up tomorrow I promise!! 2y
eeclayton I too am reading a basic kindle copy. If you ask me, there's not enough green beans in literature 😂 2y
Clare-Dragonfly This is absolutely delightful so far! It reminds me of L. M. Montgomery, especially Miss Jessie. I too am reading a very basic Kindle version from the Gutenberg Project. 2y
BarkingMadRead @eeclayton I can‘t wait to find out what makes the beans relevant 🤣🤣🤣 2y
TheAromaofBooks @Ruthiella @BarkingMadRead @eeclayton - Upon closer study they MAY be peas, not beans. Hopefully time will tell!! 😂 😂 😂 2y
rubyslippersreads Could you please add me to the tags? I‘ll be reading on Kindle. I thought I had one among my Folio Gaskells, but alas not. 2y
