mcctrish So we are just supposed to forgive Valancourt‘s whoring around?! #boyswillbeboys? Just ugh! The Victorian novelist kills women for less 😡 3d

BarkingMadRead @mcctrish so frustrating! 3d

Bookwormjillk @mcctrish I do think the whole point of this book will be we‘re supposed to forgive Val and be happy for Em when she ends up with him. 2d

mcctrish @Bookwormjillk better a loser than being alone #amiright 2d

Bookwormjillk @mcctrish #youareright 2d

Clare-Dragonfly @mcctrish You‘d think she would have learned from her aunt that a loser is NOT better than being alone! 2d

Clare-Dragonfly Raise your hand if you didn‘t know it was Valancourt helping Theresa the moment she said she couldn‘t say who it was 🤛🏻 2d

BarkingMadRead @Clare-Dragonfly I was torn between him and the creeper, it could have gone either way I guess 🤣 I also half wonder if it was the creeper that got shot as well 🤣 2d

mcctrish @Clare-Dragonfly you‘d think 🤔 😝 2d

mcctrish Ooo @BarkingMadRead maybe the creeper was shot saving Val once again 2d

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 3w

mcctrish @AllDebooks so much unnecessary language 3w

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. 4w

mcctrish @Bookwormjillk so much omelette angst 4mo

julieclair Poor Miss Pym arrived late and lost her chance at an omelette. She had to eat macaroni from the staff lunch. Such a shame. 😂 I wonder what Mrs. Kerr will have to eat - she arrived even later than Pym! 😬 4mo

TheBookHippie @Ruthiella ohhhhh yes. Good pick. 4mo

Bookwormjillk Did Baby B get her sick or is she just heart broken? I guess we'll find out. 4mo

TheBookHippie #cannotfindmybook #tothelibraryigo 9mo

Ruthiella Very short but not too bad for a dream sequence. I‘m a little nervous about Jasper the dog. I don‘t remember him. 😬 9mo

Crinoline_Laphroaig Such a great opening line. 9mo

BarkingMadRead @Ruthiella I don‘t remember! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 @Crinoline_Laphroaig I love it! @TheBookHippie oh nooooo 9mo

willaful @Ruthiella I don't remember either but according to this spoiler website. it's okay. (Click at your own risk!) https://www.doesthedogdie.com/media/20561?index1=-1&index2=-1 9mo

TheBookHippie @BarkingMadRead library has it just need to get it to my branch so I should be able to catch up. Supposed to be in by Friday 😅 9mo

IndoorDame Apparently Manderley is based on a house she saw and fell in love with called Menabilly (you can find stunning photos online) and according to what I‘ve read the dream in this chapter could just as easily foreshadow her actual journey with the house, all of which happened after she wrote and published the book. 9mo

Clare-Dragonfly This is gorgeously written! I haven‘t read this before so it‘s all new to me, and I‘m glad to be finally reading it. 9mo

Graciouswarriorprincess Thanks @BarkingMadRead 😀 9mo

Ruthiella @Clare-Dragonfly Awesome you are reading it for the first time! It‘s a great plot. 9mo

Ruthiella @willaful Thank you! 😊 9mo

Bookwormjillk Woohoo new book! I only have the audio version in my library so I‘m reading it that way. 9mo

dabbe @IndoorDame I read too that she was given a lease by the owner at the time, spent money renovating it, and lived there for 20 years before giving it back to the family. I never knew this, and the last time I read it was in the early 1990s before the Internet. Thank goodness for instant knowledge! 🤩 9mo

dabbe The passage where the narrator talks about the wind coming from the western sea reminded me of Cornwall and the island off of it that is prevalent in AND THEN THERE WERE NONE ... and also P.B. Shelley's “Ode to the West Wind.“ Oh, what a tremendous novel embracing Gothic and Romantic literature from the early 1800s. I'm in heaven! #byebyebadbros 🤩 9mo

5feet.of.fury Add me please 😊 9mo

TheAromaofBooks LOVE how atmospheric this chapter is!! 9mo

IndoorDame @dabbe couldn‘t agree more on both counts! #hailtheinternet #byebyebadbros 9mo

KAO I am excited to start something new! Optimistic here! 9mo

dabbe @IndoorDame 💚🩷💚 9mo

peanutnine This is my first time reading and I'm loving the descriptions so far! 9mo

Roary47 @Clare-Dragonfly I completely agree it is so beautiful already! I‘m also a first time reader with you and @peanutnine it will be fun reading with all of you. 🥰💛 9mo

julieclair Please add me! I was too intimidated to attempt the bros, but now I'm back in the brigade! 9mo

julieclair @IndoorDame Thanks for this great info about Menabilly! My husband and I will be touring Cornwall next month. I wonder if it's visible from the road? 9mo

IndoorDame @julieclair oooh, definitely let us know if it is!!! 9mo

BarkingMadRead @julieclair added you! 9mo

julieclair @IndoorDame Will do! 9mo

Cuilin I‘m so behind, still playing catch up. 10mo

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 10mo
