mcctrish I laughed out loud twice during #countporkchop ‘s side of the story with his insertions about how awesome he is 🤣🤣 but cringed at how much he looovvvveeddd Marian ( but it saved her so yay Marian) every time someone describes him I hear in the back of my mind “how fat was he?” like part of a running joke 6d
Bookwormjillk Honestly I would read a whole book told from the POV of Uncle and Count. They‘re awful but so funny. And he wasn‘t wrong about Marian. 6d
BarkingMadRead @Clare-Dragonfly for real! I laughed the whole time. @mcctrish I could only use drawings of him, the actors they used were never fat enough 🤷🏻‍♀️ 6d
Bklover The illustration is perfect!😂😂 6d
BarbaraJean @Bklover The illustration is absolutely perfect, in no small part because at first I interpreted the right hand as a foot and his belly as the leg attached to that “foot,“ and the ridiculousness of that pose + the ridiculousness of seeing my error had me cackling 😂 😂 Also: does he have smoke coming out of his ear?!? What is happening?! 6d
BarkingMadRead @BarbaraJean omg I never noticed that smoke, wtf?!? 6d
ElizaMarie @BarbaraJean The SMOKE!!! Ha maybe its a “he is full of hot air“ type of reference. 5d

repost for @BarkingMadRead:

God forbid he uses actual chapters to make our lives easy 🙄 #thisfreakingguy #anyway take a look at how I divided it up and let me know if it doesn‘t work. I can spread out some of the longer sections an extra day. For the multiple day chapters… they are divided into sections, so the numbers at the end are how many sections each day. Hope this makes sense. Drop your thought below #hashtagbrigade we start Saturday

Wilkie Freakin Collins. God forbid he uses actual chapters to make our lives easy 🙄 #thisfreakingguy #anyway take a look at how I divided it up and let me know if this doesn‘t work. I can always spread out some of the longer sections an extra day. For the multiple day chapters… they are divided into sections, so the numbers at the end are how many sections each day. Hope this makes sense. Drop your thought below #hashtagbrigade we start Saturday

Bookwormjillk How dare you Wilkie. 4w
Librarybelle Wilkie was a strange guy. I‘m happy to go with the consensus of the group. 4w

Ruthiella Wilkie took a lot of opium. Give him a break. 😂 4w
Bookwormjillk @Ruthiella well that bodes well 😂 4w
julieclair I think you‘ve done a brilliant job trying to wrangle dear Wilkie‘s opium-induced non-chapterism into submission! 👍🤪😂 4w
Bklover I actually followed the plan (I think!). Sounds good to me. Oh, and maybe the opium will make this interesting! 4w
KathyWheeler Can I be added to this event? I‘ve owned this book for years and would like to get motivated to actually read it! 4w
kwmg40 Looks good. I'll try to follow as best I can! 4w
TheAromaofBooks Looks great!! Sooo complicated when a book doesn't have just regular chapters!! 4w
Clare-Dragonfly Eep! I‘ll do my best to keep up! 😅 4w
KAO I don‘t really follow. “March 2-4 5 per day”? Isn‘t this 96 pages for the first section divided by 3 days=32 pages per day? What does “5 per day” mean? Edited: Oh!! This must mean five parts labeled with Roman numerals! I see now. (edited) 4w
KAO I‘m not so sure I‘ll keep up with the rest of the books I have going! I‘ll give it a shot though. 4w
BarkingMadRead @kao that chapter is split into sections, so it‘s 5 sections of that chapter per day. If I split it into pages, it might have us stopping mid- mini chapter. There are 15 mini chapters (edited) 4w
CatLass007 Well thank goodness the free Audible copy has the same table of contents. 4w
BarkingMadRead @catlass007 I had real stress that the different copies would be set up different 🤣#freakingwilkie (edited) 4w
BarbaraJean This looks good to me! Thank you for divvying up all of Wilkie‘s eclectic “chapters” for us! Of course, I still have to check the TOC in my library ebook copy… because I could have SWORN I owned a copy but it is nowhere to be found. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 3w
KAO @BarkingMadRead I get it now! I just finished reading sections 1-5 of the first part this morning. I‘m enjoying it so far! 3w
BarkingMadRead @kao yayyyyyyy 3w
Clare-Dragonfly Are we starting today (Saturday, March 1) or tomorrow (March 2)? 😅 3w
BarkingMadRead @Clare-Dragonfly ohhhhhh I said tomorrow, so we are starting tomorrow 🙈 sorry y‘all! 3w

Librarybelle He‘s such a jerk and has triggered all of my emotions about controlling men and stalkers. Ugh. 7mo
Ruthiella @TheBookHippie That‘s how I felt about Tess of the D‘Urbervilles too! WHOOSH! 😡 7mo
mcctrish @TheBookHippie @Librarybelle @Ruthiella when he threatened Ruth to meet with him because Leonard‘s well being depended on it and then he got Bradshaw to take him round to see Leonard OMG 😱 (edited) 7mo
Librarybelle @mcctrish I know! He‘s the worst! 7mo
IndoorDame Who knew it was possible for Bellingshit to continue to drop in my estimation 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 7mo
TheBookHippie @mcctrish RIGHT?!?! OMG 7mo
TheBookHippie @IndoorDame 🤬🤬🤬 7mo
tpixie Pretty 💜💜💜 7mo
mcctrish @IndoorDame RIGHT?! What has happened that he‘s gone from being self centred, spoiled, and thoughtless to cruel and vindictive 7mo
Cuilin @Librarybelle yes!! I feel triggered. He is despicable. 7mo
Aimeesue Sleeze. Bag. Capital SLEEZE. 7mo
Clare-Dragonfly I love—in an angry way—how Bellingshit tried to bribe Leonard into liking him and Benson took it as an attempt to buy his vote. It probably never even occurred to Bellingshit that you could buy a man‘s vote by giving a gift to someone he cared about! 7mo
Bookwormjillk I just caught up. Oh wow. So much to say about that man. Clueless and threatening all at once. 7mo
James263 Hi 7mo
jewright Damsons do make the best jelly ever!!! We had a tree when I was a kid. I was hoping he would have grown up a little, but he‘s still terrible. It‘s almost like he knew she would be pregnant, but he thought she might have died. He‘s almost surprised to see her alive and thriving. 7mo
dabbe @mcctrish Well, he now has a SON. Nevermind that he's so far illegitimate ... now he'll want HIS son and might take him away from Ruth. I. Can't. Even. #steamsnortingmad 😤😤😤 7mo
mcctrish @dabbe it‘s like @IndoorDame said, my mind is blown that Bellingshit is even worse than before 🤯 but I am curious why the name change ? 7mo
mcctrish @jewright right? He left her, after he ruined her, how could she have not perished or become a whore on the street ? 7mo
julieclair @mcctrish Ditto about the name change. What‘s up with that? 7mo
julieclair I so admire Ruth‘s strength and self control. 7mo
mcctrish @julieclair probably did some shady shit and needed a new identity 7mo
julieclair @mcctrish That makes total, slimy sense. 7mo
