Clare-Dragonfly Kind of unsatisfying that Emily doesn‘t have to do anything to get her inheritance… 2d

Bookwormjillk @Clare-Dragonfly right? All that paperwork with Macaroni for nothing. 2d

peanutnine I feel like most everything in this book has been a ton of anticipation and buildup with no satisfying pay out @Clare-Dragonfly @Bookwormjillk 1d

mcctrish @peanutnine absolutely so many words and nothing happens besides crying, fainting and things that can‘t be talked about 1d

Clare-Dragonfly @peanutnine Yup. That‘s why I‘m not expecting any exciting ghost reveal with Ludo. 1d

BarkingMadRead @Ruthiella those are all her tears in that picture 🤣🤣🤣 2w

Ruthiella @BarkingMadRead 🤣🤣🤣 2w

ElizaMarie I'm behind but I'm gonna catch up tomorrow. Now I know where I should end up!!! 2w

mcctrish @Ruthiella she is now exhausted by her tears so maybe we can catch a break ( I didn‘t even realize she was crying. Again. ) 2w

Clare-Dragonfly Macaroni obviously isn‘t going to kill her, because he wouldn‘t inherit her estates (I presume her closest living relative would, and that‘s the mom‘s brother, whom it would be a lot harder to get the property from). But this seems like a lovely place so I‘m suspicious of the niceness. 2w

Bklover To me this book feels so much like it was written by a man! All the fainting and crying and weak women. And I mean a man back in that time. (edited) 2w

Bookwormjillk So weird. Glad she made a friend though. Random sea nymph poem inserted here. 2w

julieclair I‘m glad I don‘t have to “analyze” this book for an English class. I don‘t know what I‘d do about that sea nymph song! 😂 Which, by the way, was sung in the audio version and was completely tuneless!But at least Emily has made a friend. 2w

Clare-Dragonfly Barnardine is a total jerk! Oh, I will strongly imply I killed her aunt and then get horribly offended when she thinks I killed her aunt. 🙄🙄🙄 3w

BarkingMadRead @Clare-Dragonfly the most bizarre conversation ever 🙄 3w

mcctrish @Clare-Dragonfly Banardo and Annette have a shared ability to say nothing but use a lot of words #bothshouldbeshakennotstirred 3w

mcctrish And why was dumbass Emily so resistant to walking to where Banardo was minding the gate? #annettegetsherstepsin (edited) 3w

Bklover @mcctrish 😂😂😂. 3w

Bklover @BarkingMadRead That IS Annette!! 3w

BarkingMadRead @Bklover right?!? I can hear her voice in my head whenever Annette talks 🤣 3w

Clare-Dragonfly @mcctrish 😂😂😂 3w

Bklover Yes!! Me too! 3w

TheAromaofBooks My favorite part of today's chapter was when Emily told Annette she needed to stop crying so much 😂 3w

BarkingMadRead @TheAromaofBooks 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 3w

peanutnine @mcctrish omg they say nothing but use a lot of words 💯🤣 3w

mcctrish @TheAromaofBooks the pot calling the kettle black 🤦🏻‍♀️ 3w

Clare-Dragonfly @TheAromaofBooks Emily is such a hypocrite! 3w

mcctrish Everything is so halfassed in this story! Nobody ever gets the whole story out, nobody reads the papers before burning, describes what‘s in the frame, figures out who‘s been left for dead, actually kills the person they want dead! I‘m just supposed to be happy there were no tears 3w

Bookwormjillk Long line to poison that dude. Also did I miss why she‘s so determined to find Auntie? Auntie doesn‘t like her except for that one sort of compliment that one time. 3w

BarkingMadRead @Bookwormjillk I have no idea, if I were Emily, I‘d be trying to escape. Forget auntie. 3w

AllDebooks Radcliffe is overly fond of the word 'wither'. There has been an awful lot of withering lately 3w

TheAromaofBooks I honestly kind of admired Emily in this chapter - she's completely terrified but still determined to find her aunt and make sure she's okay. And she seems to be fainting more than crying; haven't decided whether or not that's an improvement 😂 3w

BarkingMadRead @TheAromaofBooks I know, like what‘s worse? The fainting or the crying? At least the fainting takes less time 🤷🏻‍♀️ 3w

Clare-Dragonfly And then there are the times she almost faints but sits down and breathes through it… 3w

AllDebooks At least we're picking up pace now. Although I have concerns about Emily's 'free-flowing tears'. Maybe Venice should be on high alert with flood warnings. 🤔 1mo

mcctrish The hashtag #nocrying does not apply, as @AllDebooks says ⬆️ the tears were free-flowing #floodwarningsareineffect at two different parts the way things were being described - coming across the army and the revellers outside the window I honest to god thought Valencourt was going to be part of the group 🤣🤣 that would make this a gothic whatever it is 1mo

BarkingMadRead @mcctrish I 💯 thought so too! Ugh I really thought there was no crying, this is what happens when I start the chapter early and finish it in the evening 🤣 1mo

mcctrish @BarkingMadRead Emily really needs to hydrate 1mo

Clare-Dragonfly In case you wondered whether Montoni married Aunt Scumbag for her money, he apparently doesn‘t even like her! 1mo

dabbe @Clare-Dragonfly If she wasn't such a #scmb, I'd almost feel sorry for her, waiting up for her hubby to come home as he ditches her on their first night at his estate. 😂 1mo

mcctrish This chapter actually worked for me. Auntie makes my head spin with her saying one thing and then taking a 180° 1mo

BarkingMadRead @mcctrish auntie has things finally getting interesting! 1mo

AllDebooks Finally, something more yhan weeping and walks, walks and weeping! 1mo

AllDebooks @Ruthiella 😅 1mo

CatLass007 Would you please remove me from your tag list for #HashtagBrigade? Everyone is great but I want to cut back on some of my buddy reads. Thanks 😚 1mo

Clare-Dragonfly I had a hard time following all the dialogue in this but I got the gist. Specifically that Auntie is a social-climbing moron. 1mo

dabbe @Clare-Dragonfly Can I add “bitch“ to your most excellent comment? As in #socialclimbingmoronbitch ... #scmb for short (which could also read as “scumbag“). 😄 1mo

BarkingMadRead @dabbe 🤣🤣🤣🤣 1mo

Bklover First of all, why does Valencourt keep showing up like a creeper? He always appears from behind a tree or something. Second, Auntie is a scheming witch but at least she‘s interesting- I think she‘s going to be a fun one to hate! 1mo

julieclair @Bklover I freely admit I am hating Auntie and enjoying it! As @dabbe says, #scmb . 😂 1mo

dabbe @julieclair YES! #scmb You know, it's better just thinking it as “scum“! 🤩😂🤗 1mo

Clare-Dragonfly @dabbe Bahahaha, perfect! 😂 1mo

ElizaMarie @bklover! Yes!!! Such a #SneakySneak didn‘t we learn he has good breeding? Why are you such a #WeirdoCreeper !? 1mo

Bookwormjillk Did JK Rowling steal this chapter for that one book where Dumbledore doesn‘t tell Harry anything because Voldemort can read his mind? Also I just found a dead fly on my office floor. Definitely want to just read the rest RIGHT NOW. 2mo

CatLass007 @Bookwormjillk JK Rowling plagiarized Neil Gaiman‘s Books of Magic, it wouldn‘t be surprising for her to plagiarize Bram Stoker. 2mo

Bookwormjillk So the kids will be okay now that Lucy is dead again? Go Vampire hunters! This is making me want to read Salem‘s Lot again. 2mo

See All 15 Comments

BarkingMadRead @mcctrish for sure, I feel like it will be way more dangerous! @Bookwormjillk I think so! 2mo

Clare-Dragonfly I don‘t think Van H‘s theory that everyone ever bitten by a vampire will also become a vampire makes any sense. Wouldn‘t the world be overridden with vampires by now? 2mo

dabbe It's interesting to note that Dracula really hasn't been in the last 10 or so chapters. He's been flitting at the window as a bat/wolf and was seen as himself by Harker, who recognized him, but that's it. He took center stage at the beginning and looks like he will at the end. And now without his newest bride, wonder who he'll go after next? 🤔 2mo

Cuilin @dabbe yes I wondered why it‘s called Dracula. (edited) 2mo

Cuilin That last part it‘s all a little one for all and all for one. 2mo

Cuilin @dabbe Methinks he may go for Mina. Watch out, Jonathan. 2mo

Bookwormjillk @dabbe good point! 2mo

dabbe @Cuilin 😂 2mo

dabbe @Cuilin If he does, she's got the army that Van Helsing is creating, right? However, look how well they did for Lucy. 🙄 2mo

dabbe @Bookwormjillk 🤩 2mo

rubyslippersreads @Clare-Dragonfly I think the victim has to die to become a vampire. 2mo

Clare-Dragonfly @rubyslippersreads From what he said, all the kids Lucy bit would have become vampires eventually, when they died. 2mo

BarkingMadRead @Bookwormjillk #whatcouldgowrong 2mo

Clare-Dragonfly I think Van Helsing was sure Seward wouldn‘t believe him if he hadn‘t seen so much evidence with his own eyes before Van H made the declaration. But he still could have been faster about it 😂 2mo

dabbe @mcctrish He could be a #lostbroofthekaramazovs 😀 2mo

dabbe So, yay for Mina and her shorthand and transcribing, but all Van Helsing can say is that she'll be a benefit to her husband. 🙄 And even she is like “I'm learning all these cool things to help my hubby in his business“--not even once thinking that she could do it just for the sake of learning. And 5 men who have blood inside of Lucy! Would Victorians consider that marriage with all of them? Whew! This book! 🖤 2mo

Graciouswarriorprincess Those maids! And I agree about Mom getting the memo! 2mo

dabbe Every time Van Helsing leaves or Seward has to go home to his practice or Holmwood has to run home again to care for daddy, we all know what's going to happen to Lucy. It's like knowing the TITANIC is going to sink. We know what's going to happen, but we keep reading anyway, hoping against hope that she'll be okay. So frustrating, especially when Van Helsing knows what's going on. ARGHH!! 2mo
