dabbeAnd now we have a new guy coming to town. Who's this Mr. Donne person going to be? #newmanintown 😱 1mo
dabbe@Bookwormjillk 😂😂😂 I tried reading that last part in bed last night and just 💤 my way through it!1mo
mcctrishIn my usual #worstcasescenario vein I assume Donne knows Bellingshit and Ruth will be exposed. I feel bad for Jemima, one can only take so much control. Half of her troubles would be solved by just talking to people but these are the times we are in so no talking allowed. Bradshaw is such a pompous asshole - he‘d rather someone went to debtors prison than offer credit for a month so they could avoid it1mo
mcctrish@TheBookHippie not to conflate modern politics with these olden days, but I feel like Bradshaw‘s descendants are trying to have a go right now 🤬1mo
Clare-Dragonfly@Bookwormjillk I keep thinking of the hypocritical banker guy from Middlemarch. Bradshaw doesn‘t seem to be that much of a hypocrite but I‘m reserving judgment…1mo
AimeesueAll that stuff in the chapter and I‘m just sad that Leonard didn‘t get to pick strawberries. 🍓1mo
dabbe@mcctrish Oh, Mr. Bradshaw's allowed to talk. A. Lot. 🙄 He fits the category of someone with logorrhea, my #weirdwordwednesday word. 😂1mo
mcctrish@dabbe Bradshaw has got entitled white male-itus but I love your #weirdwordwednesday word ( steam literally comes out my ears whenever I read him speaking, no wonder Jemima is losing her shit )1mo
willafulWhat a depressing chapter! Jemima is so young and stupid. On the other hand, maybe she could never be happy married to someone so closely associated with her father.4w
rubyslippersreads@mcctrish I bet you‘re right. Ruth‘s past has to be revealed somehow, so Mr. Bradshaw can shame her.4w
