mcctrish Oh what a wicked web we weave 2w

dabbe IMHO, this is Wharton's magnum opus. 🩶🤍🖤 2w

Bookwormjillk @dabbe agree! 2w

willaful I wonder at what point did May realize... 2w

Clare-Dragonfly May is sooooo good. And Archer‘s inner monologue just gets worse and worse! 2w

ElizaMarie @willaful I was thinking that too. But I am happy she has pieced a lot of red flags together and figured things out. I love knowing Archer isn't as slick as he thinks he is! 2w

lil1inblue @willaful @elizamarie I hope we find out! 🤔 2w

Cuilin @dabbe agreed!!! 2w

Ruthiella What I found crazy is that Archer ran into acquaintances in Boston. It really underscored what a small world he moves in. 3w

BarkingMadRead @Cuilin I‘m 💯 about to do the same 🤣 2mo

Bookwormjillk I had a feeling this pic was coming today when I saw the title. Poor Molly. They‘re so wrong about everything but that won‘t change their gossip from becoming truth. One of my favorite sayings at work when I‘m mentoring: Don‘t believe everything you think. (Say it to myself often too.) 2mo

BarkingMadRead @Bookwormjillk you know I love this pic 🤣🤣 2mo

Bklover Strange how quickly people that really know Molly are ready to believe the worst! 2mo

Ruthiella What‘s the picture from? 🤔 2mo

AllDebooks It makes me so mad, that Molly is trying to help Cynthia but is just being used and manipulated. 2mo

Sace @Ruthiella I have decided it‘s from a stage production of The Music Man. The song being Pick a little Talk a Little. But I could be wrong. 2mo

BarkingMadRead @ruthiella @Sace yup, a stage production of music man. The film pics were a little blurry 2mo

Bookwormjillk @BarkingMadRead the moment when I went to see The Music Man at my son‘s high school and suddenly the world made sense. 2mo

julieclair @Bklover Yes! Why are people like that? It‘s so mean-spirited. 2mo

eeclayton @Bklover @julieclair That's exactly what I thought, too. They should know better! 2mo

dabbe I guess gossiping was their entertainment. Why not read a book or two, ol' bitties? And Cynthia can just go off into the sunset with all of her male dogs lapping at her heels. Then, get rid of the stepmom and all will be well. Only if Molly is forgiven for her transgression in helping a self-centered narcissist. Yeah, I think I'll be reading ahead. 2mo

dabbe And this picture is PERFECTION!!! 😍 2mo

BarkingMadRead @dabbe I‘ve definitely read ahead 🙈 2mo

rubyslippersreads That Molly! She must have made “brazen overtures” to Mr. Preston. (Not Robert, though.) 🤣 2mo

Lcsmcat @Cuilin Same! 2mo

Lcsmcat @Bklover I know, but at least her Dad stood up for her. 2mo

ElizaMarie Picture is perfect!!! 2mo

Clare-Dragonfly I wonder what the gentle ladies of Hollingford think of Chaucer, Rabelais, and Balzac. 🤔 2mo

rubyslippersreads @Clare-Dragonfly Dirty books! 😂 2mo

mcctrish It happened faster than I thought #maggiespeaksthetruth I wonder if Tom will actually hear and understand Maggie‘s words later on? How he is inherently mean? I pity any girl he sets his eye on ( I don‘t think Tom is wrong though that #techytully being upset with Phil and Mags would be nothing compared to #snakywakey ‘s response or how compromised Mags would be if it was known she was meeting up with a boy) 4mo

TheAromaofBooks @mcctrish - That's the thing, Tom wasn't 100% wrong; I think he was actually right about a lot of what he said, but wowsers he sure is one self-satisfied, obnoxious kid. Such an uncomplicated conscience - if I do it, it's right; if I don't do it, it's wrong 😂 Poor Maggie. I was glad that she at least put the vow into her own words! 4mo

See All 8 Comments

Ruthiella Tom could have been more compassionate, for sure. I did like how Maggie told him off-even though it will not soak in-he is so sure of his own correctness. 4mo

Bookwormjillk Yeah I was liking Tom for a while but today I was team #ShutUpTom 4mo

dabbe I couldn't help but also notice that this chapter ends with Maggie actually being a wee bit glad that the secret is out in the open and that she can't see Phil anymore. Maybe she loved him but not enough. And Tom, well, maybe a new hashtag: #tommytemper? #oy
4mo

Leftcoastzen Tom is so overbearing, he feels he‘s the only thing holding it all together.Poor Maggie has so few privileges or prospects because of the situation.I think she loved talking with Phil & having a little secret.Like @dabbe I think she felt relieved. She doesn‘t care for Phil enough 4mo

ElizaMarie @TheAromaofBooks yes!!!! Its a whole #IAmTheONlLYRightPerson in all scenarios thing with Tom. Ugh #TomTheSelfRighteous 4mo

Cuilin @Bookwormjillk same. I don‘t normally read creepy but this is good. 11mo

julieclair @Cuilin I never read creepy either. But I‘m enjoying this because we‘re reading it together. There‘s safety in numbers! 11mo

Bookwormjillk So is Mary just gone then? 2y

BarkingMadRead @Bookwormjillk she‘s off to the nunnery, I wonder if we will see her again! 2y

Bookwormjillk @BarkingMadRead I hope so I‘m kind of invested. I want to see her wearing her pearls living her best life. 2y

BarkingMadRead @Bookwormjillk me too! 2y

rwmg @bookwormjillk @barkingmadread It may not be what we would want but ATM the nunnery is her best life. 2y

Bklover Anyone think it interesting that Piers brought up Oscar Wilde? (edited) 2y

Cuilin @Bklover yes, I‘m seeing some queer coding for sure. The quarrel and falling out with the room mate. I think his sister knows. Of course I could be completely wrong. 2y

Bklover @Cuilin I‘m just glad you‘re seeing it too! It would explain some things, like you mentioned. And if we‘re wrong, at least there‘s two of us! 2y

julieclair @Bklover @Cuilin There are three of us! (edited) 2y

dabbe @Bklover Yes! And today Wilmet brought up the idea that she wonders who Piers's roommate is. Could he be? He's always moody and unhappy, and it's 1952. I wonder. 🤔 2y

Bookwormjillk So did Lucy fall in a hole filled with violets to find George when he kissed her? Also loved Mr Eager‘s description of tourists going from place to place just to check things off. #Dontlovehim #Buthekindofhadapointthere 2y

mcctrish Roller coaster chapter, I was legit #poorlucy this is the worst vacation ever with Mr Eager condemning tourists in one breath and pointing out where ‘people of worth‘ live with the other ( but don‘t look, you can‘t see), and Charlotte and Miss Lavish being absolute snobs about everyone “he is the image of a porter - on, on the South-Eastern” #lucyshouldjumpfromthecarriageitsthatbad BUT a kiss 💋 #hereforit #thingsaregettingspicy 2y

BarkingMadRead @Bookwormjillk he was too on point 🤣 also, I think she slid down a little embankment maybe? 2y

Ruthiella I loved Mr. Emerson championing the canoodling between the driver and his “sister”. “To be driven by lovers, a king might envy us…” It would be hard to be his son, but I love him in book form. (edited) 2y

Bklover Lucy‘s determination to avoid the Emersons insures that she spends time with all the snobby idiots. 🙄 Charlotte is an absolute master of manipulation. 😈 Thank goodness she wanted to rid herself of Lucy or we never would have gotten to The Kiss! 💋Oh, and someone should shove Eager off a cliff. Either that, or condemn him to live among the peasants! (edited) 2y

peanutnine This chapter was so wild and I can't wait for the reactions to The Kiss! 2y

julieclair The Kiss! 💋 Go George! #hereforit 2y

Clare-Dragonfly He KISSED her out of nowhere?! Whoa! George, not okay! Also I hope there‘s a good movie of this because I want to see this scene with all the violets. 2y

Clare-Dragonfly I see I am the only one less than thrilled with The Kiss 😂 2y

Cuilin @Clare-Dragonfly there‘s two movies, one from around 2009 and one from the 90‘s with Helena Bonham Carter. The later one is my favorite. 2y

Cuilin @Ruthiella I agree, he‘s fabulous 2y

dabbe I keep expecting Mr. Emerson to break out in poetry by Keats or Byron or Shelley; he is quite the Romantic. ❤️ 2y

Clare-Dragonfly @Cuilin Oh, I love Helena Bonham Carter 😍 2y

TheAromaofBooks @Clare-Dragonfly - I also felt like the kiss was a little abrupt 😂 2y

Cuilin @dabbe that would have been perfectly appropriate ❤️ I haven‘t been to Italy yet, but when I go, I will be taking their poetry with me. 2y
