Loved this book. I‘m so glad my vampire aversion didn‘t keep me away. I should have known the #hashtagbrigade wouldn‘t lead me astray (except for when they do but we still have fun #thebros)

Thanks @BarkingMadRead

“You remember when I told you the Russians could have more than one first name?” she asked me.
“Yes, like in the novels. ‘You end up getting lost in it.‘”

Still confused by #TheBros #HashtagBrigade

Ruthiella I don‘t know what you mean? Dimitry = Dima, Dimakha, Dimasha, Dimulia, Dimusia, Dimusha, Mitra, Mitrasha, Mutriukha, Mitria, Mitiunia, Mitia, Mitiay and don‘t forget the patronymic! 🤣 (edited) 5mo
Bookwormjillk @Ruthiella 🤣🤣🤣 5mo
Aimeesue @Ruthiella I‘m NEVER going to forget the patronymic! 😂 5mo

I‘m starting this tonight and a bit behind, reading with the #pemberlittens.

This cover makes me laugh and I bought it just for the cover.

Cuilin I don‘t know if it‘s because we have read such dark material that I am having trouble with all the sweetness. I think there‘s something wrong with me. Am I broke? lol 6mo
IndoorDame @Cuilin hahaha, I usually can‘t do sweet either so you‘re not broke (or at least you‘re not alone 😂), but somehow this is one of my favorite books ever, which really makes no sense 6mo
Ruthiella @Cuilin It‘s not only you. This book is overly sweet for my tastes. 6mo
Cuilin @BarkingMadRead is that our new name? 😂 #thebrosbrokeus 6mo
willaful @Ruthiella @Cuilin We'll be getting some... well, if I say spice, I'll completely mislead you.... 😂

For me, the strong characters and the fun made it worth while.
6mo
BarkingMadRead @willaful I totally agree! There is definite some drama and fun ahead 6mo
dabbe @BarkingMadRead Now THAT's a hashtag! 🤩😂😀 6mo
willaful @dabbe you earned it! 6mo
Clare-Dragonfly 😍😍😍 6mo
TheAromaofBooks I literally bawled my way through this chapter 😂 6mo
Bookwormjillk @willaful @Ruthiella @Cuilin @BarkingMadRead I don‘t want to spoil but it definitely doesn‘t stay this way. And after I highly recommend 6mo
Bookwormjillk @TheAromaofBooks got a little misty for me too 🥹 6mo
Cuilin @Ruthiella @IndoorDame so glad that I‘m not the only one and I‘m in good company! 6mo
mcctrish @Librarybelle 😆😆😆 6mo
mcctrish @Bookwormjillk I love anything Geraldine Brooks writes, I am totally up for March 6mo
mcctrish I love this book @TheAromaofBooks I‘m trying not to cry 6mo

Despite trying multiple times, I've never actually read this classic. I know how beloved it is, but there's just something about it that I don't connect with. However, it feels like a huge gap in my literary knowledge, so maybe giving it a go with the #hashtagbrigade will help?

Tamra I find reading with others helps! 6mo
Ruthiella You can do it with the #hashtagbrigade ! 👍 It‘s not my favorite and I wonder if I‘d feel differently if I had read it as a child, or even seen one of the adaptations as a kid. 6mo
LeahBergen That‘s true, @Ruthiella . I love this book (and read it as a child) and yet I haven‘t enjoyed some of her other books that I first came to as an adult. 🤷🏻‍♀️ (edited) 6mo

Hooked_on_books I‘ve never read it, either! I‘ve also never tried. But I‘ve definitely had success reading books with others that I know I would never get through if left to my own devices. 6mo
Clare-Dragonfly I have definitely finished books I would not have finished otherwise with the #hashtagbrigade! 6mo
dabbe I could have NEVER gotten through some reads (talking to you, A PASSAGE TO INDIA and #thebros) without the #hashtagbrigade. C'mon and join us! 🤩🤗😀 6mo
rubyslippersreads I read this and all of her other books as a child. I love this, but my two favorite Alcotts are Eight Cousins and Rose in Bloom. 6mo
rubyslippersreads I think you should join us. The March sisters are much more fun than #thebros. 🤣 6mo
quietjenn @Ruthiella @LeahBergen @rubyslippersreads Maybe! Although I'm pretty sure I tried to read it as a kid and couldn't get into it then either. Maybe I'm just contrary. 😂 6mo
quietjenn @Hooked_on_books @dabbe @Clare-Dragonfly @rubyslippersreads I've definitely found it helpful to get through a few things in the past. I will give this one a go - again! - and see if the company and the hashtags help! 6mo
quietjenn @rubyslippersreads Maybe I will try those! I did read and really love An Old Fashioned Girl, around the time that I first became a children's librarian. 6mo
