ElizaMarie Ooo -- things are happening ---- #FingersCrossed it continues! Also, I hope Maggie annoys Tom with praise of Phil. 5mo
TheAromaofBooks At least it feels like they are acting like regular children instead of psychopaths now 😂 5mo
mcctrish Thank god he stabbed himself @AllDebooks I am struggling 5mo
dabbe @TheAromaofBooks 🤣🤣🤣 5mo
mcctrish @dabbe is it the time period? I did care but it‘s getting harder 5mo
dabbe @mcctrish Maybe. It's also the absence again of a plot. I mean, it's a bildungsroman about Maggie and Tom growing up, but have a driving plot line, please! 🤣 5mo
julieclair @ElizaMarie You called it! Flesh wound! 🎯 5mo
julieclair @dabbe @mcctrish @ElizaMarie At least the lack of a plot is preventing me being tempted to read ahead. 🤣🤣😂 5mo
dabbe @julieclair And if you're like me, I count the pages before I read, and I happily rejoice if it's less than 10 pages! 🤣😍🤣 5mo
eeclayton @dabbe same 😂 5mo
Leftcoastzen @julieclair 😂no temptation to read ahead #gotplot 5mo
Clare-Dragonfly @julieclair Oh yeah, this isn‘t like The Woman in White where it was so hard to stop at the end of each section! 5mo
julieclair @Clare-Dragonfly Full confession: I often didn‘t stop at the end of each section with Woman in White. Totally impossible. 4mo
BarkingMadRead @julieclair @Clare-Dragonfly I 💯 read ahead for Woman in White 4mo

CatLass007 Thank you for the reminder! I had forgotten that I was supposed to read some of this today. 6mo
Ruthiella Such a delightfully creepy beginning! 6mo

Clare-Dragonfly This is exciting! Pesca is such a delight. I‘ll be disappointed if the rest of the book is all at Limmeridge and he doesn‘t show up. 6mo
Clare-Dragonfly I do have to say, the description of “a woman in white” is not exactly calculated to get the right person back to the asylum 😂 6mo
Bklover Ooh, this is fun! Pesca is wonderful! Mom was fun too, although Sis is a stuffy thing! 6mo
Bookwormjillk Super creepy. I loved it. 6mo
Leftcoastzen Wonderful! So happy I joined in ! Great intrigue in this beginning. Love Pesca . 6mo
TheAromaofBooks This one is off to a great start!! I also loved Walter's sister vs mom - isn't it funny how as you get older, you're less concerned about what people think, so you start having fun again? 😂 6mo
ElizaMarie I love how quickly something happens! I‘m excited to read more!!! 6mo
mcctrish Another great start #wearentinlarkriseanymore 6mo
julieclair Off to an intriguing, creepy start. Love it! 6mo
dabbe @mcctrish You mean we're not going to read 40 pages on just farming equipment? 🤩 6mo
mcctrish @dabbe or the endless ramblings of drunk Russians or the lack of mysteries in verdant valleys 6mo

BarkingMadRead @Clare-Dragonfly I‘m so relieved 😰 8mo
mcctrish Well that was action packed @Clare-Dragonfly they also don‘t read or finish thoughts or ever let us know what‘s going on! Emily is haunted by papers she burned and didn‘t read except for a few words which she won‘t recount to us 😡 8mo
Bookwormjillk This book is almost over and I feel like we‘re still in the introduction. 8mo
eeclayton @mcctrish I also really want to know what she saw behind that veil in the castle of Udolpho 😡 8mo
mcctrish @eeclayton is this the mystery of udolpho? Unfinished thoughts? Things not described? Conversations not had? Things we missed cuz we fainted ? it‘s certainly not tears not shed #rivershavebeencried #lakeshavebeenfilled 8mo
dabbe Your picture says EVERYTHING about this book that I simply could not finish. Absolute kudos to all of you who could! You are my inspiration! 💙❄️💙 8mo
AllDebooks @mcctrish 😅🤣🤣 I actually feel cheated. This is supposed to be one of the most iconic, ground-breaking gothic novels and it's pure melodrama eeked out forrrrreeeevvvvvvver #teenagevoiceandeyeroll 👀🙄 Where all the ghosts and mysteries at? 8mo
AllDebooks If you use the analogy of a walk in the park for the twists and turns of actual plot alongside all the flimflam melodrama that padded it out, we actually just walked every bloody peak in the Pyrenees. 8mo
mcctrish @AllDebooks yay I got my steps in this week/month 8mo
