Mill on the Floss | George Eliot

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) 2w
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! 2w

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. 2w
Bookwormjillk Yeah I was liking Tom for a while but today I was team #ShutUpTom 2w
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
2w
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 2w
ElizaMarie @TheAromaofBooks yes!!!! Its a whole #IAmTheONlLYRightPerson in all scenarios thing with Tom. Ugh #TomTheSelfRighteous 2w

Bookwormjillk So much crying. Quick chapter today. 6mo
AllDebooks @mcctrish Emily must be so dehydrated 😭 6mo
mcctrish @Bookwormjillk they crying is a bit easier when it‘s a short chapter 6mo
mcctrish @AllDebooks she‘s got to be a husk by now 6mo
Bookwormjillk @mcctrish for sure. I feel like I‘m bringing bad karma for rolling my eyes at her. I would do the same in real life but it doesn‘t really make for an interesting book. 6mo
mcctrish @Bookwormjillk same, I‘m talking out loud while I read “let me guess, she starts to cry” 🙄 6mo
Clare-Dragonfly Oh yeah, Valancourt, I‘m sure you were sooooo surprised to see Emily there. 🙄 6mo
StaceGhost The amount of times I‘ve wanted to reach in & shake her 6mo
Bklover @mcctrish @Bookwormjillk @AllDebooks @Clare-Dragonfly @StaceGhost After I finished the chapter I immediately came here to see the comments. This is why I love reading with @BarkingMadRead - y‘all are so funny. The crying and feeling faint are driving me nuts 😵‍💫 6mo
mcctrish @Clare-Dragonfly 🤣🤣 6mo

mcctrish @Bookwormjillk it does sound pretty but so far they suck as travellers #itistheirfirstrodeo 6mo
peanutnine I always find it odd that the prescription for illness in this time period is so often travel, like travel is the most exhausting thing I don't get it 6mo
Clare-Dragonfly I‘m surprised to see both monks and nuns in a convent. I thought they were always sex-segregated. 6mo
ElizaMarie @peanutnine yes!!!! I always have to take an extra day off after taking days off from vacation! 6mo
Bklover @peanutnine I agree! Not to mention wandering all over the place picking up germs! 6mo
Ruthiella @Clare-Dragonfly I think Radcliffe might have just made that up. 6mo
AnishaInkspill @BarkingMadRead thanks for the add 😍 these 6mo
AnishaInkspill @Clare-Dragonfly me too, I looked this up and found this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_monastery , maybe Radcliffe means one of these double monastry ? 6mo
AllDebooks Lol, great hashtags 6mo

BarkingMadRead @CatLass007 that‘s amazing 2y
TheBookHippie The picture 😂😂😂😂 their expressions 😂😂😂😂😂 all I keep thinking in my head is gossipy church folk 🤷🏻‍♀️😂😵‍💫👀🤦🏻‍♀️ 2y
BarkingMadRead @TheBookHippie it was the first one to pop up, I don‘t usually get this lucky! My Google game is strong, but not always this strong 🤣🤣🤣 2y
CatLass007 I think it‘s mostly the nose and somewhat the mouth. 2y
Cuilin I‘m putting this🏳️‍🌈 here for Piers because that‘s that‘s what I‘m picking up. Anybody else? @Bklover 2y
TheBookHippie @Cuilin 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈 2y
BarkingMadRead @Cuilin for sure!!! 2y
TheAromaofBooks My favorite part was that she's mad because her husband didn't read her mind and bring her home a present. 🙄 🙄 🙄 2y
Bookwormjillk @TheAromaofBooks and then she used that as an excuse to think about other men 2y
Bklover @Cuilin Yes!!🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈 2y
julieclair I think it was Piers' lover who answered the phone. 🏳️‍🌈 And what the heck, Wilmet? Miffed that Harry hasn't asked you for another date! This woman really is something. 2y
rwmg Catherine Oliphant from “Less Than Angels“ re-cycling her life experience 😁 2y
dabbe @Cuilin #fersure 🏳️‍🌈💚🏳️‍🌈 2y
dabbe And the conversation between Rowena and Wilmet about Harry? Just a wee bit awkward. Though the way these women talk to each other (well, the men, too, for that matter) reminds me of Wharton's upper class New Yorkers in the Gilded Age. The pic for today NAILED it, @BarkingMadRead! 🤩 2y
Aimeesue Perfect pic! 😂 2y

suvata @IndoorDame No joke. I opened up Litsy and had bejesus scared out of me. 2y
suvata @Clare-Dragonfly for Thanksgiving. I‘m going to serve ‘ghost nun buns‘. I have no idea what they are. It‘s just that the name is just too funny. 2y
BarkingMadRead @suvata ohhhhhh sounds like a fun challenge! Ghost nun buns FTW 2y
