BarkingMadRead @peanutnine yes! I was really angry! 2y
Bklover Yes- Mr Bennet was just plain mean to her 2y
MoonWitch94 Mr. Bennett is a pompous dick in this novel! 😵💫 #isaidwhatisaid 🤪 2y
BarkingMadRead Lol @MoonWitch94 I totally agree! He wasn‘t an ideal human in P&P but this is so much worse 2y
CoffeeNBooks I was so surprised by Mr. Bennet's treatment of Mrs. Hill, especially since we've just previously read that Mrs. Bennett wanted her to speak to him about new dresses for the Bennet ladies. I had assumed maybe he and Mrs. Hill were on good terms. And James... hmm, what is this danger that he's referring to that might sneak up in him? Where was he before that his meals were as he described? And why does he have the opinions he does of love? 2y
julieclair @CoffeeNBooks I agree… lots of intriguing questions about James. A man with a past, for sure. And he is definitely worried about the militia. 2y
Sparklemn @BarkingMadRun @moonwitch94 I thought of Mr Bennett more as a doormat than a dick in the movies. (Can't remember how I felt about him in the book as it's been a while since I read it). “Tick tock, Mrs. Hill. Tick Tock.“ What a jerk. 2y
MoonWitch94 @Sparklemn I saw him as a doormat in the novel, but indifferent in the movies. But such a jerk here. It‘s so interesting how every adaptation of classic characters shifts & changes. 2y
