Bookwormjillk 🤣🤣🤣 I expected some sort of blah blah blah because it was such a long chapter but instead we got Jerry Springer 11mo

currentlyreadinginCO The problem w this book is that no one calls anyone by their name and I always have to reread everything to find out what happened! It took me a couple rereads to understand who was locked out and where everyone was at the end of this chapter 😂😂. But despite my constant complaining I'm actually really enjoying this and don't think I would have gotten this far w.o the buddy read, SO 11mo

BarkingMadRead @Bookwormjillk 🤣🤣🤣🤣 11mo

BarkingMadRead @currentlyreadinginCO my allergies are so bad today that it took me like an hour to actually get through it. I had to keep going back and reading it again. 11mo

TheBookHippie @Bookwormjillk WORD. 11mo

TheBookHippie @BarkingMadRead I now am going back to nighttime reading with appropriate beverages…. This was ..😵‍💫🤪 ALOT. 11mo

dabbe @TheBookHippie The nighttime beverages make ALL the difference. 😂 #whichmanisthepan #panpanpan #paniepanpanie #myheadhurts 11mo

BarkingMadRead @dabbe so confusing 🤣 I just let it go, I figured they wouldn‘t be around long enough to matter 🤣 11mo

TheAromaofBooks As usual, spot-on meme usage here 😂 11mo

BarkingMadRead @TheAromaofBooks #mygooglegameisstrong 11mo

dabbe @BarkingMadRead 🤩😍😂 11mo

mcctrish @TheAromaofBooks absolute truth 🤣🤣 11mo

mcctrish @Bookwormjillk this is Jerry Springer on steroids 🤣🤣 11mo

mcctrish @TheBookHippie I wish I had enough money to order a few cases of champagne to drink this with ( some blini and caviar would be a nice touch too) 11mo

TheBookHippie @mcctrish I don‘t like Vodka but it‘s probably what they drank 🤪👀😅 11mo

BarkingMadRead @mcctrish there‘s not enough champagne in the world for that chapter 🤣 it was so chaotic! 11mo

mcctrish @BarkingMadRead honestly I read this so loud in my head 🤕 11mo

Graciouswarriorprincess That was crazy! 11mo

Aimeesue @Bookwormjillk Jerry Springer! lol! 11mo

5feet.of.fury 1 paragraph that was 3.5 pages long. And that‘s all I got out of it, Ivan wrote a poem lol 12mo

BarkingMadRead @5feet.of.fury it was a little mind numbing 12mo

Cuilin Just realized I put my comment on the wrong post. 🤦‍♀️ seriously all that talk of cruelty to children. I don‘t know how Alyosha eat his soup and preserves. 12mo

AllDebooks @5feet.of.fury 😅🤣 12mo

SamAnne That chapter was just too much…. 12mo

TheAromaofBooks Like I kind of got that Ivan was trying to prove that God doesn't really exist because suffering does, particularly the suffering of innocents. But I also felt like he was definitely ignoring/glossing over some critical pro-faith arguments while pretending like he was addressing them. 12mo

mcctrish Shut. Up. Ivan. #ivanhasastupidexpressiononhisface @Cuilin exactly! Aloysha finally gets to sit down and eat something and fucking Ivan goes off on child abuse 12mo

BarkingMadRead @TheAromaofBooks yes! 12mo

Bookwormjillk That was dark you guys 12mo

currentlyreadinginCO This poem is going to be something 😂 12mo

BarkingMadRead @currentlyreadinginCO #beveryafraid 🤣 12mo

BarkingMadRead @mcctrish 🤣🤣🤣 12mo

mcctrish @currentlyreadinginCO it better 12mo

Aimeesue Ursula K. Le Guin based a story on one of the ideas Ivan tosses out in this chapter - "The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas." (edited) 12mo

@Catsandbooks @Andrew65 @TheSpineView @TheAromaofBooks @AmandaBlaze

Thought I'd try to post an everyday list of readathons because if you're like me, it's crazy trying to keep track of all of them! 🤩
***UPDATED, thanks to @TheSpineView and @TEArificbooks. Please let me know if I've missed anything. #mybrainhurts

TEArificbooks There is also #witchathon if any books read have something to do with witches 1y

TheSpineView Also #Falling4books hosted by @Read4life 1y

dabbe @TEArificbooks I thought that was a Bingo not a Readathon. Thanks for the heads up! 🤩 1y

See All 13 Comments

dabbe @TheSpineView Again, thought it was only a Bingo. I'm so CONFUSED! We need different names for the readathon vs. a bingo for the stupidly-impaired like me! 🤪🤪🤪 1y

Catsandbooks Great idea! 1y

dabbe @Catsandbooks 🤩😃🤗 1y

TEArificbooks @dabbe it is a readathon with a bingo 1y

Read4life #Falling4Books is a Readathon. I created a bingo board for anyone wanting extra fun and extra points. 1y

TheSpineView Thanks for this. I'm having trouble keeping up. 1y

dabbe @Read4life I think I have it squared away now, thanks! 🖤🧡🖤 1y

dabbe @TheSpineView #metoo 🖤🧡🖤 1y

TheAromaofBooks Looks great!! I have an entire spreadsheet for this month! 😂 1y

AnnR @BarkingMadRead - I think you said it all. Wow! Just wow! I was just relieved Adela got rid of her echo, just in the knick of time for Dr. Aziz. 1y

willaful I truly wasn't expecting that! Still have kind of a feeling of dread. The whole situation is so volatile. 1y

Morr_Books @willaful Agree! 1y

Bklover You have definitely outdone yourself with today‘s ### 🩵 1y

jenniferw88 I'm just glad that the song I chose to go with this book for #dramaqueen #titlesandtunes makes sense, as Fielding is called a renegade in ch.24! @Cinfhen @BarbaraBB 1y

TheAromaofBooks Seriously head-spinning. Honestly, I was the most shocked about Mrs. Moore! 1y

BarkingMadRead @Bklover I almost ran out of space! 1y

BarkingMadRead @TheAromaofBooks it felt so out of left field! 1y

Cinfhen @jenniferw88 🫶🏼🎶🎉 1y

dabbe @TheAromaofBooks That cave really messed with her; it's like she completely lost the will to live after that. I wish Forster would tell us more about why the heck that was such a complete life-altering-to-death experience for her. 1y

BarbaraBB @jenniferw88 Spot on 🙌🏽 1y

TheAromaofBooks @dabbe - It just seemed so strange! I understood her having this sort of internal/spiritual shake up, but it seemed a little bizarre that hearing some echoing voices was enough to make her reject all of her religious beliefs and descend into complete apathy!? I felt so bad for her - she didn't have anyone to talk it out with, to offer her reassurances or alternate views. 😕 1y

dabbe @TheAromaofBooks This has been a strange book for me on the whole: I mean, what was even the point of having her in the book and then killing her offstage? And what the heck is the big deal about an echo? Caves echo; get used to it, people.

The wording has been bizarre in places, too, plus how people talk to each other. But, maybe that's the point. We're supposed to feel weird because they feel weird relating to one another. 🤷‍♀️ 1y

TheAromaofBooks @dabbe - This book has done a great job capturing a general sense of unease and uncertainty, the fragility of a system that assumes everyone “knows their place“ and can't handle anyone deciding they don't like that place. But as a story... it's been somewhat lacking for me 😂 1y

dabbe @TheAromaofBooks Much better said than what I wrote. Agree 💯! I 😍 A ROOM WITH A VIEW, but this one not so much. 🤣 1y
