BarbaraJean This chapter kind of made me want to throw the book across the room. Or at multiple characters. 1mo
Bookwormjillk Pops cracked me up every time he said Beryl. That breakup seemed abrupt to me but then again Charlie doesn‘t really show emotion. Kind of a weird chapter. 1mo

willaful That's pretty much how I expected it would go. :-( Their religion is such a strange and powerful force in their lives. 1mo
Cuilin @willaful Yes, it‘s like another character in the novel. 1mo
willaful @Cuilin another member of the family, and Charles always underestimates that. 1mo
willaful A thought I just had. Julia's marriage to Rex wasn't sanctioned by the church because he was divorced. A conniving person could probably have had that marriage annulled. 1mo
Clare-Dragonfly Jeez, what the heck? Talk about an anticlimax! I thought Julia would at least talk to Charles about what a condescending jerk he‘s being about her religion. And is he just forgetting about Sebastian?! @BarbaraJean 💯💯💯 1mo
ElizaMarie @willaful but—- I don‘t think Charles‘ marriage could be annulled. I might not know the rules of annulment though 1mo
willaful @ElizaMarie Well she married a divorced man once, surely she's got a mulligan for that. ;-) 1mo
mcctrish I thought the beginning with Lord Marchmain‘s conflicting letters was hilarious which led to the dominoes of who‘s moving where but Julia being unable to marry Charles because of her religion is just a cop out after her first marriage to Rex ( poor Charles is the only one who really wants the house imo) 1mo
ElizaMarie @mcctrish He truly loves the house! 1mo
