mcctrish I just feel so bad for Molly and her dad, I‘m not sure they even realized they needed to watch for this conniving drama but papa seems to fit right in “you aren‘t the only one who can change their mind” #bitchplease 2mo

dabbe @mcctrish I see some major emotional explosion coming soon down the Hollingford road! 3mo

willaful Before I was getting Emma vibes, now I'm getting Mansfield Park vibes. 3mo

Bklover Osborne and Roger can be such idiots! Poor Molly! 3mo

Lcsmcat @willaful Very Mansfield Park-like! Except Molly has more spirit than Fanny. 3mo

willaful @Lcsmcat She's no Fanny but she may be just as bad at being in a love-triangle. No idea what to do at all, poor dear. 3mo

Bookwormjillk Bye Tom 👋 The short chapters made this a good pick for chapter a day IMO. 5mo

mcctrish That chapter just went downhill fast 5mo

Leftcoastzen I feel for Tully ,where else could you borrow from than your family, yet so often used as manipulation. 5mo

Book 1, ch 1: loving all the covers so far! #shortchapter #boyandgirl #dorlcotemill #beautifulwriting #inlovewithmoistness #um #hashtagbrigade

Bookwormjillk This was a pretty chapter. Perfect for spring. 5mo

Leftcoastzen Forgot to start 🙄😳 5mo

mcctrish benumbed arms - this a going to be lovely 5mo

Ruthiella The first chapter was a breeze. ❤️ 5mo

dabbe I think “moist“ was used in different forms more than once! 🤣 I love the setup to a long flashback of what happens at Dorlcote Mill on the Floss River. No dental floss here whatsoever! 🤩 5mo

Sparklemn “There is a remnant still of last year‘s golden clusters of beehive-ricks rising at intervals beyond the hedgerows…” Such beautiful writing! 5mo

Bklover So far so good! 5mo

AllDebooks This was a perfect opening, such evocative writing. 5mo

Leftcoastzen Very descriptive, I‘m interested. 5mo

mcctrish Best chapter yet and not the game I pictured or what I ever thought it was called 8mo

BarkingMadRead @mcctrish I‘m picturing one of those wooden boards with divots in them, and you have to try and roll marbles into the divots 8mo

mcctrish I was thinking more of the game you get in Christmas crackers made of plastic with little silver balls but of course it would be wood in these Lark Rise times 8mo

Bookwormjillk I had that game! That brings back memories of flinging things at my brother. Anyway, good chapter. Love Uncle Tom and the lady with all the cats who thought everyone was out to get her. 8mo

willaful @mcctrish That's what I'm thinking. We have (had?) a large one made with mercury, which of course isn't used anymore! 8mo

willaful So this chapter referenced Villette, which I guess is a call-out to #LiteraryCrew, which is reading it next. :-) 8mo

BarkingMadRead @willaful #hashtagbrigade read Villette a couple years back as well! 8mo

mcctrish @willaful I started Villette today on audio ( I am wondering if I should be reading it ) 8mo

tpixie Reminds me of Puff n Stuff … 7mo

tpixie @willaful fun coinkydink about Villette, just as we are about to read it! Synchronicity 7mo

Bookwormjillk Lol holding the creepy doll up to the window. This chapter reminded me of when certain neighbors turn to our listserve to be cranky about Halloween. According to them the kids never do it right. 8mo

AllDebooks Dolls really creep me out 8mo

mcctrish I love a short chapter, sucks it was ruined by the creepy doll 8mo

TheAromaofBooks I've read about May Day festivities in many old books, but I don't remember ever hearing about a doll before. 8mo

BarkingMadRead @mcctrish so frustrating! 9mo

Bookwormjillk @mcctrish I do think the whole point of this book will be we‘re supposed to forgive Val and be happy for Em when she ends up with him. 9mo

mcctrish @Bookwormjillk better a loser than being alone #amiright 9mo

Clare-Dragonfly @mcctrish You‘d think she would have learned from her aunt that a loser is NOT better than being alone! 9mo

Clare-Dragonfly Raise your hand if you didn‘t know it was Valancourt helping Theresa the moment she said she couldn‘t say who it was 🤛🏻 9mo

BarkingMadRead @Clare-Dragonfly I was torn between him and the creeper, it could have gone either way I guess 🤣 I also half wonder if it was the creeper that got shot as well 🤣 9mo

mcctrish @Clare-Dragonfly you‘d think 🤔 😝 9mo

mcctrish Ooo @BarkingMadRead maybe the creeper was shot saving Val once again 9mo
