Agnes Grey: Large Print | Anne Anne Bront
post image
TheAromaofBooks In the last chapter Agnes mentioned the biblical parable of the rich man who had many sheep, but when an unexpected visitor arrives, he takes his poor neighbor's only lamb to serve it for supper. I kept thinking about that throughout this chapter as Rosalie used her power not just to try and win over Mr. W, but to actively sabotage Agnes's character/any chance of future happiness along the way. 2y

IndoorDame I like that her “love poem” is more of a slam poem about what a bitch Rosalie is to her! 😂 2y
AnnR I'm cheering for a happy ending, too. Go, team Agnes! 2y
BarkingMadRead @IndoorDame right?!? I wish she was more outgoing about it, she needs to tell Rosalie no, instead of staying home all the time like a prisoner! @Bookwormjillk still hoping for a happy ending myself!! 2y
TheBookHippie @IndoorDame 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼slam poem! 2y
TheBookHippie 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻for happiness ♥️ 2y
TheBookHippie @TheAromaofBooks makes me wonder what her real life was like!!!! 2y
Ruthiella Let‘s see what happens. Rosalie is behaving terribly like the spoiled child she is. I don‘t think she can even conceive that Agnes might have feelings that will be hurt. 😖 But I don‘t think Weston is like Mr. Hatfield and so easily fooled. 2y
willaful I'm worried we're going to get a Mansfield Park situation.... not that I care what happens to Rosalie. 2y
mcctrish I think the fact Mr W is asking after Agnes has sent Rosalie into full psycho mode! #slampoem is perfect @IndoorDame I‘d not think Mr W‘a head will be turned in the least but it sounds like time is running out 😬 #getthebitchhitched so Agnes can see Mr W again 2y
Clare-Dragonfly Ugh, Rosalie is so sociopathic! She really doesn‘t seem to care that other people have feelings! Not impressed with Agnes in this chapter either. “Oh, only ~*~I~*~ can understand this special man” 🙄 2y
willaful @Clare-Dragonfly oh, interesting point. 2y
dabbe Is it just me? I can't help but see parallels between Rosalie and Estella from GREAT EX (crazy Havisham aside). Two self-serving narcissistic women using men as their playthings. More than Agnes finding happiness with Weston, I want Rosalie to PAY. 2y

I‘m just a little more than 60 pages away from finishing This Cruel Design. The thought another year-long wait for the next installment is already looming large for me. This series has been so much fun to read so far. #SoCruel #ThisCruelDesign #ThisMortalCoil #EmilySuvada #YA #scifi #youngadult

Holy crap. I loved this quote from This Cruel Design. Emily brings beauty to this moment that is an act of destruction. I‘m loving this book.

There‘s such a strength to Emily Suvada‘s writing. She gets so much perfect that she‘s very much Jun Bei, but writing fiction instead of genetic code. The way she takes a moment in this chapter to reorient the reader with what‘s happening for each of these characters and what‘s at stake is impressive. #SoCruel #EmilySuvada #ThisCruelDesign #YA #scifi #youngadult

This was me at two in the morning. Was a bleary-eyed mess. Emily Suvada keeps pulling the pins on all these plot grenades, and it‘s so good. #BadaBOOM #ThisCruelDesign #SoCruel #EmilySuvada #YA #scifi

CouronneDhiver Yep. ☕️ 6y

I‘m starting chapter 7 of This Cruel Design, and this book keeps raising the stakes with every turn of the page. #SoCruel #EmilySuvada #ThisCruelDesign #YA #ThisMortalCoil
