Bookwormjillk I don‘t think he was wrong though about the rabbits? Oh well. 1w

BarkingMadRead @Bookwormjillk definitely not wrong! 1w

dabbe I worry about Maggie. She ignores the rabbits and lets them starve to death and takes out her aggressions by stabbing a doll voodoo-style while in the attic. This can not bode well for her psyche. And Tom loving-hating her within minutes. Granted, what she did to the rabbits was awful, but still. 1w

Bklover @Bookwormjillk @dabbe You‘re right about the rabbits. I‘m even mad at her for that! But I hate all of this “I won‘t love you anymore”. Even mom says it. Anyway. I just wanted to mention the last sentence of the chapter is gorgeous! It‘s the narrator speaking about childhood memories. 1w

BarkingMadRead @Bklover the writing is just beautiful! 1w

dabbe @Bklover 🤩😍🤗 1w

Morr_Books I may have an unpopular view, but I'm kinda on team Tom... for this chapter. 1w

ElizaMarie AND the mom quickly again goes to Maggie Drowned! What is with the drowning, maybe her momma lost her sister to drowning. Or do people just up and drown all the time? Is drowning the new boogieman? 1w

BarkingMadRead @ElizaMarie I really hope we get some clarity on this, I need me a good backstory! 1w

mcctrish @Morr_Books I‘m team Tom too! He asked 2 people to check on his rabbits and they both let him down 👎🏻👎🏻 and he‘s not allowed to be upset ( mom is a bit theatrical with the drowning ) 1w

Clare-Dragonfly @ElizaMarie I think it‘s just because they live close to a river, but maybe there is something… 1w

ElizaMarie @Clare-Dragonfly Oo that makes more sense than it being something more nefarious. 1w

Leftcoastzen Why doesn‘t mom just say stay away from the river ! If my mom said stay away from the river , she would have told me why , and I would have stayed away from the river ! 😁 6d

Leftcoastzen I was miffed everyone let Tom down as well , it was a simple ask , Maggie is young but should have been able to look after a couple of rabbits. The parents don‘t look after her , I know people had plenty of work in those days. 6d

mcctrish I laughed out loud twice during #countporkchop ‘s side of the story with his insertions about how awesome he is 🤣🤣 but cringed at how much he looovvvveeddd Marian ( but it saved her so yay Marian) every time someone describes him I hear in the back of my mind “how fat was he?” like part of a running joke 4w

Bookwormjillk Honestly I would read a whole book told from the POV of Uncle and Count. They‘re awful but so funny. And he wasn‘t wrong about Marian. 4w

BarkingMadRead @Clare-Dragonfly for real! I laughed the whole time. @mcctrish I could only use drawings of him, the actors they used were never fat enough 🤷🏻‍♀️ 4w

Bklover The illustration is perfect!😂😂 4w

BarbaraJean @Bklover The illustration is absolutely perfect, in no small part because at first I interpreted the right hand as a foot and his belly as the leg attached to that “foot,“ and the ridiculousness of that pose + the ridiculousness of seeing my error had me cackling 😂 😂 Also: does he have smoke coming out of his ear?!? What is happening?! 4w

mcctrish This was wild and I am still not convinced #percypig died. I‘m with @Ruthiella too easy #whatawickedweb 1mo

BarbaraJean @Ruthiella I felt the same. I need to see vindication! @mcctrish Could Percy have a doppelganger as well? 😂 1mo

Clare-Dragonfly I was right! 🙌🏻 Though what Walt discovers seems to prove above all that #percypig‘s so-called parents weren‘t married. So why does Mrs. Clements think Sir Felix was married? There are more mysteries to unravel. I also disagree with him: I think #percypig is just the kind of idiot to set the fire on purpose. The Count would have had a better plan, but obviously #percypig didn‘t want #countporkchop to know his Secret. 1mo

Leftcoastzen I‘m thinking more mysteries to come ! I knew when that notation seemed wedged in , no marriage, but so many layers with this story ! Yeah , I could imagine #percypig could have set fire on purpose, not knowing he was trapped. 1mo

Bookwormjillk I was a little disappointed in the secret to be honest, but am now thinking either Count set the fire or Percy escaped. 1mo

ElizaMarie Because the other dude has gotten confused and thought Walt was Percy —- it makes me think Percy is alive. And/Or he might have tries to catch Walt in the fire and kill him instead? #SomethingIsOff #IDontTrustThis 1mo

BarkingMadRead @ElizaMarie I wondered the same, you kind of need someone who knows the man to ID him 🙄 1mo

Bookwormjillk Great pic. Also Laura calling out the fact that Walt and Marian make a better couple. Even she knows. Seems cruel to make her think she's making money with those drawings though. 1mo

BarkingMadRead @Bookwormjillk I feel like this could bite them in the butt 1mo

Bookwormjillk @BarkingMadRead yup 1mo

mcctrish Everyone knows Walt and Marian belong together! 🤣if only she wasn‘t so ugly ☹️ The #manofaction really is an evil mastermind, Marian and Laura know #countporkchop needs to be stopped 1mo

Clare-Dragonfly I am growing stronger in my belief that #percypig isn‘t really who he says he is! If he was born abroad it would be pretty easy to fake—either he switched places with the real Glyde child, or there was no real one, or he‘s illegitimate and just pretended to be legit when he came back. But how does Mrs. Catherick know his secret? And who is Anne‘s father? And could Mrs. Catherick not really be her mother? So many mysteries! 1mo

Clare-Dragonfly @Bookwormjillk Yeah, I really don‘t like that they‘re lying to her about that ☹️ You‘d think they could have come up with some real work for her to do. 1mo

ElizaMarie Hmm.. I am confused about the ages here. Is Anne young and #PercyPig old enough to be her father? What if #CountPorkChop is the daddy? No, that wouldn't be it. Maybe the who #WhoIStheDaddy is a #RedHerring. This is 1/2 Telenovela 1/2 Jerry Springer 1/2 Maury (ha!) - You are NOT the father! 1mo

Ruthiella @Bookwormjillk @BarkingMadRead Maybe they are the perfect Victoria thruple. 😱😂 (edited) 1mo

Leftcoastzen Interesting reading but I need to find out the secret! 1mo

Ruthiella @ElizaMarie I think Percy is at least 15 years older than Ann or Laura. So he could be the father. But as Walt surmises, that seems unlikely based on his and Mrs. Catherick‘s behavior. 1mo

BarbaraJean @Ruthiella Me too!! The only parts I remember vividly from my first reading are Walt‘s exclamation of “the lady is ugly!” and Dear Uncle‘s parentheticals. I do NOT remember The Secret that is so central to the plot… 🤦🏻‍♀️ 1mo

Ruthiella @BarbaraJean What I remembered was the barest outline of the plot and the charming but dangerous Count Fosco. His was the only character name I remembered. 😂 1mo

BarbaraJean @Ruthiella The Count is pretty memorable! I never trusted #countporkchop on this reading, but I don't know if that's my memory or just that he's clearly dangerous from the beginning. When I correctly anticipate plot points, I'm never quite sure whether I'm picking up the clues Collins is giving us, or if I'm just remembering it from before and not realizing that I remember it. 😂 1mo

Marctgore I genuinely enjoyed it. I've been thinking about adapting your story into my comic style, and I would be thrilled to bring it to life in that format. I believe you'll be pleased with the results, and perhaps you'd even consider sharing it once it's done.

mcctrish What. The. Hell. 1mo

Leftcoastzen Maybe one of those poisons that makes you seem dead but you are not ? I went through all the stages of grief. He would get the money but it probably be worth it to be rid of him . 1mo

BarkingMadRead @Leftcoastzen I wondered the same thing, I can‘t wait to see what happens next! 1mo

dabbe I recall #porkchop hinting to #percypig that he had a plan re: the likeness between Anne and Laura. This must be it. Anne's the one with the heart problem, so Anne's the one who died at #porkchop's place. Laura has to be the one alive and the one that Walter met in the cemetery with Marian. Now we need to fill in how she got there. @Bookwormjillk: #soapoperaindeed

I feel like I'm playing CLUE: Laura is in the library with the wrench .... 🤣 1mo

dabbe Just read this from good ol' Wikipedia; it definitely confirms the soap-operaness of this novel! 🤩
“Collins's works were classified at the time as sensation novels, a genre that became the precursor to detective and suspense fiction. He also wrote penetratingly on the plight of women and on the social and domestic issues of his time.“ 1mo

BarkingMadRead @dabbe for real! Total telenovella, this is CLUE, the movie 🤣 1mo
