mcctrish Lots of describy words is right. Honestly do we even know and like V? It seems like we went zero to 60 with this guy and it‘s only when we can‘t have him that we LLLLOOOVVVEEE him, he‘s been an obsessive from the start #redflag #alertnoisessounding this is giving extreme YA vibes 2d

AllDebooks @mcctrish Regarding V's attention to E, #lovebombed comes to mind 🚩💣🚩 2d

mcctrish @AllDebooks I skip all the sonnets unless they are < 4 lines #justsayno and yes Emily has been #lovebombed between V and her aunt pulling a 180° with her opinions I almost understand why she cries so much, she never gets a moment to process anything (edited) 2d

BarkingMadRead @mcctrish I 💯 skimmed those sonnets 🤣 2d

AllDebooks @BarkingMadRead so did I 😅 2d

Bookwormjillk @BarkingMadRead for sure #LifeIsTooShortToReadBadSonnets 2d

Bklover I get very excited when I see the sonnets because I just zoom on by! Glad I‘m not the only one @AllDebooks @mcctrish @dabbe @BarkingMadRead Oh, and where do they go to relieve themselves while trekking through the mountains?! #noportapottiesinsight (edited) 2d

AllDebooks @BarkingMadRead the u-turns from this aunt are making my head spin! 4d

BarkingMadRead @AllDebooks she‘s exhausting! 4d

mcctrish @AllDebooks I‘ve got whiplash 4d

mcctrish Sigh. Sob. You must go. Wait, listen to this. Sigh. Sob. Don‘t ever forget me. You must forget me. Sigh. Sob. #putafeatherinhishatandcallhimmacaroni 4d

Clare-Dragonfly Definitely saw Marconi forbidding the marriage coming! There is a lot of sighing and fainting in this chapter. There is no way I would be slogging through this book without the #hashtagbrigade! I *will* learn what Catherine Morland gets so excited about! (edited) 3d

Clare-Dragonfly I just realized I got his name wrong in a completely different way 😂 Montoni! 3d

Clare-Dragonfly Also! Doesn‘t Valancourt have a first name? He calls Emily by her name all the time but she doesn‘t use his name in dialogue. Did Radcliffe just not feel like coming up with a first name? 3d

BarkingMadRead @Clare-Dragonfly I don‘t think they‘ve mentioned a first name? I‘m not sure! 3d

dabbe This is the perfect kind of book for me right now. No matter how bad things are or seem to be today, I am quite grateful to not be Emily in the late 1500's with absolutely no money and no say in what she can/can't do in her life. #yikes #andyesshecrieswaytoomuch #scmb 3d

TheAromaofBooks The aunt being like “suck it up or people will judge you for not being able to get over your completely inappropriate boyfriend“ like 48 hours ago you were totally on his team?!?! Geezy 3d

AnishaInkspill yeah the uncle 3d

Bklover And now they‘re both crying. And dear obedient Emily will now be ordered around by Macaroni. 3d

mcctrish This chapter actually worked for me. Auntie makes my head spin with her saying one thing and then taking a 180° 5d

BarkingMadRead @mcctrish auntie has things finally getting interesting! 5d

AllDebooks Finally, something more yhan weeping and walks, walks and weeping! 5d

Ruthiella @AllDebooks Just wait until she starts spontaneously writing sonnets. (edited) 4d

AllDebooks @Ruthiella 😅 4d

CatLass007 Would you please remove me from your tag list for #HashtagBrigade? Everyone is great but I want to cut back on some of my buddy reads. Thanks 😚 4d

Clare-Dragonfly I had a hard time following all the dialogue in this but I got the gist. Specifically that Auntie is a social-climbing moron. 4d

dabbe @Clare-Dragonfly Can I add “bitch“ to your most excellent comment? As in #socialclimbingmoronbitch ... #scmb for short (which could also read as “scumbag“). 😄 4d

BarkingMadRead @dabbe 🤣🤣🤣🤣 4d

Bklover First of all, why does Valencourt keep showing up like a creeper? He always appears from behind a tree or something. Second, Auntie is a scheming witch but at least she‘s interesting- I think she‘s going to be a fun one to hate! 4d

julieclair @Bklover I freely admit I am hating Auntie and enjoying it! As @dabbe says, #scmb . 😂 4d

dabbe @julieclair YES! #scmb You know, it's better just thinking it as “scum“! 🤩😂🤗 4d

Clare-Dragonfly @dabbe Bahahaha, perfect! 😂 4d

ElizaMarie @bklover! Yes!!! Such a #SneakySneak didn‘t we learn he has good breeding? Why are you such a #WeirdoCreeper !? 4d

ElizaMarie Also. I am numb to tears and weeping…. 4d

BarkingMadRead @TheBookHippie totally get it! Do you want me to take you off of the tag list? @Bookwormjillk I just knew it! Yikes! 6d

TheBookHippie @BarkingMadRead oh don‘t do extra work. 😝 6d

rubyslippersreads @TheBookHippie @BarkingMadRead I‘ve bailed too. Too many other books calling my name. But leave me on the tag list; I might check in to see how you‘re all doing. 😁 6d

mcctrish Don‘t forget more crying 😭 😭 also getting Cinderella vibes with the remote room and only the dog for a friend 6d

Bklover @Bookwormjillk @mcctrish I‘m very concerned about the dog! I can‘t believe that witch stuck her in a teeny tiny room. It‘s just guaranteed to make her cry more! 🙄. And I wonder who feeds the dog and takes him potty, etc. Anyway. @BarkingMadRead V still seems creepy to me. 5d

AnishaInkspill I read this last year and finished with a mixed reaction, where I would read this again though it took me 5 months to read it 5d

Clare-Dragonfly @Bklover Oh, I‘m sure they have servants to do that, just like at home! St Aubert died so terribly poor, Emily can only afford to keep one servant at the house she‘s not even living in! How ever will she manage 😂 5d

Bklover Exactly!!!😂🤣😂 5d

ElizaMarie Ha I am curious how old V is. This will help me decide if he is a #Creeper. Also… now the doggie gets to hear her cry more! 5d

julieclair @ElizaMarie Good question about V‘s age! I always assumed he was in his mid-twenties, but he could certainly be much older. Then he‘d be a #Creeper for sure. 4d

See All 16 Comments

AllDebooks This was very frustrating. Spill the T Radclyffe 😕 6d

mcctrish At present I‘d say the mystery is how anyone reads this 6d

AllDebooks @mcctrish so much repetition!! 6d

mcctrish @AllDebooks every time there is a chance of something happening - nope! We see gypsies, ooo what‘s going to happen? Nothing. Dad holding miniature portrait - nothing, papers to read, burn em and nothing 6d

Bookwormjillk @mcctrish 😂😂😂 6d

mcctrish @Bookwormjillk it‘s a lot of words and a lot of crying for nothing 6d

Bookwormjillk @mcctrish I don‘t mind it when the chapters are short, but sometimes I see 23 minutes in the chapter on my kindle and I want to cry right along with her. A lot of people love this book so hopefully something other than dying parents and crying happens soon. 6d

mcctrish @Bookwormjillk I‘m reading on serial and when it says the chapter continues to more than one section I too want to cry 6d

Clare-Dragonfly I can‘t believe it said she read a bit but won‘t tell us what that bit is!!! So unfair. And auntie… she‘s obnoxious but she‘s not wrong about people who look good not necessarily being good. 6d

Bklover I‘m hoping Auntie spices things up a bit! I do think, though, that Auntie is going to cause more crying and fainting. There has to be some excitement coming soon! 6d

eeclayton @mcctrish same! I would never get through this if it wasn't for the #hashtagbrigade ! 6d

eeclayton I was actually proud of Emily for not saying yes to V right away. But this is about the only positive thing I can say about the story so far. 6d

julieclair So. Much. Crying. I switched to audio and it has helped me to enjoy the story more. (Not sure why…) 4d

dabbe Pops also has memories of a woman who is not Emily's mother. And he recognized the name of the person who owned the creepy house/castle/haunt/whatever-the-heck-you-want-to-call-it. Here comes the Gothic! I also vote to add the word “sublime“ to “verdant“ and “verdure“. And am I awful to say that if I see any more scenery, I am going to 🤢?
