dabbe He creeps me out just like D'Urberville did. 🤢 4mo
ElizaMarie What a garbage human! Loaning money if she promised herself to him!? And not even allow her to pay for her freedom! @mcctrish I agree Doc needs to know 4mo

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 7mo
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. 7mo
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 🤷🏻‍♀️ 7mo
Bklover The illustration is perfect!😂😂 7mo
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?! 7mo
BarkingMadRead @BarbaraJean omg I never noticed that smoke, wtf?!? 7mo
ElizaMarie @BarbaraJean The SMOKE!!! Ha maybe its a “he is full of hot air“ type of reference. 7mo

repost for @BarkingMadRead:

God forbid he uses actual chapters to make our lives easy 🙄 #thisfreakingguy #anyway take a look at how I divided it up and let me know if it doesn‘t work. I can spread out some of the longer sections an extra day. For the multiple day chapters… they are divided into sections, so the numbers at the end are how many sections each day. Hope this makes sense. Drop your thought below #hashtagbrigade we start Saturday

Wilkie Freakin Collins. God forbid he uses actual chapters to make our lives easy 🙄 #thisfreakingguy #anyway take a look at how I divided it up and let me know if this doesn‘t work. I can always spread out some of the longer sections an extra day. For the multiple day chapters… they are divided into sections, so the numbers at the end are how many sections each day. Hope this makes sense. Drop your thought below #hashtagbrigade we start Saturday

Bookwormjillk How dare you Wilkie. 8mo
Librarybelle Wilkie was a strange guy. I‘m happy to go with the consensus of the group. 8mo

Ruthiella Wilkie took a lot of opium. Give him a break. 😂 8mo
Bookwormjillk @Ruthiella well that bodes well 😂 8mo
julieclair I think you‘ve done a brilliant job trying to wrangle dear Wilkie‘s opium-induced non-chapterism into submission! 👍🤪😂 8mo
Bklover I actually followed the plan (I think!). Sounds good to me. Oh, and maybe the opium will make this interesting! 8mo
KathyWheeler Can I be added to this event? I‘ve owned this book for years and would like to get motivated to actually read it! 8mo
kwmg40 Looks good. I'll try to follow as best I can! 8mo
TheAromaofBooks Looks great!! Sooo complicated when a book doesn't have just regular chapters!! 8mo
Clare-Dragonfly Eep! I‘ll do my best to keep up! 😅 8mo
KAO I don‘t really follow. “March 2-4 5 per day”? Isn‘t this 96 pages for the first section divided by 3 days=32 pages per day? What does “5 per day” mean? Edited: Oh!! This must mean five parts labeled with Roman numerals! I see now. (edited) 8mo
KAO I‘m not so sure I‘ll keep up with the rest of the books I have going! I‘ll give it a shot though. 8mo
BarkingMadRead @kao that chapter is split into sections, so it‘s 5 sections of that chapter per day. If I split it into pages, it might have us stopping mid- mini chapter. There are 15 mini chapters (edited) 8mo
CatLass007 Well thank goodness the free Audible copy has the same table of contents. 8mo
BarkingMadRead @catlass007 I had real stress that the different copies would be set up different 🤣#freakingwilkie (edited) 8mo
BarbaraJean This looks good to me! Thank you for divvying up all of Wilkie‘s eclectic “chapters” for us! Of course, I still have to check the TOC in my library ebook copy… because I could have SWORN I owned a copy but it is nowhere to be found. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 8mo
KAO @BarkingMadRead I get it now! I just finished reading sections 1-5 of the first part this morning. I‘m enjoying it so far! 8mo
BarkingMadRead @kao yayyyyyyy 8mo
Clare-Dragonfly Are we starting today (Saturday, March 1) or tomorrow (March 2)? 😅 8mo
BarkingMadRead @Clare-Dragonfly ohhhhhh I said tomorrow, so we are starting tomorrow 🙈 sorry y‘all! 8mo

Librarybelle He‘s such a jerk and has triggered all of my emotions about controlling men and stalkers. Ugh. 1y
Ruthiella @TheBookHippie That‘s how I felt about Tess of the D‘Urbervilles too! WHOOSH! 😡 1y
mcctrish @TheBookHippie @Librarybelle @Ruthiella when he threatened Ruth to meet with him because Leonard‘s well being depended on it and then he got Bradshaw to take him round to see Leonard OMG 😱 (edited) 1y
Librarybelle @mcctrish I know! He‘s the worst! 1y
IndoorDame Who knew it was possible for Bellingshit to continue to drop in my estimation 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 1y
TheBookHippie @mcctrish RIGHT?!?! OMG 1y
TheBookHippie @IndoorDame 🤬🤬🤬 1y
tpixie Pretty 💜💜💜 1y
mcctrish @IndoorDame RIGHT?! What has happened that he‘s gone from being self centred, spoiled, and thoughtless to cruel and vindictive 1y
Cuilin @Librarybelle yes!! I feel triggered. He is despicable. 1y
Aimeesue Sleeze. Bag. Capital SLEEZE. 1y
Clare-Dragonfly I love—in an angry way—how Bellingshit tried to bribe Leonard into liking him and Benson took it as an attempt to buy his vote. It probably never even occurred to Bellingshit that you could buy a man‘s vote by giving a gift to someone he cared about! 1y
Bookwormjillk I just caught up. Oh wow. So much to say about that man. Clueless and threatening all at once. 1y
James263 Hi 1y
jewright Damsons do make the best jelly ever!!! We had a tree when I was a kid. I was hoping he would have grown up a little, but he‘s still terrible. It‘s almost like he knew she would be pregnant, but he thought she might have died. He‘s almost surprised to see her alive and thriving. 1y
dabbe @mcctrish Well, he now has a SON. Nevermind that he's so far illegitimate ... now he'll want HIS son and might take him away from Ruth. I. Can't. Even. #steamsnortingmad 😤😤😤 1y
mcctrish @dabbe it‘s like @IndoorDame said, my mind is blown that Bellingshit is even worse than before 🤯 but I am curious why the name change ? 1y
mcctrish @jewright right? He left her, after he ruined her, how could she have not perished or become a whore on the street ? 1y
julieclair @mcctrish Ditto about the name change. What‘s up with that? 1y
julieclair I so admire Ruth‘s strength and self control. 1y
mcctrish @julieclair probably did some shady shit and needed a new identity 1y
julieclair @mcctrish That makes total, slimy sense. 1y
