Age of Innocence | Edith Wharton

Cuilin To be in that society sounds exhausting!!!! Also if you were a performer can you imagine how distracting it would be with everybody just showing up and leaving whenever. And owning a house in Manhattan big enough to have a ballroom is hard to imagine today. 1mo
mcctrish @Cuilin it‘s almost exhausting to read about society - did Archer and #winoforever ‘s cousin have a relationship? 1mo

Ruthiella It does sound exhausting and performative. I read this years ago and saw the movie when it came out. I remember the basic outline of the plot but none of these details. 1mo
JacqMac It doesn‘t just sound exhausting, but also uncomfortable. 1mo
JenlovesJT47 Yay I‘m caught up! 1mo
Bookwormjillk New flex is hosting a ball but going to the opera instead of helping my staff get ready 1mo
Clare-Dragonfly @Bookwormjillk But only, like, one scene of the opera. 1mo
ElizaMarie @Cullin that‘s what I was thinking too- they are horrible audience members! 1mo
julieclair @Cuilin @ElizaMarie It seems like the opera was only an excuse to see and be seen, and then gossip about whom you saw and who saw you. So disrespectful to the performers. But I don‘t think these people worried much about disrespecting people who were “beneath” them. 1mo
Cuilin @julieclair @ElizaMarie yes, they probably see performers as some form of servant existing to cater to them. Ugh 1mo

AllDebooks It was such a quick proposal. Talk about a 'you'll do' attitude. 😅 3mo
Cuilin Marry in haste, repent at leisure. I‘m not sure this is all going work out. 3mo

mcctrish @Cuilin you said it!!!! Roger is a star ⭐️ #gettingcinderellavibes 3mo
willaful Ugh, he doesn't know DIDDLY about her actual character! At least we don't have to call her Clare anymore. #UghHyacinth

Roger is a sweetheart. I'm kind of irritated by Molly, but I tend to hate gooey father-daughter relationships. It's not really her fault she's been spoiled.
(edited) 3mo
Bklover @willaful I‘m with you on the gooey relationship with Dad. And Dad appears to be an idiot! It‘s not like he‘s poor and marrying for money! 3mo
willaful @Bklover It's hypocritical of me because I have a gooey mother-daughter relationship, lol. 3mo
Bklover @willaful Me too!!! 3mo
willaful @Bklover 😂 😂 😂 💝 3mo
LiteraryChanteuse Great book, great mini series. 😊 3mo
Ruthiella This is not a good match! 😱 3mo
Lcsmcat @Cuilin 😂🤣😂 So true! 3mo
ElizaMarie That proposal sucked! 3mo
Bookwormjillk I feel like Hyacinth is such a passive aggressive thing to name a character you don‘t like. No offense to any Hyacinths out there. 3mo
julieclair Oh Gibson, Gibson…. SUCH a bad idea. Why didn‘t you ask us first? We‘d have told you not to do it. 😵‍💫 3mo
rubyslippersreads @Bookwormjillk The only Hyacinth I can think of is Hyacinth Bucket. 😆 3mo

mcctrish Despite being long, and fainting at critical points where creepers are involved 🤦🏻‍♀️ #forfuckssakeemily this chapter has accomplished more than the entire book to day #praisebe also thank goodness ludacris checked under the saddle so E could buy a hat 9mo

BarkingMadRead @mcctrish omg the freaking hat 🙄 #priorities 9mo
Clare-Dragonfly That‘s why I called him Ludo in the first place 😂😂😂 9mo
Clare-Dragonfly And yeah, as soon as the guy wouldn‘t tell Ludo his name, I knew it wasn‘t going to be V. 9mo
Bookwormjillk I was a bit shocked it wasn‘t V myself. But then again we still have many chapters to go. 9mo
Bklover I wonder where V is? Maybe he‘s moved on! (I sure hope not after all this) 9mo
peanutnine I had a feeling the creeper wasn't V cause he would have already admitted it to Emily, he was always really frank about his stalker tendencies lol 9mo
mcctrish @Bklover he‘s still partying in Paris 9mo
julieclair @mcctrish I sure do hope you‘re wrong about partying in Paris, but my gut tells me you‘re right. 😒 9mo

Nessavamusic Thanks for playing! You get points for posting and when people like your posts and when you comment on others. 3y
BkClubCare Yeah, so they say. 🫣 (I spent a few months “chasing”points, commenting/posting/stacking etc and then a few months doing barely nothing and didn‘t really see much difference 😂 (edited) 3y
BkClubCare @Nessavamusic - and this is very generous; you have a giving heart ❤️ 3y

This book takes too long to get going and all the talking to the reader stuff and sugar-sentimentality is grating. But chapter 58 is fun and I wrote down a few quotes. And… I admit, my waterworks 💦 kicked in and I might have gotten damp eyes. #whatever #HEA with suicide talk?! I feel played but it is so dang earnest. Too long, could be edited; but maybe not. Dang it! #bookclub #EstherAssisting #HardCover #Library

BkClubCare So-so to OK, 13th book for October 👻 4y
