Bookwormjillk @TheBookHippie 🤣😂🤣😂 8mo
Bookwormjillk Also do we know where Joss is? 8mo
dabbe Holy guacamole, Batman! Chapter 47 was the most BORING chapter I have read in a long time. Just so we get that Lord Steyne is a jerk and his son is locked up? We're at the point now where I just want Thakeray to finish the plots on our characters, especially Dobbin and Amelia. Sheesh! 🥱 8mo
BarkingMadRead @mcctrish there‘s gotta be some hanky panky i would think, otherwise why give her allllll that money?!? 8mo
Cuilin Tom Eaves could write his own gossip column. As for Becky and Styne. Something‘s about to happen there. And the jewelry from Pitt!! 8mo
willaful Poor Lady Jane -- only the second nice character in the book, other than the kids I guess, and she's being screwed over by Becky. On the other hand, #jointheparty. :-\

Anyone else wondering if poor Rawden might not even be the father of his kid?
8mo
AnnR @willaful - I hadn't considered Rawden might not be the father but now that you mention it. Hmmm.... She really is one of the most horribly selfish and manipulative female characters I've encountered in a book. Right up there with Scarlett O'Hara and Undine Spragg in 8mo
Bookwormjillk @dabbe yes!!! So boring. I actually listened to it twice and still don‘t know what happened. 8mo
Daisey @dabbe @Bookwormjillk So glad I wasn‘t the only one completely bored by that chapter to the point of not absorbing any information. 8mo
TheAromaofBooks I skimmed most of that chapter. I just kept thinking... how is any of this remotely relevant?! Who are these people??? @dabbe @Bookwormjillk @Daisey 8mo
dabbe @Bookwormjillk I had to read the Shmoop summary to get the gist of it! 🤣🤣🤣 8mo
dabbe @TheAromaofBooks Exactly! I kept thinking, “Get to Becky, Amelia, Dobbin, somebody I know!“ 🤣🤣🤣 8mo
willaful @TheAromaofBooks Same! I decided to consider myself creating a “good parts version“ like with The Princess Bride. 😂 8mo
TheAromaofBooks @willaful - I like the way you're thinking! If only I had a kindly grandfather reading me this book and skipping all the boring bits! 😂 8mo
willaful @TheAromaofBooks can you imagine how shocked poor grandpa would be though?! 8mo
TheAromaofBooks @willaful - True, he may be more inclined to skip the interesting bits! 😂 8mo

Ch 45-46: y‘all. I searched for Georgy pics and these came up 🤣 I feel like he is more like Louis though! #anyway #beckyisstillhorrid #ameliaisoffendedbyosbornesoffer #but #iworrythatnowshewillgivein #herparentssuck #wheresdobbin #DOBBIN #pemberlittens #hashtagbrigade

Bookwormjillk Mad at Emmy's parents. What's wrong with them?? 8mo
TheAromaofBooks I couldn't believe how nasty Amelia's mother was today!! 8mo

BarkingMadRead @TheAromaofBooks @Bookwormjillk ugh! Right?!? She is NOT responsible for her father‘s poor choices! 8mo
dabbe The last we saw Dobbin he was practically running all the way from India to England. Where the heck is he? And it's getting worse seeing how much Amelia vicariously lives through George. This can't end well, can it? 8mo
Cuilin @Dabbe The Sedley‘s money issues always seem to affect Amelia. I feel she‘ll give up George and I agree that can‘t be good? What is Dobbin going to do about it? 8mo
Daisey @dabbe Yes! I kind of hate how this story jumps from character to character when I really want to know more. We went from Dobbin determined to come back to it feeling like time was passing with no more mention of him. Guess I‘ll just have to wait and see, but I‘m definitely nervous about Amelia‘s choices. 8mo
dabbe @Daisey As long as this book is, Thackeray is good at the ol' cliffhangers! 🤩 8mo
