BarkingMadRead @peanutnine #obviously 🤷🏻‍♀️ this is usually the point where I would binge read the end, but I feel like I still wouldn‘t know anything, so why bother 🤣 @Bookwormjillk #hallelujah 2mo

TheAromaofBooks I gotta be honest, I freaking love Annette and her complete inability to keep a secret 😂 2mo

BarkingMadRead @TheAromaofBooks without Annette, we wouldn‘t know a damn thing 🤣 2mo

Clare-Dragonfly There doesn‘t seem to be much acknowledgement that Annette‘s husband has disappeared! 2mo

Clare-Dragonfly Linguistic note: I see that Annette has switched from calling Emily “mamselle” to “madam”! This matches up with something I noted in the book I just finished—in English, Mrs was for a long time just a title of respect for an adult woman of a certain class, even if she wasn‘t married. The Mrs versus Miss for marital status distinction wasn‘t solidified until the mid-19th century. Emily is probably Madam now that she‘s inherited.
