BarkingMadRead @Librarybelle thanks 🤣 7mo

dabbe So, Dmitry's off to jail, and we're all pretty sure about who the murderer is, which leads me to ask, How the hell is there still almost half a book to go? 😳😂😃 7mo

CatLass007 Great meme choice! 7mo

BarkingMadRead @dabbe maybe they‘ll wrap up the religion stuff? 🤣 7mo

Bookwormjillk Dmitry what the heck 7mo

currentlyreadinginCO This is why you should always have an attorney!!! 😂😂 7mo

dabbe @BarkingMadRead Oh boy, I'll have to gird my loins if that's the case! 😂 7mo

mcctrish I love how no one ever counted the money but everyone is sure it was a huge amount cuz it looked like it had to be even though no one had ever actually had that much money - “it was 20,000! Have you ever seen 20, 000? Of course! Only it wasn‘t… “ for the love of god #whatashitshow 7mo

Aimeesue @mcctrish Right? Let‘s collect all the rumors and use them as evidence! 😂 7mo

mcctrish @Aimeesue it‘s an absolute gong show 7mo

KAO I have to keep reminding myself that this is not a comedy…but it‘s hard to take some of these passages seriously! 😂 7mo

TheAromaofBooks I was genuinely a big shocked by his “I deserved more“ attitude! What even! He only knew her for like a month!? 10mo

Bklover I‘m curious as to why he brought it up at all, since he seems to want to do something personal with it rather than “spectacular”. 10mo

Ruthiella 740 was lot of money in 1955! He could‘ve done a number of good things with it. 10mo

Deblovestoread I was shocked too! Didn‘t seem normal after such a short acquaintance. 10mo

Aimeesue You really have to love the way he justifies probably needing to spend the money on himself AND blaming it on her 😂 10mo

Bookwormjillk I‘d gladly take 500 pounds. What the heck? And a Mary sighting. Yay! 10mo

rwmg I looked it up. 500 pounds in 1958 would be 14,400 pounds today. Obviously one couldn't do any good with that amount. 10mo

BarkingMadRead @rwmg 🤣🤣🤣 10mo

dabbe And Ransome keeps calling Mary a “fine“ lady. What did go on in that house indeed? And I wonder if he's called RANSOM for a reason. 🤔 10mo

bthegood I wonder if Larry David read Pym - this seems to be a book about nothing - yet it is so beautifully written, so witty, and the characters so real I love it! 10mo

BarkingMadRead @bthegood I have thought the same thing more than once! 10mo

bthegood @BarkingMadRead 😂 😂 10mo

julieclair Is it possible Ransome isn't really a priest? 10mo

BarkingMadRead @julieclair it kind of makes you wonder, right? 10mo

Bookwormjillk The worst 11mo

currentlyreadinginCO Soooo sick of Angel and his excuses! He's mad that Tess isn't the pure simple soul of his agrarian career fantasies bc she's a d'Urberville and he's too worried about his his public perception to even see her as a person, when nothing about her past would have become public anyway 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️ #everythingisangelsfault 11mo

BarkingMadRead @currentlyreadinginCO #everythingisangelsfault gives me life 🤣🤣 11mo

Clare-Dragonfly I have nothing to add. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 Angel Clare. 11mo

Cuilin Purity culture 🤢 11mo

dabbe Angel's actions are 🤬. By asking Izz to go with him to Brazil, he is inviting her undoing and would make her a fallen woman—the same quality that caused him to cast off Tess! To unthinkingly invite Izz to ruin her life is contemptible, hypocritical in the extreme, and disturbingly indifferent to an innocent young woman's unrequited feelings. Then to rescind the invitation, a wise decision—is equally hurtful to Izz. And what he does to Tess ... 🤬 11mo

Bklover @dabbe Well said!🩷🩷💜 11mo

dabbe @Bklover 🤩😃🤗 11mo

quietjenn Seriously, this dude. 😡 11mo

KAO Unbelievable behavior by (He‘s no) Angel!! 11mo

Bluebird Grrrr! 😡🤬🤜 i wanted to reach into the book and throttle Angel. What a hypocrite! Can‘t believe I thought he was a decent guy…. 11mo
