Huh. It‘s going to be like *that* is it? And the first page was going so well…

rockpools @RaeLovesToRead I‘m kind of hoping his character turns around and tells him where to get off. But it was written in 1891, so that might not happen. 2y
RaeLovesToRead Looking forward to the bit where she lands a right hook in his face in a blast of maiden-fury 🤣🤣👊🏻💥 2y

rockpools @RaeLovesToRead perfect! I may need to do some creative rewriting if he keeps this up! 2y
rockpools …although she has just been lectured by a pompous grandfather clock, so it might not be all bad. ?. 2y
Centique Oh dear oh dear …. how did we even navigate from one side of the house to the other with such undeveloped brains! 2y
rockpools @Centique Now choosing to believe that this is deliberate & tongue in cheek. The vacuous girl who lacks all power of thought or reason has just nipped out to rescue two feckless Londoners from certain drowning, with the help of ‘the boy‘ (a white-haired old man). I‘m not sure if it‘s intentional, but it‘s quite funny! The patriarchal nonsense is SO over the top, he can‘t be serious! (If you know otherwise, please don‘t tell me til I finish!) 2y
Centique @rockpools I love it! Nothing like showing the ridiculousness of a stereotype by exaggerating it 😂 2y
