#SummerEndReadathon #RushAThon

My goals for the #20in4 readathon this weekend are to finish the top 3 books to finish up my September goals.

Then I will start on some #Scarathlon (a library book & stories) for Team #SpookyGhostClub & to read my sections for #SundayBuddyRead & #JaneAdjacent with the #Pemberlittens as well as my usual work leadership books section for my Tuesday classes.

Andrew65 Great to have you with us, best of luck 😁 6h

Today‘s library #bookhaul is one for #52Books23 (I only have three left!) and one for #PemberLittens - let‘s do this!

dabbe I LOVED In the Woods; can't wait to read what you think! 🤩 5h
Ruthiella Starting Tana French! Exciting. 4h
ravenlee @dabbe @Ruthiella I‘m kinda hesitant, as it‘s not one of my usual genres, but I‘m going to try. I need something set in Dublin for #52Books23 and nothing on any lists really jumped out at me, so I decided to just jump in. 🤞🏻 4h
dabbe @ravenlee I was impressed with her research and knowledge. It is a mystery, so to speak, but there's so much more. I hope you like it! 4h

Bookwormjillk I guess it‘s refreshing to not have everything come out all neat and tidy, but I guess we still have two chapters for everyone to make up. 17h
AnnR Great pic for today! 🙂 I hope Aziz and Fielding don't end up being frenemies. 15h
willaful Sad chapters. Especially sad seeing someone who can't change his mind when learning his facts are wrong. 11h
Bklover I hope Aziz realizes he‘s being an ass and makes up with Fielding!🙄 8h

My #Scarathlon #TBR for team #SpookyGhostClub

These 20 books are my “A List”- most of them should get read especially the top row which includes our team #BuddyRead #PemberLittens #JaneAdjacent #SundayBuddyRead #TitkesAndTunes & DiverseCozy books that will work with the spooky season. 2nd row are one for review, next in series & library reads. 3rd row are #BOTM & others I‘m trying to get through & the bottom are all stories anthologies. But ⬇️

DebinHawaii …as I‘m a very moody reader, I am posting my B list of another 20 books. I won‘t come close to getting them all read of course, but I want them cued up as the mood strikes. 👻🤷🏻‍♀️📚📚📚👻 2d
Clwojick These all look so good! I have a few of these on my B list 😏 2d
dabbe Aha! 🤩🤩🤩 2d
Branwen These are great choices! 😍 1d

Bookwormjillk Aziz reminds me of my co-worker that decides what‘s going to happen in her head then tries to get me mad about it before it occurs. 3d
BarkingMadRead @Bookwormjillk seriously though! He was mad before he even knew if he had something to be mad about 3d

peanutnine @Bookwormjillk omg lol that's perfect 3d
peanutnine I hate that Adela pulled Fielding away right after everything happened and caused this breach between him and Aziz 3d
AnnR I think Aziz is just mentally damaged by the whole situation and jaded now. In his shoes, it would be hard to know who to trust. 3d
BarkingMadRead @AnnR so true! 3d
Bklover @AnnR That‘s for sure! 3d
Morr_Books @AnnR Agree! 3d
Morr_Books I do not think this story is going to have a happy ending. 3d
dabbe It seems that the rift between Aziz and Fielding is the embodiment of the rift between the English and the people of India. And now I'm afraid that Aziz is going to hate all the English because of what he had to go through. 2d

for @BarkingMadRead
the calendar is set for #hashtagbrigade2024 with the #pemberlittens the tagged title plus Dracula had the most votes, but we are sooo reading Dracula in October! I moved some things around to make it work! All of these titles had at least 5 votes, except one that had 4. The top 2 had 8 each. Remember, my hashtags are often ridiculous and always chapter spoilers! Comment below to get added to the master list, if you haven‘t yet!

#Two4Tuesday

🍁1. The tagged book was one of the most enjoyable books I read in September.

🍁 2. I‘m looking forward to tackling Tess of the D‘Urbervilles this October for #Pemberlittens #Hashtagbrigade I‘ve never read any Hardy before.

Feel like playing? Consider yourself tagged! 😃

TheSpineView Thanks for playing! 4d

Ruthiella I have to say Adela got on my last nerve from the start. 4d
Morr_Books Am I the only one surprised that they didn't ship Adela back to England immediately? Maybe that was the first available boat? 4d

Bookwormjillk @Morr_Books yes that was weird. Must have been the weather. 4d
jenniferw88 @Ruthiella I knew what was coming from the start as it's a re-read - I so wanted my first hashtag about Adela to be #ihateadela, but wanted everyone to discover her toxicity for themselves. 4d
willaful Adela is kind of a perfect Nice White Lady stereotype isn't she. Not because she's malicious, but way too much in her fee fees without noticing what she's doing to others. (edited) 3d
dabbe @jenniferw88 And I might be dense here, but WHY oh WHY did she blame Aziz in the first place? What was her motive? Will we ever know? I'm having a difficult time understanding her and pretty much everyone else's actions in the story. An awkward read for me at best. 3d
Daisey @dabbe I completely get the confusion here. When she‘s talking about the incident at one point she can‘t even clearly say whether anything really happened at all, so why blame someone? I really want more specific answers than the British are colonizers and therefore horrible people. 3d
Ruthiella @jenniferw88 Now we can start a club! #Ihateadela 😂 3d

Ch 27…. Because y‘all. I‘m so sorry, I read chapter 26 last night! The chapter heading was at the very top of a page, and it just sort of ran together 🙄 #anyway #fieldingasksaziznottoaskadelafortoomuchmoney #azizandibothsayhellno #fieldingworriesitwillruinher #umdude #azizisruined #azizwantsanapology #fieldingtellsazizaboutmrsmoore #azizdoesntbelievehim #staytuned #pemberlittens #hashtagbrigade

Bookwormjillk I feel sorry for Aziz and agree he should get paid, but I hate his she‘s too ugly to attack in a cave defense. 5d
AnnR After a little bit of hopefulness, things sound complicated again. Will Aziz be okay? Will Adela? Should Fielding get in the middle of everything? Hmmm.... I'm not sure. Hopefully Ronny will be out of the picture now. They aren't a good match. 5d

BarkingMadRead @Bookwormjillk that frustrated me as well! I get that he‘s upset, but that‘s awful! 5d
TheAromaofBooks I do feel somewhat bad for Adela because I don't think she exactly realized what she was setting off/she was getting so much peer pressure to continue the prosecution even when she tentatively tried to voice doubts. But it also doesn't seem fair for her to just get off without paying anything when Aziz's life has been sent into complete disarray and complications! 4d
Daisey @Bookwormjillk Yes, that excuse was awful and brought him down in my opinion. Yet, she should still have to at least pay his court fees. 4d
willaful Definitely less of a fan of Aziz that I was. :-( But I do agree she owes him for what he's been through. 4d
Morr_Books I agree with what everyone is saying about Aziz. I also really don't know my overall feelings for the Mrs. Moore character. I am not sure I like how upset everyone in the story is about her death when she up and left India, abandoning Aziz, Adela, etc. 4d
