mcctrish I just want to acknowledge Jenny, standing up for Bethia who was wrongfully sent to new employment because of Coxe‘s nonsense. And Mr Gibson wishing he could live a life without women. He couldn‘t/wouldnt last a DAY!!!! 1w
BarkingMadRead @mcctrish yessss I forgot poor Bertha and Jenny #boysaredumb 1w
Clare-Dragonfly @mcctrish Yes!!! Poor Bethia didn‘t deserve any consequences other than having the letter taken from her. 1w
julieclair The stage is set for Roger to fall in love with Molly…. 1w
ElizaMarie I loved this sentence- But fate is a cunning hussy, and builds up her plans as imperceptibly as a bird builds her nest; 1w
BarkingMadRead @elizamarie I almost used #fateisacunninghussy as a hashtag… and then I forgot 🙈 1w

mcctrish Molly has no idea what‘s going on but she‘s got to leave because daddio doesn‘t like how this is playing out and he‘s mad he doesn‘t know when Molly needs new clothes I‘m not sure how much I like this man anymore 1w
Bookwormjillk Dad has really done downhill these last few chapters 1w

Lcsmcat I can‘t believe he waited til the last minute to tell her! Maddening! 1w
Clare-Dragonfly Sheesh! What a controlling hypocrite! I suppose I understand his desire to keep Molly close as long as possible but it ain‘t going to work. BTW, I figured one of the apprentices was in love with her, and I‘m relieved it‘s the smart one. 1w
Ruthiella I‘m holding out hope she will fall in love with one of the Squire‘s sons! 🤞 1w
quietjenn Such an overreaction 1w
Bklover Bad Dad. 1w
ElizaMarie Shocked but not shocked by daddy‘s reaction. Of course nobody would be good enooggh. Poor Molly seems to have no clue. 1w
julieclair I was really surprised at the father‘s overreaction. Firing the maid, sending Molly away with no warning, raking Coxe over the coals. Too much. 1w

Bookwormjillk @BarkingMadRead Thomas Hardy nailed it though. I‘m impressed. 2y
Bklover Unbelievable. Just Unbelievable. 🤯. I am starting to love Thomas Hardy though, almost as much as I hate Alec! (edited) 2y
dabbe “I'm sorry I raped you, but now I'm a preacher; oh, now I'm not because you had to up and show your too beautiful face, and now I'm back to being creepy rapist Alec who wants to marry you.“ #wtf 🤬

Is Angel actually going to be an angel and come to her rescue? 🤔 Hmm. #thisishardynotdisney

Librarybelle This is really the part of the book that made me want to throw the book and scream the first time I read this. This time, I kept exclaiming in disgust so loud that the cats gave me odd looks! 😂 In all honesty, I think these strong emotions that are stirred up from this book are why I like it so much. And imagine - a man wrote this! 2y
Clare-Dragonfly Can somebody please punch this guy???? Many times?! 2y
julieclair @Librarybelle You‘re so right. It‘s hard to imagine a man wrote this. And in 1891, no less! I am definitely a Hardy fan. 2y
Daisey I just recently finished Clarissa, and I thought it would be a while before I felt so much disgust with a character. Now, Hardy has me feeling almost the same about two characters. He definitely wrote it well. 2y
currentlyreadinginCO I'm curious about how this all was received in 1891 2y

dabbe @Bookwormjillk All it took was for Fitz to almost bite the dust to get good ol' Mary to come around. 🙄 2y

Bookwormjillk Gross is right 2y
Bookwormjillk Also so out of character for Elizabeth to try and talk G into a marriage she doesn‘t want 2y

BarkingMadRead @Bookwormjillk I thought the same. Elizabeth would never! 2y
mcctrish 🎶another one bites the dust 🎶 2y
Ruthiella His timing couldn‘t have been worse. Sure, he didn‘t know about William, but her cousin is practically on his deathbed! 2y
dabbe Is it just me or does it seem like his rushed “falling in love“ is similar to Kitty's? Being a “man“, though, he gets to take it all the way to a proposal, which is (like everyone has already said) GROSS! 🤢 2y
willaful Well, if Tom goes back to Isabella Thorpe, he'll definitely #GetWhatHeDeserves. 🙄 2y

Ruthiella 😂😂😂 3y
RebelReader What a let down! I was hoping for some fireworks!!! 😕 3y
Bklover I know right!! (Response to hashtags). Plus I am dying for her to just say “DrJohn/Graham, Genevra is a self centered money grabbing superficial twit and you are an idiot.” Then let the quarrel begin!! 3y
BarkingMadRead @Bklover that would have been a much better quarrel! 3y
KristiAhlers @Bklover YES! To all of that! Gah she is the worst (Genevra) 3y
KristiAhlers Yeah I wanted way more from that. Sigh. However if he‘s actively not going to see what and who she is he deserves her. He didn‘t seem so shallow at the beginning of the book. 3y
Clare-Dragonfly @Bklover RIGHT?! I feel like Lucy went about this the worst way possible. She acts like she‘s agreeing with all his praise for Ginevra—at least she doesn‘t argue—and then she goes off and tells him he‘s stupid. Give him specifics so he can recognize them! This way he‘s never going to listen! 3y
suvata @Bklover I couldn‘t have said it better myself. 3y
suvata I think John realizes what Ginevra is all about but, for now, he likes playing her game. I‘m glad that Lucy her feelings off her chest, but I would hardly call that a quarrel. Sheesh 🙄 3y
Bklover @KristiAhlers @Clare-Dragonfly @suvata She drives me nuts! She‘s so passive! (And what is this weird never ending ailment she has?) (edited) 3y
