Will finally start this in a bit

I‘m behind but catching up! I was struck by the truth of this quote. #HashtagBrigade #Shirley

This started off well but I just couldn't get into it fully. The world building wasn't developed enough to make the world make sense. I understand that this was written for children but it leaves you with more questions than answers. I did like Badger though, he was a bit too relatable.

Shirley and Caroline are getting to be friends and have great talks about Yorkshire, nature, poetry, and love...but Shirley will. not. stop bringing up Robert Moore. Girl is fishing and even though I genuinely like her so far, it is so irritating. #MindYourBusinessShirl #GoWhistleAHappyTune #StayFocusedOnYourMill #WhatDoesHisLetterSay #HashtagBrigade

Catching up on #celebrate:
Day 1: Technically the song by Bowie was based on the Orwell book, but who am I to argue with brilliance? A politician who vehemently argues that they not only are not a politician, but would be willing to lock up and if not kill then be complicit In the murder of journalists, political opponents, engaging in regime change, .. icing on the cake? A coup against the US capitol led by someone with a Viking helmet...WWOD?

“I shall not be married, it appears…I suppose, as Robert does not care for me, I shall never have a husband to love, nor little children to take care of. Till lately I had reckoned securely on the duties & affections of wife & mother to occupy my existence...now, I perceive plainly, I may have been mistaken. Probably I shall be an old maid.”
Alas, the trials of being 18—one romantic disappointment = destined for old maid-hood! #HashtagBrigade
