Ruthiella OMG, the second kiss. 🥰 I had forgotten it. 9mo

Cuilin When it gets a little autobiographical “Even men might suffer from unexplained desires, and need help.” Oh Forster 😔 9mo

Cuilin Also apparently the Weald is beautiful or is it George? 9mo

mcctrish @Cuilin 🤣🤣 George is getting quite forward with his kiss stealing ( is Miss Bartlett acting all nuts because she‘s already read this bodice ripper of Miss Lavish‘s ?) (edited) 9mo

julieclair George is so bold! The kiss! 😍 #DitchCecil 9mo

TheBookHippie @mcctrish BODICE RIPPER 💀 9mo

TheBookHippie @Cuilin 😝 and need help 😵‍💫😵‍💫 9mo

mcctrish @TheBookHippie it doesn‘t take much for Charlotte 🤣🤣 9mo

TheBookHippie It‘s very nice of you to put up a pic of my hair style in 1993 😅 9mo

TheBookHippie The kiss stealing is life. 9mo

BarkingMadRead @Cuilin I think it‘s George 😍 9mo

TheBookHippie @mcctrish it is the exact phrasing my mind was hunting for while reading!!! 9mo

Crinoline_Laphroaig That hair!😍 9mo

Cuilin @mcctrish Charlotte knows!! 9mo

Cuilin @TheBookHippie He was gay and had lovers but of course couldn‘t be very public about it. “ unexplained desires” I find it interesting when self disclosure finds an outlet or slips in a novel. 9mo

Clare-Dragonfly Cecil is insufferable. @Cuilin Very interesting, I didn‘t know that! 9mo

dabbe Oh, these characters and their drama! I love it! 🤩🤣😀 9mo

Bklover @Cuilin I didn‘t know that! 9mo

Bklover George is becoming quite the kisser! 9mo

mcctrish Also Cecil “when you think of me, where am I?” Lucy #inaroomwithoutaview 10mo

dabbe Instead of being on the end of the kite-string of Charlotte, she'll be on the end of Cecil's. Guess his last name says it all: Vys-->Vice. #runlucyrun 10mo

Cuilin #whatreallyhappenedinRome? #whyshesayYes #CecilbadKisser #cringe 10mo

Crinoline_Laphroaig That kiss is so cringe and sus. 🤢 10mo

Clare-Dragonfly Umm, Cecil, has anyone ever mentioned to you that you‘re supposed to LIKE the person you‘re marrying? And she‘s supposed to like you, so maybe stop insulting her and her family? 10mo

Bookwormjillk Cecil yuck. And also beware of canaries 🐤🐦🐤🐦🐤🐦 10mo

dabbe Class distinctions here, class distinctions there, class distinctions everywhere! Gee, why does Lucy see you only in a room without a view, Cecil? And we all know what Lucy yearns for--a room WITH a view--if only she can cut the proverbial strings! Mr. Bebe knows this: “If Miss Honeychurch ever takes to live as she plays, it will be very exciting both for us and for her.“ That's what we're waiting for, right? #teamgeorge #georgeandlucy #byececil 10mo

Bklover @dabbe Exactly! I can‘t stand Cecil, and I‘m getting quite annoyed at Lucy too! 10mo

julieclair Wake up, Lucy! #inaroomwithoutaview is your future of you marry #CecilbadKisser . #ditchCecil 10mo

Crinoline_Laphroaig I'm a chapter behind but #CecilIsSoObviouslyGay. 10mo

Chapter 8: ew. I can‘t. Apparently, neither can anyone else 🤣 #whyyyyyyy #threetimesshouldnotbethecharm #whysotheyskipaheadsomuch #imsoirritated #freddyishysterical #listentofreddy #freddyknowsall #justsayno #whatcouldgowrong #GEORGEwhereareyou #pemberlittens #hashtagbrigade

Morr_Books So I haven't seen the movie in years. Is that what the fiancé looks like in the movie version? #ewwww 10mo

BarkingMadRead @Morr_Books this is what came up when I googled him, so I guess so! 10mo

BarkingMadRead @Morr_Books I just checked IMDb and this is the Cecil in the HBC version 10mo

Ruthiella @Morr_Books That‘s him! Daniel Day Lewis. He played the prig Cecil Vyse to perfection. 😃 10mo

Morr_Books @BarkingMadRead I'm guessing whoever did the casting for that production felt the same way some of us did about not wanting any of that Cecil character. 10mo

Morr_Books @Ruthiella That is Daniel Day Lewis???!!! 🤯 10mo

TheBookHippie 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮 10mo

mcctrish I seriously thought I‘d screwed up my kindle 😡 #whereisgeorge #freddyisawesome #morefreddynocecil #whatthehellislucythinking 10mo

Bklover I thought I was reading the wrong book. Or the wrong chapter. The whole chapter was just wrong wrong wrong. We are supposed to be in Rome and George is supposed to be finding her and sweeping her away!!! And what rock did Cecil crawl out from under 🪨 (edited) 10mo

BarkingMadRead @Bklover yes! I was so confused, I kept expecting them to switch back to Rome. WTF?!?! 10mo

Bklover @BarkingMadRead I hope your daughter knows how much fun we have here! (edited) 10mo

BarkingMadRead @Bklover she‘s actually on Litsy, although she rarely posts! @Princess.ofthe.pages 10mo

Ruthiella @Morr_Books As my sister says, “Daniel Day Lewis could put on a hoop skirt and play Scarlett O‘Hara convincingly.” 🤣 10mo

Bklover Went to follow her and I already do! 10mo

Bookwormjillk This chapter was so abrupt. I feel like Rome stolen from us 🤣 10mo

Cuilin #lovefreddy played by a very young and beautiful Robert Graves 10mo

Clare-Dragonfly Lucy thinks she can but I really hope she doesn‘t actually! I was annoyed with George last chapter but now I really, really want him to come back. Also… I‘m so confused 😭 #whydidtheyskipaheadsomuch indeed! 10mo

Clare-Dragonfly @mcctrish I‘m with you! #morefreddynocecil Any book character who leaves bones lying around on the nice furniture is my kind of book character 😂😂😂 10mo

Clare-Dragonfly Also… when Mr. Beebe said Cecil was an “ideal bachelor” like him I so wanted him to mean that they are both gay. But in Cecil‘s case I think he just means that he sucks. But Mr. Beebe doesn‘t suck, so it‘s still unclear. 10mo

mcctrish @Clare-Dragonfly that‘s exactly how I interpreted ‘ideal bachelor‘ 10mo

TheAromaofBooks @Clare-Dragonfly @mcctrish - in the context of also talking about how he was like a Gothic statue “which implies celibacy, just as a Greek statue implies fruition“ - I think it may be more that at the time even more than now, marriage also meant fatherhood, family, responsibility - men were the sole charge of the household finances and major decisions. For different reasons, neither Cecil nor Beebe is particularly the type to take on that burden. 10mo

dabbe @Ruthiella The same DDL who was a stud in THE LAST OF THE MOHICANS? #wtf? (excuse my French). 😀🤣🤩 10mo

julieclair I‘m listening on audio and seriously thought a large chunk of the book had been left out! #whathappenedtorome #whathappenedINrome #ditchcecil 10mo
