willaful I don't think I care much about Julia making a stupid mistake, she's kind of a horrible person. 3d
BarkingMadRead @willaful yeah, I‘m not a big a fan either. I thought she was fun at first, but not so much anymore! 3d

Cuilin Oh Sebastian, 😔 I love how Charles is unbothered by Lady M‘s disappointment in him. (edited) 3d
willaful The whole family is so toxic, even Cordelia at times. Though that's from her upbringing and she's sweet enough that she might overcome it.

lil1inblue The discomfort in this chapter was palpable! Oof! 3d
Cuilin @lil1inblue Yes, that‘s a really good way of putting it. I‘m not a fan of Lady M. 3d
Bookwormjillk Ooof the fun is over. 3d
mcctrish The money is all gone - oof 3d
Clare-Dragonfly Is Brideshead‘s first name actually Brideshead?! I thought he was Lord Brideshead but probably has a real first name and the last name Flyte like Sebastian (you know, like George Gordon, Lord Byron)… but even his mom calls him “Bridey.” 3d
Clare-Dragonfly @willaful I‘d have hope for Cordelia if she were to be spirited away to some other family. 3d
ElizaMarie EESH this family is A LOT! I‘d be drinking all the time too!!! 3d
Ruthiella @Clare-Dragonfly Bridey does have a Christian name. Brideshead is just the title and Bridey his nickname. But the book never reveals what it is. 3d
BarbaraJean I‘ve been catching up and discovered today that my copy combines Book I and Book II (chapters 1-8) and therefore Book III has become Book II (chapters 1-5). As if I wasn‘t confused enough already by falling behind 🥴 Also I miss Aloysius. 🧸 2d
BarkingMadRead @BarbaraJean would it help if I started off with the chapter title? Aaaand I‘m just now realizing those are only in my table of contents (edited) 1d
BarbaraJean @BarkingMadRead Yeah, I don‘t have chapter titles at all 😆 I‘m planning to read the last two chapters in my Book I / your Book II today, which will put me back on track with the group and should help with the clarity! It‘s just such an odd difference to have between editions (and makes me suspicious of mine!) (edited) 1d
BarkingMadRead @BarbaraJean yes! We finish our book 2 today! So crazy that yours is so different! 1d
