mcctrish What just happened? V admits to the debts he could never repay and that he isn‘t worthy of Emily AND is mad that she doesn‘t want to shackle herself to him?! He questions how long the count has been her friend? Meanwhile E has spent about 32 minutes in his actual company and expects her to marry him after whoring and gambling ? RUN AWAY EMILY 8h

Bklover @mcctrish yes! When I think of all the weeping and fainting over V it makes me want to scream. You are right- she doesn‘t even really know him! 8h

mcctrish It‘s nice she had him to focus on while at Udolpho but cut him loose now 8h

Bookwormjillk At first I was kind of on V's side because yeah she just met this Count guy. But then he admitted to it all so bye V. And what is the story of the picture? 5h

BarkingMadRead @Bookwormjillk everyone is crying 🤷🏻‍♀️ 5h

Bookwormjillk @BarkingMadRead I meant the one that Emily's dad had that Dorethee was refusing to talk about. She is just not coming back? 3h

BarkingMadRead @Bookwormjillk ohhhhhhhh that picture! We may never know…. 3h

Clare-Dragonfly V keeps going “I‘m terrible and it‘s exactly like the Count says” except no one actually lays out what Emily or V is thinking. I‘d put money on V‘s actual actions not being as bad as what Emily thinks. Of course, I don‘t know whether he‘ll actually TELL HER that before they both die of old age! now

Listened to the audiobook and greatly enjoyed it. Lots of fantastic details throughout that keep you guessing but then come back together at the end perfectly. I loved the main character and seeing the world through her eyes. Perfect amount of horror and spookiness for someone who doesn‘t like scary books.

I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it (some I‘ve had so long I don‘t even remember why!). Feel free to join in!

mcctrish Honestly! D “I can‘t tell you, you tell me” E “no I can‘t tell you, you tell me” FFS you both can rot! Also V was whoring and gambling! What a chapter! Pagan dancing for the win 1d

AllDebooks If this was published now, it would be a novella once a skilled editor got busy with their red pen 1d

peanutnine "God forbid anyone tells a story immediately" ??? so true. And all these hints to what she saw in the letter, just tell us!!! 1d

Clare-Dragonfly Why the HECK can‘t Emily just say “oh that picture? It was my dad‘s.” It‘s not like she has any more information than that! 1d

TheAromaofBooks Oh man, now I just don't know who Emily is going to marry! All her choices are terrible! I'm kind of leaning towards Henri; at least he hasn't been a stalker yet 😂 1d

Bookwormjillk On one hand this chapter was frustrating because of the non-storytelling but on the other hand at least the picture came back up and V is finally here. On to part 4! #WeAreGettingThere 1d

Bklover @mcctrish 🤣🤣🤣🤣 You nailed it! 20h

I'm reading the Last House on Needless Street and one of the characters is Olivia. And I can't keep thinking about Gallant audiobook and how he says Olivia. So sing songy and creepy!

This week I wanted escape… but couldn‘t. So I caved & opened your gift @AmyG - thank you so much!! I can‘t wait to read this book, the cozy additions are perfect, I love that frame for me & buggy… and I already drank the mocha cocoa .. w/ some marshmallow liqueur 🫢🤤😴 Thank you for this spot of joy!! ♥️♥️

We also had our #reallifebookgroup book exchange & I scored this Picoult! 👏🏼👏🏼

Also spotted: this $400 deco in the wild 😳 (yes, TJX 😜)

AmyG Glad I could make you smile. I figured the frame would be perfect with a picture of your adorable son in it! 😘 1d
