mcctrish What. The. Hell. 2mo
Leftcoastzen Maybe one of those poisons that makes you seem dead but you are not ? I went through all the stages of grief. He would get the money but it probably be worth it to be rid of him . 2mo
BarkingMadRead @Leftcoastzen I wondered the same thing, I can‘t wait to see what happens next! 2mo
dabbe I recall #porkchop hinting to #percypig that he had a plan re: the likeness between Anne and Laura. This must be it. Anne's the one with the heart problem, so Anne's the one who died at #porkchop's place. Laura has to be the one alive and the one that Walter met in the cemetery with Marian. Now we need to fill in how she got there. @Bookwormjillk: #soapoperaindeed

I feel like I'm playing CLUE: Laura is in the library with the wrench .... 🤣

dabbe Just read this from good ol' Wikipedia; it definitely confirms the soap-operaness of this novel! 🤩
“Collins's works were classified at the time as sensation novels, a genre that became the precursor to detective and suspense fiction. He also wrote penetratingly on the plight of women and on the social and domestic issues of his time.“

BarkingMadRead @dabbe for real! Total telenovella, this is CLUE, the movie 🤣 2mo
Bookwormjillk @dabbe ohhhh good theory. And the flowers did something right? Pork Chop did it in the bedroom with the bouquet. 2mo
dabbe @BarkingMadRead Circa 1860s. 🤩🤣🤩 2mo
Clare-Dragonfly Twin switch! I knew it!!!! @dabbe That‘s exactly how I think it went! (edited) 2mo
Clare-Dragonfly I love the inclusion of “the narrative of the tombstone.” So dramatic! So fitting for the way the novel is told! So unexpected! 2mo
Bookwormjillk @Clare-Dragonfly yes the tombstone part was A+ 2mo
KAO I did not see that coming!! (But in retrospect probably should have!) 2mo
julieclair I've never thought of flowers as a murder weapon, lol. (Except maybe when consumed as poison.) 💐☠️ 2mo
BarkingMadRead @julieclair when I think of flowers I think of Carol on the walking dead #lookattheflowers 2mo
