Bookwormjillk And they all lived happily ever after…except there are ten chapters left. #ruhrohindeed 7h
Clare-Dragonfly Tom is *not* going to like this. I‘m not sure Maggie will, either, if she learns it‘s theoretically toward the project of Phil marrying her. It seems manipulative. (edited) 2h
Leftcoastzen Folly ! I think Maggie won‘t want Phil she wants #toxicsteve 2h

Bookwormjillk What a mess 2d
AllDebooks Honestly, what is up with this guy? Stephen gives me the heebie jeebies #shudders 2d
Clare-Dragonfly @mcctrish Hahaha, totally! Also, like, is this guy really going to be this important in Maggie‘s life?! He didn‘t show up until 75% of the way through the book! 2d
mcctrish @Clare-Dragonfly who actually knows with the randomness happening here 2d
ElizaMarie @mcctrish everything you said!!!! 2d
Leftcoastzen I think there‘s gonna be trouble! But I always think that !😄 2d

mcctrish I mean it is called the mill on the floss for a reason I guess #whatgoesaroundcomesaround #tomhasabeeinhisbonnet 3d
Bookwormjillk Uncle D is so full of himself. NOW he wants to claim Tom. (Who, for the record, I am still mad at.) 3d
ElizaMarie @BookwormJillK I agree! I am so ugh with/at Tom. 3d
julieclair I have just been wondering if there are any characters in this book I haven‘t been annoyed with at some point. Maybe Lucy? And Bob. 3d

mcctrish It went better than I thought but does Tom have to make Maggie cry every time they meet 4d
BarkingMadRead @mcctrish I feel like he gets off on it, like he‘s not happy unless he can make someone else sad 4d

mcctrish Poor Tom is surrounded by fuck ups 🤣🤣🤣 4d
dabbe I may be giving an unpopular opinion here, but I think Tom nailed some of Maggie's worst traits--even though he was a dick about it as usual. Maggie's overwrought passions are going to get her into trouble--IMHO. 4d
BarkingMadRead @dabbe he‘s 💯 correct. With zero tact 🤣 4d
KAO All in all, it still seems a shame that Tom and Maggie don‘t have a more mutually supportive relationship. It would be a bit of comfort for them in these trying times! #admittedlypollyanna-ish (edited) 4d
Bookwormjillk Usually I like one of the kids over the other but they both were annoying in this chapter. 4d
Clare-Dragonfly I don‘t really see how Maggie got “Tom is in love with Lucy” from what Bob said but I‘ll go with it! Will the couples reconfigure leaving poor Philip alone? Also, did you notice that Bob‘s wife is short?! As a short person I was very amused 😂 4d
Leftcoastzen Yes , I wish Tom & Maggie were closer , he‘s always pretty harsh but agree with @dabbe he points out traits in Maggie that could lead to issues! 4d
ElizaMarie Tom has some points but he is such a jerk about it. He is cruel to Magggie, I feel like it just shows how immature he is. 4d
julieclair I totally missed that Tom was in love with Lucy. 3d

Ruthiella Honestly, the sub title of this novel should be “This Can‘t End Well”! 😬 (edited) 6d

ElizaMarie 👀 6d
julieclair @Ruthiella 😂😂Truth! Honestly, I‘m going to be so upset if he comes between Maggie and Lucy. 6d
Leftcoastzen Lots of drama could be coming up! 6d
Leftcoastzen I liked the fact that Maggie was direct about her sewing skills . She needed money , not just needlework projects for after dinner. 6d
dabbe I could just feel the electricity between those two! And Lucy just sitting there being so pretty and hoping they like each other. #oy! This can't be good, can it? And now Phil's going to come over, too? #doubleoy 6d

mcctrish I‘m glad Tom saved the day but I still can‘t stand him. I thought he‘d snuck the money in the tin. If the debts are paid doesn‘t #techytully still need a job? 1w
BarkingMadRead @mcctrish you would think! That part confused me a bit, maybe it was just excitement 1w

mcctrish @BarkingMadRead he‘s a bit rash when it comes to #snakywakey 1w
Ruthiella @mcctrish I thought too Tom would sneak the money in to the tin. And for sure, even if the debts are paid, both he and Mr. T. have to work ie, stay at the Mill or find somewhere else. So this is all very performative. 1w
mcctrish @Ruthiella right! Doesn‘t their house come with running the mill? So his debts are paid and he leaves his job and now he‘s homeless too? Mrs Tulliver is going to lose her shit! #firsttheteapotsnowthehouse (edited) 1w
eeclayton It felt to me like Tom wasn't saving the family to save the family but to bask in the glory 🫤 1w
Clare-Dragonfly I am worried now that Tom has made this big announcement but doesn‘t literally have the money that something will happen to prevent them from getting it 😬 1w
julieclair @mcctrish I had forgotten about the house being tied to the mill. Ugh…. this can‘t end well. 1w
mcctrish @eeclayton absolutely true 1w
mcctrish @Clare-Dragonfly same ( and if it was just him I‘d be cheering that plot twist on) 1w
ElizaMarie I think I had misunderstood, I had assumed they would continue to work (maybe try to buy the mill back), but that they are celebrating being in the black now. Like when we do laundry --- #LaundryIsForever :) But I agree @Eeclayton - It felt like it was just Tom being #LookWhoIsTheBest ! Since he is so full of himself! 1w

mcctrish It happened faster than I thought #maggiespeaksthetruth I wonder if Tom will actually hear and understand Maggie‘s words later on? How he is inherently mean? I pity any girl he sets his eye on ( I don‘t think Tom is wrong though that #techytully being upset with Phil and Mags would be nothing compared to #snakywakey ‘s response or how compromised Mags would be if it was known she was meeting up with a boy) 1w
TheAromaofBooks @mcctrish - That's the thing, Tom wasn't 100% wrong; I think he was actually right about a lot of what he said, but wowsers he sure is one self-satisfied, obnoxious kid. Such an uncomplicated conscience - if I do it, it's right; if I don't do it, it's wrong 😂 Poor Maggie. I was glad that she at least put the vow into her own words! 1w

Ruthiella Tom could have been more compassionate, for sure. I did like how Maggie told him off-even though it will not soak in-he is so sure of his own correctness. 1w
Bookwormjillk Yeah I was liking Tom for a while but today I was team #ShutUpTom 1w
dabbe I couldn't help but also notice that this chapter ends with Maggie actually being a wee bit glad that the secret is out in the open and that she can't see Phil anymore. Maybe she loved him but not enough. And Tom, well, maybe a new hashtag: #tommytemper? #oy
1w
Leftcoastzen Tom is so overbearing, he feels he‘s the only thing holding it all together.Poor Maggie has so few privileges or prospects because of the situation.I think she loved talking with Phil & having a little secret.Like @dabbe I think she felt relieved. She doesn‘t care for Phil enough 1w
ElizaMarie @TheAromaofBooks yes!!!! Its a whole #IAmTheONlLYRightPerson in all scenarios thing with Tom. Ugh #TomTheSelfRighteous 1w

TheAromaofBooks This chapter made me sad because it doesn't seem like there is any way that this is actually going to end up being a happy situation 2w
Ruthiella @TheAromaofBooks I share your trepidation! I feel like a cloud is hanging over everyone…lightning is coming…😬 2w

Clare-Dragonfly Sheesh, all these things they can‘t do because it would make Tom or #tetchytully mad! 2w
mcctrish @Clare-Dragonfly I‘m not sure #snakeywakey would approve either but getting them together would solve everything #gettheteapotsback 2w
ElizaMarie @TheAromaOfBooks I also thought this chapter was so sad. It sucks that Maggie and Phillip can't live their lives without their families being all butt hurt. Very #RomeoAndJuliet vibes here. Also poor girl #MaggieREAD please girl, go back to books! 2w
Leftcoastzen Made me sad too. Maggie is painfully aware of her diminished station in life ,trying to muddle through. A cloud hanging over everything, so true. Every relationship is tainted by the drama of the past. 2w
julieclair @mcctrish You are seriously cracking me up with your #TeapotCrusade ! 😂😂😆😘 2w
