Status Updates From The Beresfords

Oh, just KISS already!



Why can't you two idiots see that you're in love with each other???

Seriously, Frannie, Jonathan! Tom is literally telling you to get married and you're all, "He's such a dickhead, wah!"

Guys, the man's got a point! Take his advice!

Literally Frannie's hair:



Also, Jon, you are an idiot.

Caroline, you sort of suck.

Eric, get lost.

Tom and Marcy, you guys have a serious drinking problem, but I love you.

"Shushing of Tom, who was inclined to be loud and musical when he had too much to drink"

Why are all of Frannie's comments about Tom Beresford so hysterically funny?

Also, I know she loves Jonathan, and I'm all about Fanny/Edmund, but her constant inner monologue comments about Tom are starting to make me ship them...

"Well, that could hardly be a burglar, since Tom neglected to mention being on a first name basis with them"

-- fourteen years old Frannie Price.



God, I love first-person 1980s Fanny! She's hilarious.

Aunt Terri and Julie Beresford:

Frannie, when Johnathan walks into a room:



(Lol, I'm sorry, that was terrible, but I couldn't resist)

My reaction to Eric and Rachel doing it in the woods:



Also, I kind of really hate Caroline. I'm usually less harsh on the "Mary" character than I am the "Henry" one, but I kind of dislike them equally so far in this version.

Wow, Tammy is quite a bit smarter than I was taking her for!

But this is still basically her about Caroline:

Poor Frannie, though. She finally opens up to someone and accidentally reveals her crush on her step-cousin in the process. That's gotta suck.

Tom to Frannie on page 39:

Tammy, pretty much:



God, this WOULD be a modern day Edmund Bertram's first girlfriend while seventh grade Fanny Price angsted and watched would it? Why does this feel so creepily right? Lol.

"If Tammy ever predicted Tom was up to something unsavory, it wasn't like she was Nostradamus"
