Starting this as my new read-while-working audiobook!

I wonder if this is the old fashioned equivalent of hanging up a poster of your celebrity crush lol

This is an appropriate reaction to someone confiscating Jane Eyre

...I feel like I'm witnessing some proper Mormon kink rn and I can't say I'm into it 😬

I'm listening to this while making tables for work. A bit boring so far, but I have hope it will get better since I like the voice of Emma

Well that was extremely unexpected

Damn, maybe what I want in life is a non-sexist, non-racist Victorian man like Gray

I'm so sad I forgot this book at home so I can't read it during my lunch break :( I'm already so intrigued by the mystery!!!

Bridget, please gain some self-respect. I'm begging you

Good for her!!

While I'm not not on Toros' side, I do like Ana's plan better

That was the easiest escape ever, which makes me suspicious

I once again have nothing to do but am stuck in the office, so I'm reading this! I don't love the writing style but the actual story is interesting

It's really interesting that part of Judy's activism was arguing that disability is part of the aging process when so many people in my field (gerontology; arthritis) argue the exact opposite. I can see why this would be a compelling argument for disability rights though!

I love the sentiment, but I think Judith is being a bit too optimistic about human (child) nature. Either that or I was just an abnormally irritable young child...which checks out lol

Literally the most casual proposal ever

I'm glad that Arabella's dad explicitly doesn't want her marrying her cousin. That's an improvement over the last Heyer book I read lol

I totally forgot about Al and Gregor!

If I didn't know any better, I would think this book was written by a man

I know that it's only the beginning of the book, but am I supposed to like Cameron?

This book is so good but it's really not helping with my mood lol

Taking a little break to read something more uplifting. This book is soooo good but it's also very heavy

I have literally zero work to do but I'm stuck in the office all day :/ At least I have this book to keep me company

I'm basically just formatting tables at work today, so hopefully I can get a lot of (audio)reading done!

I'm so excited Deborah's been introduced! I remember loving her

It's genuinely a kind of hard and triggering to read this ngl

I'm starting to remember the solution of the mystery and just how upsetting it is :(

I'm so annoyed that I actually need to start writing an article today and therefore can't listen to this audiobook while I work lol

I'm reading this book super slowly since it's quite dense, but I'm really enjoying it so far! It's making me realize how little I knew about WWI

Imagining how scared and alone rocky must feel rn is making me tear up 😭 🪨
