The White Robin is cute so far. No complaints at all on this one. No mean-spirited gossips. (The Guardian describes Miss Read's books as having "a little harmless tittle-tattle". I counter that it IS harmful, and shameful, and hateful to be like that. For shame on all of those assholes, breeding discontent and slander! Church-going hypocrites! Ephesians 4:29 would be the focus of my sermon there, given the chance!)

There are only 505 pages. So this makes 3/4 done, or close enough as to make no difference. Alright, 74.2%. I can't be imprecise. XD
74.2% done. I can do this. I've slogged through much worse.

(Why do I never learn? Chocolate before bed is a terrible idea! I should have been asleep an hour ago).

Urgh. 'Village Christmas' hateful and judgy, then mildly redemptive. 'The Fairacre Ghost' - seriously, how much tragedy IS there in any given village?! Are more than half the residents widowed in their youth or what?! DEPRESSING! Also, Job? C'mon - low hanging ironic fruit for that choice of name.
Would Hyacinth Bucket enjoy this book? Idk. I don't especially. Written prettily. Characters are deplorable and dull.

Wrote an essay (but chickened out) against self-righteous "Christians" who JUDGE LIKE THEY SIT ON THE RIGHT HAND OF GOD. Fuuuuuuuck. Extoling good Christian values?!
"The Jarvis girls were first-class sluts, and no mistake!"
FFS, did our Lord and Saviour call Magdalene that?! Or the adulteress?! "LET HE WHO IS WITHOUT SIN CAST THE FIRST STONE.... THEN NEITHER DO I JUDGE YOU." He could've but didn't.
Hypocrites!!

It's like the inbetween scenes of Heartbeat, where nothing much is happening.
This is the second story of three so far where the plot is a child who questions the existence of Santa Claus. And another draughty house with water leaking under windowsills.
Umm. I remain unenchanted.
