Cousin Charles is a little bit of an asshole. I think he's going to try to take whatever money they have. He was a little emotional when he found the gold watch chain in the tree because "it could be worth a good deal of money", and he has already said his father left him nothing.

I feel awful for Merricat, and they way he is treating her. He's a disruption to the small world she's trying to keep safe. The emotional blackmail to get her to like him is infuriating.

Maybe he needs to eat some berries 👀

Already in love with this book. I am a fan of the 2nd person pov, and I enjoy the challenge that comes with being behind the eyes of the character. The theatre description automatically made my brain go to Spirited Away and I can't shake it now 😅

oh my god WHAT IS THAT

Hey all! I’ve been seeing this trend going around on social media, and thought it’d be fun to do on here!!

Mine would be 🤓📻☕

“It was just a joke, Freynan. You’re not going to survive here if you’re too sensitive to take a joke and you’re certainly not going to survive playing against me.”

The sexism is making me so angry! And more so coming from that nepo baby
