STACEY'S DIFFERENT... AND IT'S HARDER ON HER THAN ANYONE KNOWS
Welcome to the discussion post for week three! Don't panic if you haven't finished The Truth About Stacey yet - we're all in different time zones, so things will be a little bit staggered. The post doesn't have an expiry date on it, so just comment whenever you're ready.
This is the post to discuss your reading of The Truth About Stacey.
What was your favourite part? What was your least favourite part? Any memorable quotes you'd like to share? What had you forgotten about since the last time this book was read? If someone wrote a fic set during the timeline of this fic, what should they write?
There are no mandatory questions or points of discussion for this - anything you want to talk about in relation to this week's book, go ahead!
Next week's book is BSC #4 - Mary Anne Saves the Day.
Stoneybrook's history/construction is *exactly* the sort of rubbish I want to talk about! :D
I also always got the impression that Watson's house is old (for the same reason, good old Ben Brewer), and Mrs Porter's house is apparently this crumbling Victorian mansion. And then the Delaney place sounds like a snazzy new mansion. So yeah, I'm like you -- I think it's a bit of both. I've been playing attention to little geographic details on this read through and it's helping my mental image of Stoneybrook. Like, I think in Kristy's Great Idea, it said that the Pikes lived a few doors down from the Newtons. I didn't know that! But I'm still left with a lot of "???" about the broader things, like Stoneybrook's size.
On a related note, I would legit love to read fic about the James Hickman era of Stoneybrook.
