Welcome to the discussion post for week four! Don't panic if you haven't finished Mary Anne Saves the Day 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 Mary Anne Saves the Day.
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?
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!
The fandom tends to label Mary Anne as passive aggressive, but honestly, I don't see it - at least, no more than the other girls.
I think it's more from the later books. I see it especially in, like, #50 and #88 (both of which are Dawn's narrative, interestingly enough...)
Richard doesn't seem that strict to me.
Yeah, as an adult, I can totally see his perspective on the situation much, much more clearly - when as an eight-year-old (or even at 12!) the whole braids-and-clothes thing overshadowed his reasonableness :P
