Really fancy dropping in

This was fun to watch happen:

We are a small group of gender-critical women who read, talk, eat, and support each other.

Today we're meeting to discuss @HJoyceGender's Trans, and binge-watch Gentleman Jack, over a pot-luck lunch.#LadiesWhoLunch #RespectMySex #madangrycry

Wait for it.

I was just thinking, 'I really fancy dropping in on a random book group that might not even be in my city , of which I don't know the time or date, yet is maybe called something like JKR's Barmy Book Army.' You know how these random thoughts occur sometimes, mid-chapter. https://t.co/1akAcq1WNI

There has been a sign. I can't ignore the promptings of fate. To the Barmy Book Army I shall go.

I wonder how many of the members of that earlier book group are gnawing their fingers with rage and envy.

It’s also a very polite “Fuck you” to the author of _Manhunt_.
