Reasons to read The Shuttle by Fances Hodgson Burnett:

It's written by the same author who wrote The Secret Garden, and A Little Princess. She actually wrote a lot of really good novels aimed more towards adults (and a bunch of others for kids as well!) If you liked any of her other works, you'll probably like the magic and life woven through this book as well!

There's a female protagonist who's strong- not in the "she fights well" type, but in the "she thinks things through and takes charge and has a sound head for business and gets stuff done" sense.

The primary antagonist is a well written and truly despicable villain- not some larger than life prettyboy who commits war crimes, but the kind of villain you could meet in your everyday life. He's just a regular guy who makes awful choices and hurts those around him.

There's a complicated romance. It's not one of those "guy and girl meet and fall instantly in love," but a "guy and girl who say they would absolutely never want to end up with someone like the other person fall in love."

The main character has a healthy relationship with both of her parents, who are both alive!!!

There's a really, really great father-daughter relationship there too!!!

There's a typewriter salesman from America and everyone loves all his Americanisms and good nature. (Dracula readers: if you like Quincey Morris, you'll probably adore G. Selden!)

The foreshadowing throughout this entire book is incredible. Even on my fifth readthrough, I'm picking up on things I hadn't noticed before.

Narrative foils! The comparisons and contrasts that can be drawn between Sir Nigel and Lord Mount Dunstan are mind-blowing, and Burnett did a wonderful job highlighting them.

There's a really adorable side-couple and they are so lovable they hold a place in my heart even though they only show up in a couple chapters.

Banter. There's flirting veiled by banter. There's insults veiled by banter. There's so much witty banter in this book.

I don't want to spoil the ending but everyone gets exactly what's coming to them, and it's got a very satisfying conclusion.

There's so many beautiful, poetic quotes in this book.

There's a really good found family relationship between one of the lords and a vicar who's basically like a father and also best friend to him.

I could go off for hours about how amazing the heroine's primary love interest is, but I'll just say this book has given me such high expectations for men.

There's a bit of a love triangle, but it doesn't take up too much presidence in the plot, and it's written in such a way that even the readers can easily see both options as appealing

It starts out a bit slow, but the pace picks up as you read, and a lot of engaging plot twists, so by the end you're on the edge of your seat!

You can find it for FREE on many ebook sites, like Google Play Books, and it's also available for FREE on Project Gutenberg!

If you like rambling about books with people, I will absolutely ramble about this book with you. I could talk for hours about this book.

Tl;Dr: The Shuttle is a criminally underrated book and your only regret will be that you didn't read it sooner!

Slight trigger warning: This book deals with domestic abuse, neglect, and manipulation, which is based on actual abuse the author went through. As such, a couple chapters may be triggering for some readers who've been through similar scenarios. There's also some violence in the climax, and even though it's not described in too much detail, it can still be a bit heavy.

Ok i too have jumped on the Shuttle bandwagon (does it count as a bandwagon if it's just among your mutuals?)

It's pretty good so far but the thing is the lady reading it on the LibreVox audiobook sounds like Gertrude Robinson so for the entire first few paragraphs where it talks about the strings of fate weaving my brain would not stop going "Web statement??? 👀👀👀"

I do not think frances hodgson burnett intended to be writing about a cosmic horror

#tma #the shuttle #shuttleposting #now i want to actually go back and compare the audiobook voice with Gertrude's to see how much they're actually similar #It doesn't help that Ive decided to consume it in the form of 'listening while playing minecraft' #which is also the way I consumed most of TMA lol #I'm two chapters in rn

more like SHUTTLEING THIS FIST TOWARDS YOUR FACE- mount dunston at some point

i will never understand why more people in their 80s don't commit felonies. you reach that age and surely there's something illegal you always wanted to do but didn't bc Consequences

dammit, GO FORTH GRANNIES!!! rob an armored car! hold up that bank! tunnel your way into fort knox! what are they gonna do, sentence you to 20 years? good fuckin luck with that

#mine would be a coordinated museum heist utilizing the lifetimes of experience and diverse expertise of my fellow nursing home residents #also there's Karl the orderly. his skill is he drives the shuttle van #technically he shouldn't be enabling us but he thinks it's a good enrichment activity #heck debra hasn't been this excited since her son flew in from australia. #plus Karl figures formulating an elaborate heist is better brain exercise than the puzzle books they keep in the resident lounge #all the sudokus are half finished anyway #update: upon consideration my second choice is just. MASSIVE credit card fraud.

There are two wolves inside of you

One of them is broke and wants to save money

The other one wants to own hardcover versions of books

#trying to find a copy of the shuttle #and like yeah paperback is easier to find and cheaper #but like of all books this one would be a nice hardcover to own #*cries in poor* #the shuttle

She did not shrink back, though the pupils of her eyes dilated. Was it the wildest thing in the world which happened to her—or was it not? Without warning—the sudden rush of a thought, immense and strange, swept over her body and soul and possessed her—so possessed her that it changed her pallor to white flame. It was actually Anstruthers who shrank back a shade because, for the moment, she looked so near unearthly.

“I am not afraid of you,” she said, in a clear, unshaken voice. “I am not afraid. Something is near me which will stand between us—something which DIED to-day.”

#I was gonna draw the full scene with Nigel too but then I remembered that I actually do not know what he looks like #so I just did betty #fun fact!! I based Betty's riding habit off of pictures of an actual extant riding habit on the Met museum website! #(though idk if hers would be fancier or not) #oh an her hairstyle is based off of an illustration of several women on horseback in that time so that's semi-accurate too! #I didn't give her the hat/veil that she would have been wearing because I couldn't get that to look right in the drawing #but hey maybe just it fell off when she fell off her horse or something #the shuttle #jessica's art #oh yeah also I spent like 20 minutes examining the book for details to clue me in to when it took place so I could be accurate lol #I know it was written in 1907 but some parts of it made me wonder if it was set before then so i did the math #judging from the references to nigel being raised in the early victorian era my best guess is probably between 1870 and 1890!

"Ice Cream"

The Shuttle drabble for @monthly-challenge day 14!

Since the shuttle first began its weaving, families have always been families. Little boys have always been little boys, and grandfathers have always sought to spoil them.

Reuben Vanderpoel was no exception to this rule, and on his visits to England, he would dote on his grandson. An annual trip would be taken into town together— just Ughtred and his grandpa Reuben— to see a show, to the toy store and the pet store with all the weasels and dogs.

And at the end of the day, they would always stop and get ice cream.

Grandfathers have always been grandfathers.
