Because holy wow.
(Spoilers, obvs, if you have not yet seen the first ep of season 3).
I can't quit Jennifer Echols . Not that I really try that hard, but I read her new ones and often feel as though I'm still searching for that one in possession of that certain something that will make me feel the way Going Too Far did. Like I couldn't put it it down. And definitely like I didn't hate either of the main characters after the fact. Well, I found it with Such a Rush . I read this 300+ pager in a single night, which clears up the question of whether or not I couldn't put it down. And I finished it definitely not hating either of the main characters. I didn't finish it loving them both unreservedly, though. I loved Leah with my whole heart from page one and that never changed. My feelings regarding one of the Hall brothers remain complicated. More to come on this in a bit. On a side note, I'm delighted that Such a Rush is Ms. Echols' hardcover debut. It's a meticulously designed book, a pleasure to hold in my hands as I stayed up way
This is probably the best season so far. Sooooooo worth the 2 year wait. Exceeded all expectations. Too good. Too good.
ReplyDeleteAgreed. I was just so very happy to be back with Sherlock and John.
DeleteIt's so good. Episode 2 is great too. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI loved Episode 2! The whole toast was . . . epic.
DeleteYea. Stinks to be her, right? :)
ReplyDeleteHehe
DeleteLOVED Sherlock!!! Season 3 is an amazing one. Every single episode.
ReplyDeleteReally looking forward to the 3rd one. Though then . . . the void. *sob*
DeleteThank you so much for this! I can't figure out why more people aren't talking about this particular scene! :) And when I was watching it was so taken back by what was actually happening that I missed all that swagger... the coat flip, the hair ruffle! Oh my! And now I'm totally convinced that Sherlock truly DOES like Molly. He does, he does!
ReplyDeleteRight?! It's all I can think about. Lol.
DeleteThe swagger . . . I die.
I just about died, I turned so green--and oh my good lord, that coat flip...
DeleteThe coat flip . . . sweet mercy.
DeleteI'm officially now a Sherlock lover (and his coat) ;) Watched the first episode of Season 3 and fell hard.
ReplyDeleteHis coat is its own character and deserving of all the love. ;)
DeleteLoved this scene! Although I think I liked Moriarty and Sherlock even better. This was a great episode as were episodes 2 and 3. It's hard to decide which I like best. I think episode 2 probably but episode 3 also has some incredible scenes.
ReplyDeleteOh, man. The Moriarty/Sherlock one was brilliant. I'm kind of saving Episode 3. Hate when it's over.
DeleteWhile I did not love the S3 first episode as much as I had expected, I was amazed by some scenes, this being one :)
ReplyDeleteYeah, this one is hard to be indifferent to. ;)
DeleteHands down, my favorite part of that episode.
ReplyDeleteUm, yes. I mean, the Sherlock/Moriarty kiss was second. But not exactly a close second . . . ;)
DeleteThanks, Angie, for posting this. Definitely my fav scene from the first episode. Am also convinced that Sherlock does love Molly, and love the way Suey summarized the allure of this scene: swagger, indeed. Quite the heart throb! (I could just replay this over and over...)
ReplyDeleteI know! I know . . .
DeleteYaa..still haven't watched this but...*gulp* I..I must. Immediately. *stares at screen*
ReplyDeleteThanks for this...HAPPY FRIDAY TO ME!
Immediately. Off with you now!
DeleteOkay. So it's totally normal to have watched this, pressed the rewind button and re-watched it again for, I don't know, about a hundred times already right? I mean it's not just me right? (please tell me it's not just me..) ^___^
ReplyDeleteLoved everything about this scene... from the way he released that buckle and then fixes his coat, and oh my gosh, the hair shake... and THAT KISS. *Dies a happy fangirl*
Totally and completely utterly normal. Not just you.
DeleteEvery detail is . . . I mean, come on. It's exquisite!
