Status Updates From The Moorland Cottage

Aaaand it got a little preachy. I suppose that is always the risk when the theme is learning self-sacrifice: it is difficult to do that well. I am a little disappointed and unsure if I will continue. But I will definitely explore her other novels because I suspect their subject matter, plots, and themes do not leave much room for preachiness and that they will better provide a satisfying story.

And yet it makes you sorry, too, and makes you think about the difference between how someome ought to be treated and how they are treated.

How comforting it is!

It’s so lovely and quiet. Maggie is already a conscientious young woman, quite sweet and deserving better than she’s getting. And the tone is so nice and intimate, and the style is just what I need. And what a cover!
