The list of characters I don’t like is a lot longer than the list of the ones I do like….

Entering the world of a classic book requires patience. I have to ask what the book wants me to pay attention to, and I admit I was paying attention to the wrong things at first. I thought the sisterly relationship important and missed the subtle set up to a very foolish marriage. I’ve been back and forth through this book a bit and I’m finally feeling connected to the characters.
