This book taught me that “I know I shall probably never see him again, but I cannot bear to think that he is alive in the world and thinking ill of me.” is from the 1995 BBC Pride & Prejudice and ISN’T IN THE BOOK AT ALL?? Gun to my head I would’ve said that line was in the book even having read it multiple times. WHAT??

“Eucatastrophe, in Tolkien’s words, is “the good catastrophe, the sudden joyous ‘turn.’ ” In mine, it’s the moment in a story where, when it seems like all is lost, that things are going to be awful forever, that the only possible endings are full of misery and despair, something good happens.” Everything works together for your good! Adore this book for using Anne of Green Gables to illustrate this.
