Well, that's reprehensible, but it doesn't land hard because the premise of the whole scene is so unbelievable. No matter how dark, she should know his voice at this point. And it's so weird the text acknowledges the problem with his treatment of Kitty but is more worried about the reader thinking he's unmanly for accepting expensive gifts from a woman.

ok, not just me, apparently I am in the famously boring middle chapters. sources disagree about how many more I must suffer thru before it gets good again.

Huh, I didn't realize we got that bit of info so early in the book. Def some very wtf behavior from Athos. Aramis's chapter was more entertaining.

So, that exchange w Mousqueton? was the first thing to bear any resemblance to the conversations in Brust's Dumas pastiches.
This is going slower than I expected, not because I'm not loving it, but I seem to have less time to read lately. Must find and destroy the time suck.

Oooh, Milady coming up. Chapter titles are an underappreciated feature in novels.

should we rate books by how annoyed we are when we have to set them down?
