“Two women together, each with the last-word instinct, have no power to cease; and, when the words are spent in explaining–not in scolding–conscience is not called in to silence them, and nothing but dinner, or a thunder-storm can check them.”
I know that, as a man, I have no business finding that sentence as hilarious as I do, but I’m going to say that, because a woman wrote it, it’s OK for me to laugh!

Ethel feels a bit like Anne Shirley to me, in the sense that she’s grown and matured over the course of the book, but the essence of who she is is largely completely the same as it was at the beginning of the novel. I love her so much! ❤️

I’m so glad there’s a sequel to this book! I’m not ready for my time with the May family to come to an end!

CMY’s portrayal of Norman’s doubts of faith was really moving.
