chapter 10 - peace heaven???

she’s saying that the wife shouldn’t be the unpaid servant of the man. Agreed, but she was definitely never an unpaid servant. 😂

chapter 6 - Alva is my favorite anti-hero. I’m really enjoying hearing her spout off about men.

chapter 6 - alva said everyone should marry twice the first time for money the second time for love

Omfg Chapter 5 Gertrude’s diary

lol the description of William Vs house in chapter 4 is like someone went nuts on The Simms

chapter 3 on Alva.
This woman is such a character. The way the chapter ends with her party to impress Mrs Astor and says that there is nothing more taxing than being a leader in society. I both get it and I’m also snickering because by leadership she means throwing a $250,000 costume ball win a bunch of people are starving.

chapter 1 he punished his rivals because the law was “too slow” - did not care how many civilians he harmed

chapter 1 Mark Twains public scolding begging him to do better for society

chapter 1 - daughter gave him money to get his help investing it. And he didn’t give it back because he said women didn’t know how to handle money 😱
