I THINK I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE UP TO IN BUSMAN'S HONEYMOON (if indeed you are reading Busman's Honeymoon??)

Haha, I am! There is a lot of French, though! I'm in the first part.

Also you did not oversell (view spoiler)[how awesome the dowager's diary is. (hide spoiler)]

YAY.

ISN'T IT? SERIOUSLY. Some days I sit down and read just that part. I LOVE IT SO MUCH. That whole section - with the letters contrasted with the dowager's perspective - is so, so excellent.

And then there's this awesome part by the sundial toward the middle. Let me know when you get there :)

Her perspective was SO GREAT, especially in regard to Harriet, since Harriet has been so self-contained about her feelings.

Ahhhh! EXCITED. I think I'm going to buy all the Harriet ones in hard copy and re-read.

YES.

That's what I have, all the Harriets in paperback! Totally worth it.

Why use Google Translate when you have me??

Because sometimes you cruelly stop emailing me for the night!!

That is mean of me, I'm sorry.

You're a much better translator, though.

Ahhhhh I want Mireille's translations, too! YOU BOTH HAVE MY EMAIL ADDRESS!
