Ah, well. I can always get to it later. :)Dianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02957349442523993974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28411057.post-35542397324615652852012-03-01T20:03:17.583-08:002012-03-01T20:03:17.583-08:00I really liked that line from Anna as well.

Richardson was writing moral novels to teach young women how to behave, so I suppose he wanted to scare them off so they wouldn't be swayed by a young man looking to lead them to ruin.Lindsey Sparkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03654365166738983077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28411057.post-52879303493409731092012-03-01T16:14:24.196-08:002012-03-01T16:14:24.196-08:00I think Clarissa has that inner strength that is n...I think Clarissa has that inner strength that is not always noticeable in the meek. I think she will surprise everyone in the days to come.<br />That was a cruel scene and I look forward to knowing more about the background to this drama.<br />Should be an interesting March!Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09391899740930810224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28411057.post-68432017010933637522012-03-01T13:03:59.900-08:002012-03-01T13:03:59.900-08:00It will be interesting to see what these men have ...It will be interesting to see what these men have to say for themselves. I assume we should hear from at least some of them soon. Anna is immediately likable and I'll be glad to read more of her letters, too.<br /><br />I'm a little confused as to why Clarissa must be married so quickly, but assume it must have something to do with money /property left by her grandfather.JoAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13691864361197071517noreply@blogger.com
