I love the quotes you shared, especially the ‘but he never asked’ verse. So good!

I have TRIED to get into this. I did. I swear. but just…verse is not working for me. I would read 5 pages and then realize I have no idea what happened at all.

SO I am enjoying all you participators posts, and will have to take in Aurora Leigh vicariously

Oh wow, I would love to do this! But I feel too distracted and scattered to sit down and read narrative poetry. Maybe I will just enjoy your supremely humorous summaries?

Oh my goodness the “truth in courtship” line IRKED me. “First, let me do some arts-related misogyny and rudeness at you, and now you need to marry me because I told you ‘the truth'” UGH ROMNEY

I read those first two books a few years ago (it was when you mentioned how much you like the poem) and they were a lot more fun in this post than they were on my own! You have a talent (one my daughter also has) for laughing at stuff that just makes me weary.
