Sunday morning.
And I may or may not blog again tonight, depending upon when I return from Ann Arbor (after dropping off my daughter at her mom's house).
But I'm blogging here and now:
_______________________________
1:38 p.m. Chapter VIII is four pages long.
1:40 p.m. Beautiful demonstration of how to "show, not tell" how Elizabeth feels at dinner.
1:41 p.m. The other side of "pride" :)
1:42 p.m. And description of Elizabeth in dialog of other characters :)
1:45 p.m. And, for the benefit of the readers---who are, obviously, reading a novel---the characters all state which of them like reading and which of them look down upon it :) This one does seem to be a cheap trick, though.
1:47 p.m. Oh. I miscounted the pages again---this chapter is actually six pages, not four :(
1:51 p.m. "... and the modern languages"---yes! :)
1:51 p.m. And now, Darcy on the importance of reading :) so it wasn't merely a cheap trick to quickly divide the characters into two groups, after all :)
1:54 p.m. Done.
