Book Club, I challenge you to post about some of your favorite quotes from the book. Share the quote, maybe a picture, and a thought or two. It doesn't need to be long, but it might prove to be entertaining.
Here's one that I really liked:
"The gentleman offered his services; and perceiving that her modesty declined what her situation rendered necessary, took her up in his arms, without further delay, and carried her down the hill."
I just love the language of the chivalry of this line. Now, I know that the chivalry was on the part of a good-for-nothing money grubber, but the thought was nice. Too bad the act of manly compassion didn't work out for Marianne.
Oh wait, it did...just with a different guy.
Amen for chivalry.

Good idea, Katie! I liked the one you chose.
