I’ve been slowly making my way through Villette. Even with the audio on while walking and cleaning it’s still slow going… I’m not really falling in love with the character, in fact I’d quite like to slap her sometimes! @bookstadon

more catch-up. memorable lines from past chapters.
xxv - "gilded glance of Paulina's thimble"
xxvi - "I was no bright lady's shadow"
xxvii - "If you really are the nobody I once thought you, you must be a cool hand."

“Fate took me in her strong hand; mastered my will; directed my actions: I rang the door-bell.”

I love this sentence along with its great cadence: Mighty Fate stooping down to Lucy Snowe’s simple action of ringing a doorbell.

's self-assessments are so much more exploratory than culture-bound. this is her originality, that she is not happy with just plot devices (though I do love a good attic, a good letter, a good fainting scene, etc).

Their (Dr. John & Lucy Snowe) hanging out together reminds me so much of post-college period when there are still friends who are willing to go along with pretty much whatever you want to do/discuss.

Dr. John "was not perfect; he must have been very imperfect..." Sometimes, the language seems Dickens-like pay-by-the-word and sometimes the language is pure poetry.
