But I do appreciate your diving into Trollope (I haven't yet had the pleasure, although one of his sits on my own TBR shelf). Great review! I look forward to perusing more historicals here.Margaret Pinardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08872588140938699741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553028.post-10323634620423712342015-03-20T10:49:52.814-05:002015-03-20T10:49:52.814-05:00I really enjoyed this book -- I think it's one...I really enjoyed this book -- I think it's one of my favorites of the stand-alone Trollopes. I do agree about Mrs. Prime, she's pretty hateful. I do wish Trollope had made her a little less one-dimensional -- why was she so bitter? I was also a little uncomfortable with some of the anti-Semitism during the election, but overall, it's a darn good Victorian novel. I also recommend Ayala's Angel if you want another good stand-alone Trollope. And I'll look for The Belton Estate!<br /><br />Thanks for linking up your review to the Back to the Classics Challenge!Karen K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13483190930383406559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553028.post-75830400122195195412015-02-15T08:12:25.551-06:002015-02-15T08:12:25.551-06:00I've loved all of Trollope's books I'v...I've loved all of Trollope's books I've read yet (The Warden and Barcehster Towers) so I'm looking forward to reading more in the future. He has a ton though! I didn't realize it until I was trying to add them all to my Goodreads "to-read" list. Lois TinĂºvielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01113667315479652015noreply@blogger.com
