Sense and Sensibility Chapters 19&20 (Spoilers up to Chapter 20)

I’m not feeling the best today, sorry folks. Beware prompts of uneven quality. Oh, and for those who recognise it, I hope you have a good Easter weekend.

**Discussion Prompts:**

  1. Edward is leaving after a week, and is gently chided that maybe he should get a job or an occupation or a hobby. Wild. He’s a gentleman, that wouldn’t do. Elinor seems to take his departure well. Would you have chosen army, navy, law, church, lazing about Oxford(!) or something else entirely?

  2. New characters! What do you think of them?

  3. A wet morning with St John and company. What’s your preferred way to pass inclement weather?

  4. A little background and gossip on Willoughby, Col Brandon, and missed connections. Oh, and who on earth are the Westons. Are you holding all of the information and connections together? It’s all getting a bit knotty. Have a good weekend folks.

  5. Anything else to discuss?
