He has no address for Josephine ?!
Yet he continues to write
Sebastian π
AND JOSEPHINE nooooo!!!!!
Now what?
#SUNDAYBUDDYREAD
Stay away from Josephine she reads too many books π making her capable and gasps superiorβ¦ the lady who reads too many words voices them π―β₯οΈππΌ
Josie/Josephine
All the coincidences
Same middle name Emilia
Are they going to be the same? Are we time travelling ?
#SUNDAYBUDDYREAD
I don‘t hate mom I just don‘t trust her.
I refuse to let her guide it.
Wise?
Forgive yes forget no?
And
Nobody knows what they‘re doing
Everyone is trying to find their place
True no matter your age?
Good points for YA and us all?

The Novel
Useful backstory or distraction?
#SUNDAYBUDDYREAD
Arthur and Lorelai
Arthur - best of friend actually family
Lorelai - mother hen?
What do you think of them? Is she in love with Elias?
#SUNDAYBUDDYREAD
Eton school
Second time in a week Iβve read about this school
What are your thoughts on it?

#SUNDAYBUDDYREAD
Elias, not picturing him yet π
Bastard child -who inherits it all.
Josephine the FIRST lady to address him with plain honest speech, no wary application of etiquette between men and women in 1821. Well I like her already ..
Josie Josephine Elias
All of their fathers died ...
So Elias - thoughts ?
I like this storyline -you?
#SUNDAYBUDDYREAD
Josephine De Clare
Bundle of letters

Faith, the friend.
She was totally changed but an enormous opportunity.
You can‘t go back to who you were.
Can she still find a way to fit or are those days gone?
Would you do high school over?
Would you do it the same or different?
IMO high school is a necessary evil π΅βπ«
Not one thing would I do the same π€£
#SUNDAYBUDDYREAD
Josie, our main girl
Dad died, mom is π΅βπ«
Boy goneπ
Chose boy over friend Faithπβ¦.
Good way to start the story?
Also WHY this troupe of pick a boy over β¦. Everything an old friend of mine STILL says this you always pick the boy π.
Also grief again in February β₯οΈ I had no idea.
At any rate I think I like Josie, you?
#SUNDAYBUDDYREAD

Is friendship for life -a season -forever
Or do we have some of each ?

Hope to see you in April!
