Shhhhhh I know it's late
Chapter 17SIR THOMAS AT LAST. THANK GOODNESS.
And lord did I feel Fanny in this chapter. I have been that person who everyone complains to. (I've also been the person helping the guy I like and the girl he likes hook up. No wonder I loved this book in high school.)
I really do like Mary, and I'm glad she doesn't get an unhappy ending. She's selfish, but so is most everyone else in the book. I think I like her best of everyone (outside of Fanny) because she has the greatest perception of other people's feelings. She may care more for her happiness + her creature comforts than other people, but she at least is aware of what's going on around her.
