I'm still with you, despite a few wobbles.

Things did pick up when Clarissa left her house but they've entered into another period of wobbly stability, with the possibility if marriage being waved around as a possible development and being snatched away.

I was very suspicious of the uncle's envoy because Lovelace had already communicated that there would be in an interesting development - but he commits to the bit so thoroughly, it still surprised me when he turned out to be another one of his flakey friends.

While I can't say I'm leaping with joy to my Clarissa, there are times when my attention does perk up and some of these letters were particularly engaging - Lovelace is such a strange character. Missing the gibes of Anna Howe though.
