Agnes Grey is my inspiration. She is quiet, thoughtful, sensible and makes the best of the dreadful situations she's thrown into. And I actually enjoyed the romantic plot. ya, I know, I never thought I'd admit to enjoying a romance story either, but there it is. Maybe because it's hilariously relatable. There's no flirting. The entire romantic portion of the story consists of Agnes talking to Weston (or not) in church on Sunday and spending the rest of the week taking long walks so she can overthink the conversation or the little bits of eye contact. Anyway I enjoyed the book.
