I’d like to thank Juliet Stevenson’s dulcet tones for allowing me to enjoy this book. I tried reading this (on the beach? wild) ~3 years ago and was too confused by the setup of the story to bother continuing. 

I’m not a huge family drama fan but I enjoyed the sense of place and relatively small cast of characters. I think this novel is a glowing recommendation for going to Bath or wherever to look for a husband instead of picking between your two cousins (ick!).

The absolute messiness and self-destructive nature of the relationships reminded me of The Good Soldier.
