Framley Parsonage by Anthony Trollope
3.0
3.5 stars
not sure how 600-page victorian novels are what get me reading voraciously but here we are. i’ve read a lot of trollope to get this far in the series, which is strange since i have been fairly middling on a lot of his stuff?? it just doesn’t hit emotionally as much for me as other quaint victorian novels. however the recurring characters that keep coming back in these books are really a big highlight for me and i really am starting to care for them. i might be too harsh on trollope because even in the books i didn’t like as much he’s an excellent storyteller and so fun to just ride along with. i think really loving the past novel (doctor thorne) made this one much more enjoyable as i loved seeing those characters again!
